These shoes are like walking on air. Lots of support literally, just what the doctor ordered. Actually I do have bad feet and my podiatrist recommended these. I don’t normally buy expensive sneakers , look for something on sale. These shoes feel as if they’re worth every penny. Don’t have too many miles on them yet so I’ll have to update my comment later if they don’t hold up well.
I used these shoes for walking. I normally get over 400 miles in a pair of Hokas . Around 100 miles I could tell they were wearing out. Tried to return them, REI said nope call the manufacturer, Hoka says return them to the store. Tried to file a claim. The Hoka site isn’t set up to take large files so I just gave up Don’t recommend the Clifton.
I usually buy the Hoka Bondi, but this Clifton 9 was on a nice sale, so I jumped on it. So far, I can't tell any difference between my Bondi 8 and this Clifton 9. Both are super cushy, light, and supportive. I continue to be very happy with Hoka.
My second pair of Clifton 9s. I love them. Highly recommend for running/walking on level ground. They're not meant for trails or uneven ground because they're a little elevated and could cause unnecessary risk for rolling ankles
The order arrived quickly. The shoe is fine. The color is not as it appeared on the website, ie. it's much lighter, off-white instead of tan. Disappointed but keeping as I'm abroad and need them.
Seems like solid shoe. have to wait on the mileage and see how sole holds up.
Excellent merchandise, customer friendly website and fast delivery.
My go to road running shoe. Works great for people with wider feet
have found HOKA shoes to be the most comfortable in my collection
