HOKA  Clifton 10 Road-Running Shoes - Men's

Soft and comfortable every step

This is my third pair of HOKA shoes, and was really disappointed. Previous pair was gaviota 5 size 10.5 2E This shoe is nearly 1/2 inch narrower and I have to return due to tight fit. Beware buying on line as shoe sizing is not the same.

I ran 4 miles in the Clifton 10 this morning and they felt great. The cushioning is soft and comfortable, even softer than the ASICS Kayano I used to wear. The support is solid, and the thick midsole gives me a strong sense of stability and safety. Overall, a very enjoyable ride.

This was my first pair of Hokas and Loved the look and comfort. BUT, after only about 10 wears they already started ripping at the seam of the sole and fabric. Not happy because i am in the Middle East for awhile so cant really return them or exchange. Want to love them but now i cant trust them.

Initially, these new Cliftons were great. And I am a big fan of the wider toe box vs the Clifton 9. But after only maybe 75-100 miles the foam has softened and become very unstable on the inside. Now I can't help but severely overpronate as the foam collapses (I'm a neutral runner with no overpronation issues). It caused intense pain in my knees and adductors - and switching to a different shoe fixes it. I have no such problem with other similar shoes (like the New Balance More). Hoka needs to rethink this shoe.

I use a Clifton9 9w as recommended by staff at a runniing shoe store and it is the most comfortable i have ever had. Bought the Clifton 10 9w and it is the again the best ever, I am 75 years old so i have gone thru a few pairs of shoes. Thanks Hoka for adding another colour blue to wide option.

As a lover of Clifton 9's, I was skeptical to change my shoe. This Clifton 10's are very comfortable, the toe box is ample, no rub or uncomfort at the ankle. The typical HOKA feeling of a cloud like step is still very much there, with some rebound. I'm not a fan of the launched colorways; I prefer more neutral options, which I'm sure will come later.

I had a few pairs of the 9's that served me well but man, these are terrible. I cannot believe how narrow they are, even though I purchased a "wide" pair. They're a neutral shoe but are especially unstable, possibly due to the narrow upper. I'll be taking them back and at this point, I think I'm just going to move onto a different brand - Hoka has only gotten worse and worse.
