Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 4

Great shoe, great service but a little too much "bounce" for me. I am 87 years old and just a little unsteady so I can't use a shoe that has too much movement underfoot

Love the color selection

The black Bondi 5 looks so clunky and unattractive as the entire shoe is black, that I went with the Clifton 4. The white on the sole makes the shoe look less padded than it is. This shoe is comfortable but does not have the cushy, wide foot bed that the Bondi does. However, it is nice looking and offers good support on hard surfaces.

The Clifton 4 is the best I've worn since the original Clifton, possibly even better. I got these for a more cushioned daily trainer to compliment the Machs. At 7mo pregnant, I was starting to get shin pain wearing lighter shoes, and wanted a little more protection. The Clifton 4 helped decrease my shin pain almost instantly. Performance: the cushioning feels responsive and "springy", guiding you onto your forefoot and giving good energy return. My first run was an 8-miler, out of the box and my feet/legs felt strong the whole time, no hot spots or undue fatigue. Gone is the "mushy" feeling I felt with the 2nd/3rd iterations; I really feel like this will be a solid daily trainer, good for both shorter, uptempo runs and long runs. Fit/Feel: the toe box feels a little wider than with previous models, which I really appreciated. No blisters or sore spots! The ankle/midfoot fits securely and I like how the padded tongue helps lock the shoe in place. Bottom line: this is a great shoe if you want a shoe with a balanced combination of cushioning and responsiveness for a nice variety of runs. It's also super comfortable for daily wear when you're on your feet all day. I'll definitely be getting a second pair to rotate.

Wish I had bought these sooner!!

A friend intro'd me to Hoka, and I tried a pair and loved them. I now own three pairs and wear them for walking and ping-pong, and they're great. They're cushy and comfy and cool. So I can wear them all day while exploring the wine country or the museums in San Francisco. I liked ordering direct from Hoka--they had more styles and in the colors I wanted. They're keepers!

Love all the colors, lots of variety.

I wear my Clifton 4's daily. Just bought a second pair and trying to decide what color for the next pair. I love the arch support and overall comfort! I put them on for the first time and wore them all day. Perfect fit. I would absolutely recommend this shoe!

I walk three miles daily and also wear these sneakers for daily use. So very supportive and comfortable.

These were my first pair of hoka's and now I have two pairs of Clifton 4's. I absolutely love them and love the arch support. I have plantar fasciitis and had a really bad flare up recently and was having so much pain so I was trying everything to help. I work at an orthopedic hospital and notice several physicians wear these so I thought I'd try them out and eve since my feet have been so comfortable working 12 hours a day. I love them!

I've been wearing Clifton's for about 3-4 years now. I don't know if I could run without them. All of my knee issues have disappeared! Love my Hoka's!

None

I've been training and racing in these for years..7 marathons and 3 ultras! Wouldn't do a long run in anything else!

I have bad knees and I'am on my feet all day, these shoes saved my knees.
