Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 6

I have horrendous back pain and wear Cliftons daily as my casual shoe. This is my 8th pair of Cliftons. Loved 3, loathed 4, okay with 5. The Clifton 6 cradles my feet and are beyond light, just like the 3's, which is a necessity for my back pain. However, after wearing these shoes for two weeks, I've developed persistent achilles pain in both legs. This is new to me and coinciding with the purchase of these shoes. Other reviews are saying they run a half size big. I'm going to get a pair a half size down and see if it impacts my achilles. I really hope so as I love everything else about them.

My daughters and I have ran in Clifton's since the Clifton one , this is not a bad shoe , it feels ok however , we thought it felt like the Clifton 4. Which I did not like , still like hoka, but will be returning these. Maybe we will try the rincon

I am terribly disappointed with my new Clifton 6's. There is noticeable less cushion than the previous model (Clifton 5) and the fit and toe box has changed! Buyer beware! Toe box is wider, narrower fit elsewhere and less cushion. The Hoka One One Clifton 5's were heavenly! They were like walking on clouds. Why change a great shoe and decrease the cushion????? NOT an improvement. Saddened by this change.

Color not true true to picture. I looked at them on two monitors and they look like two shades of blue which I liked. In person they are light blue and gray..

Not happy with the quick wear on the bottom.

I always buy women's Clifton wide, this time they were too narrow and hurt my feet. The sole was more than a quarter inch wider on my old pair which was the same model!! Sad to say I sent them back and will have to find some shoes that are more comfortable

I got these for work I stand on concrete floors for hours they were very comfy at first then they started to hurt my feet and continued to hurt for a couple weeks maybe now they don't hurt as much. I have gotten another pair like this before and they always comfy not sure I would get them again.

Inconsistent fit. Two shoes--same model and size--fit differently: one pair was at least 1/2 size larger than the other.

I've worn the Cliftons from the first generation until now. Unfortunately, the Clifton 6 is about a -size too long in the forefoot, which caused too much flex for my feet and toes. I've had cheilectomy surgeries on both feet, and the Cliftons (and Hokas!) saved the day. I was so disappointed when my feet started hurting on one of my hour-long runs. As far as fitting myself, I 've worked at two running specialty running stores, and I'm familiar with proper shoe fit, so this change in the forefoot length was very noticeable. There was also a change with the upper fabric (it also caused big creases with the extra length). I'm a solid women's size 8 in Hokas and other shoe brands. The rest of the shoe (throughout the midfoot and heel) feel great. Sad face.

The wide version was so roomy inside that i found difficult to keep my foot in control. It was literally swimming inside the shew. I had to return them

I absolutely loved the Clifton 4s. It got rid of my shin splints and my back pain when running. This edition is no where close to as good as the 4s. I ordered the exact same size as what I had with the clifton 4s. The shoes fit lengthwise and widthwise, however, the toe box is too large vertically and the opening for the ankle is too large. To make up for the size difference, I tightened the laces which resulted in the tops of my feet hurting. I am exchanging the shoes for the Arahis to see if there is an improvement. Hoka, please bring back the Clifton 4 design and in wide width! They were revolutionary!

warning that the shoe insert isn't sewn in so the sides stick out and will poke you and dig into your foot. didn't make for a comfortable walk.
