XLIM has a Two-Pack of Collab Hoka Mafate Speed 2 Pairs on the Way

South Korean fashion label XLIM is getting in on the running energy that’s dominated the first few months of the new year. After popping up on the radar of sneakerheads around the globe with an ongoing New Balance collab, XLIM is spreading its wings in the industry, adding a new Hoka collab to the mix, and the duo is getting out of the gate as fast as possible.

The XLIM x Hoka Mafate Speed 2 Pack features two monochrome colors of the Hoka running shoe, one in black and the other in blue. On both pairs, a mix of suede, leather, mesh, and synthetic structural panels sits on top of a super-stacked rocker midsole with a Vibram outsole underfoot for supreme traction.

So far, we’ve only seen a few select preview images from XLIM founder Dohee Kim, but we can see Hoka logos spread across the front of the toebox and XLIM branding hits on the lateral toe and the lateral heel in raised lettering.

Kim hasn’t given us a firm release date or retail price on the Hoka collab just yet, but he did add a classic “coming soon” caption to his preview, so expect them…soon. For all the latest Hoka collab news and drop info, make sure to download the Sole Retriever App.
