I love love love these sneakers for running or a lot of walking. I had a lot of knee pain while running until I started running in my Clifton’s. This is my third pair.
I bought the knit version and was very unhappy went back my original version.

Purchased as a work shoe, omg, so comfortable right out of the box. They are like walking on air with support. I will,purchase another pair to wear outside of work. I for the black, they are really cute . Very happy feet and legs!

Between the Bondi and Clifton, Clifton is my favorite! Excellent padding without altering my gait. I’ve a difficult and high maintenance foot that appreciates good shoes only. This is my absolute favorite and it wears well with skinny jeans without looking like a big orthopedic shoe. LOVE IT

I've worn the Hoka One One Cliftons for a couple of years now. My average shoe size is an 8 1/2 W, but that varies with manufacturer. In these shoes, I wear a 9 W, but that's mostly personal preference with how I like a fitness shoe to fit. I like some wiggle room. I wear these shoes for walking, not running. They are much lighter weight than comparable shoes by other brands.
I bought them this time in Marlin/Blue Ribbon because the black was out of stock.

I'm flat footed and these sneakers give me excellent support since I push shopping carts up a very inclined parking lot during my work shift at the grocery store & my body doesn't feel out of line since I purchase these shoes...give me a try there worth ever penny!

These shoes are great. I bought them to try as being ultalight is a major concern for trekking through Spain - I plan on hiking 400 miles and will want to carry these for a break from wearing hiking boots - but don't want the additional weight. I think they will be fine.

I am a 61 yoa female who has recently started doing a cross fit style workout with a lot of running on the treadmill....I have never been a runner. I have lower body joint issues....BUT, when wearing this shoe I have no discomfort....none.....when ready for a new pair I thought I would try something sleeker and with a lower profile--my only criticism about this shoe--I ached after class wearing the OC brand....and then tried the lower profile HOKA...while it was very comfortable and looked good for walking it definitely lacked the cushion of the Clifton.....so, I came back to tried and true Clifton......I highly recommend this shoe.

Awesome comfort. As an RN (over 30+ yrs) on my feet many hours & walking many miles these shoes provide the vital cushioning we need! Priceless!

I started wearing Hoka brand 6 years ago. This running shoe fits the best, has great arch support and lots of cushion.

I wore out my Clifton 3’s and bought a pair of Bondi’s because my podiatrist recommended a slightly more stable shoe. I must have gotten a pair of Bondis that were a manufacturer’s glitch because they were so hard and stiff that my legs ached after running when they never did after runs in the Cliftons. So after over a month of trying to make the Bondi’s work I ordered these Cliftons...sweet relief!!! They feel great! Some reviewers feel that the toe box is slightly narrow but it’s perfect for me. I have small hands and feet (size 6 shoe, sometimes 5.5) so maybe that has something to do with it but these feel perfect. The Bondi’s I have I’ll keep for around the house but they are too stiff for running for me. Again, I think my Bondi’s are defective because they get rave reviews from almost everyone. I’ll stick with the Clifton’s for now.

This is the most comfortable tennis shoe I have ever worn! When I put on my other shoes after wearing the Hoka's for 2 days, I realized that my other sneakers were not very comfortable. Love the Hoka's!

I absolutely love these shoes! The footbed is supportive and great for a neutral foot! The toe box is wider than a Brooks Adrenaline series aahhh! The shoes are made in USA another plus! The fabric and design of the upper promote longer wear.

I normally try many, many pairs of running shoes before finding a pair that fits and feels comfortable. Finding the Hoka brand has changed all of that. I purchased the Clifton 5s after wearing out my Clifton 4s. They have plenty of room in the toe box for my wide feet and have moderate arch support. There is also a fair amount of cushioning. I also tried the Hoka Bondi 6 but found that there wasn't enough arch support for me, nor was there enough cushioning.

I stopped wearing Hokas a few years ago, but came back after mixed luck with other running shoes. These Cliftons are roomy enough to wear thicker running socks and are so comfortable I don't pay attention to them while running. I'm looking forward to wearing them for longer mileage workouts!

Much improved from Clifton 4! Granted, I purchased the wide width this time, but the more rounded toe box makes such a difference in comfort level.
I really can’t address the issue of arch support. My custom orthotics (which are quite thick) fit amazingly well!! I have looked long and hard for shoes I can tolerate—these have it all, including style!!!! Thank you, Hoka designers.

I have very troubled feet. Foot surgeries, metatarsal pain, and flat feet. I suprinate because of the bunion surgeries. These sneaks fit great and seem to have enough arch support and overall good stability for my problem feet without being to cushiony. My new go to athletic shoes.

This is my second purchase of the Hoka Clifton. I had a pair of the Clifton 4s and loved them. The 5s are just as good. I run on average 10-12 miles a week and these are perfect.

These were recommended to me by a good friend and her mother. These shoes are awesome and offer so much support and cushion. I do wear an insert Cur Rex insert because I need arch support for higher arches. These together are heaven.

Light weight shoe with good support. True to size and width. Have not had any heel discomfort when wearing these while exercising.
