Review for Zappos VIP Points (What's this?)
With the changes to the Clifton 10, I decided to go back to the Challenger 8. Hoka has not changed the shape and width of this shoe and it is as comfortable as ever. Not exactly the Clifton 9 but I will take it. I wish Hoka would stop changing their shoes so drastically. I have been a Hoka wearer for years and now cannot wear most of their new models due to the changes.

The Challenger 8 wide is wider than the Challenger 7 wide which I love. However, the midsole is much softer and squishier like a marshmallow, so I returned the shoe. I don't like soft midsoles and I don't feel they are safe on trails with uneven surfaces.

Those shoes fit me good, I will just have to break them in a little. With so many variations in athletic shoe sizing I have a problem in finding the correct size when buying them over the internet. But these shoes should work for me Ok.

Love the Hoka brand and these shoes, purchased for hiking, were comfortable the first time I wore them.
