When it comes to technical and avant-garde labels, names like POST ARCHIVE FACTION, CARNET-ARCHIVE, and SAN SAN GEAR usually set the tone. But in recent years, XLIM has been pushing the conversation forward—continuing its ongoing “episodes” series with the HOKA Mafate Speed 2 TS.

XLIM’s experimental design language merges seamlessly with HOKA’s trail DNA, reworking the HOKA Mafate Speed 2 TS in two colourways: “Peach Dust” and “Grey Foam”, both landing at SOLESTOP on May 15.

Inspired by the natural aging of materials, this episode’s release plays with time and texture. “Peach Dust” hits loud with fully wrapped, saturated tones, while “Grey Foam” keeps things stripped-back and understated. Hairy suede meets synthetic overlays across the upper, detailed with XLIM branding in embossed hits at the toe and heel. Down below, both colourways sit on a desaturated sole treatment—balancing a worn-in aesthetic with HOKA’s signature performance foundation.
