Hoka’s been busy. From the “illegally high” Skyward X to the Tecton X 3, release after release has made Hoka one of the most talked about brands in sports.

However, few drops this year have generated quite as much buzz of the shoemaker’s collab with haute running label Satisfy.

Technical, minimal and very popular

First released in August, the Mafate Speed 4 Lite Stsfy married the sensibilities of both brands, using the technical chops Hoka’s existing Mafate Speed 4 as a jumping off point.

The rugged trail runner was given a lightweight transparent upper, soft microfiber collar, lay-flat tongue and ultrathin speed laces, all contributing to a race-day-inspired makeover.

What’s more, the Mafate Speed 4 Lite Stsfy came in two streetwear-friendly colorways (brown Rubber and lime-green Sulfur) that broadened its appeal beyond just runners. No wonder the $210 shoe sold out quickly upon release, with secondhand sales as high as $750 on resell sites like StockX.

Now the collaborative sneaker is back for a victory lap before the end of 2024, and in two new colors: off-white Bone and dark-brown Coffee, both of which stay true to the collaboration’s pre-existing aesthetic, all the while minimizing distractions out on the trail.

“This collaboration with Hoka is about more than design,” said Satisfy founder and creative director Brice Partouche, “it’s about creating gear that amplifies the runner’s connection to the ground and the journey ahead.

“Each material and detail is there … to make every step more responsive and real.”

Pricing and availability

The new colorways are actively making their way to Satisfy and Dover Street Market boutiques in Paris, London, Tokyo and New York City with a retail price of $210.

They will also be available on Hoka’s own website from November 15 while supplies last.
