@@414peps not really. If you look at the stats, the torrent is a lot lighter and has a lower stack than the mafate. The mafate also has a vibram outsole and is a lot more expensive. The torrent doesn't really have a road equivalent from hoka, but I guess it's kinda like the zinal only not quite as technical. The torrent line still exists as well.
Ugh. The rock catching heel is on these too. Serious issue with the SG5 if you run anywhere with a lot of small stone debris, like the South Platte area in Colorado where I run.
Definitely! The Mafate Speed 4 actually handles very well for road use given the lug length. Most of my trail runs have a little road sprinkled in and I've had no issues. -Connor
Oh yeah, an even narrower shoe. Is that even possible? Why would the out of touch team at Hoka think that designing an even narrower Hoka trail shoe would be a great idea, wow!
I wouldnt worry to much about the shoe being too narrow. The net base is probably a little narrower but our testers have recently been putting this one through the ringer and they are loving the fit. Some of out testers have had issues with some of the recent HOKA offerings but everyone has liked this one. It definitely looks sleek but its roomy in the toe box and nice hold in the midfoot. -COnnor
Not a runner but I'm DJ and stand up for long periods of time. These are amazing! Do a lot of city walking and have never felt comfort like this!
Good morning Running Warehouse and all the runners. Thanks for this good video . Here is my like. A nice weekend for everyone.
Looks like the mach 5 of the trails🤩
The upper definitely looks like it.
Was gonna say this . Should've called it the mach trail
They’re even using the same layer of profly+ on top
So basically the Torrent. I wonder if this shoe absorbs the Torrent line now 😭

lol altra doing it too who started this
isn't the original mafate a lot more sturdy, bold, beefy, and no frills looking?
Clifton 9 is good Very good
❤️Cushioning ❤️
❤️More more more cushioning ❤️
Hi, how about water drainage? In my country some races have creek crossings too.
Which one would you prefer if you have to run on gravel?
Those are looking real nice.
Cool, can't wait
Literally got the challenger atr 6 for my first 50k race. The mafate looks fireayne next year but it seems to narrow for flat feet?
Can i use them on road too? usually the route i take has concrete road at the start and then loose small gravel and then off road trail.

so this is why the 3, just had its price cut a wee bit
Nervous about the mesh😬 SG5 lost some lockdown because of it.
How does he mess up the word Vibram so bad
'Vee-bram' is actually how you say it, it's Italian.
Drop date ?
Mafate Speed 4 launches on August 15! -Connor
oh yes!
Sweet shoes, such a prohibitive price.

My god these are hideous. Probably amazing shoes but dear Hoka design team, please take notes from the Mach 5.
