Questions answered
FAQ
What is the difference between Mafate Speed and Mafate Three2?
The Mafate Speed is a performance trail runner, while the Three2 is a lifestyle adaptation with exaggerated proportions and fashion-oriented materials. The Speed is lighter and more responsive; the Three2 prioritizes visual impact and casual comfort.
Is the Mafate Three2 comfortable?
Very comfortable for a lifestyle shoe. The oversized HOKA midsole provides excellent cushioning for all-day casual wear. It is one of the more comfortable chunky fashion sneakers available.
Can you run in the Mafate Three2?
It is not designed for running. While it uses trail-derived technology, the lifestyle modifications make it heavier and less responsive than performance HOKAs. For running, get the actual Mafate Speed or Speedgoat.
Does the Mafate Three2 run true to size?
Yes, true to size with a slightly wide forefoot. Consistent with other HOKA lifestyle models.
