Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 7

My daughter hiked the trail with Hoka sneakers. She told me what a wonderful sneaker they were. I've been a believer ever since my first pair. One of the best sneakers out there, especially with people who have plantar fasciitis

It was suggested to order size 8 so I ordered the 8. It was too large so returned for 71/2. In New Balance I wear a size 8 Narrow. The Hoka was recommended by a podiatrist for less pressure on metatarsal .

They don’t feel as cushioned as the 4,5,&6 were. Definitely not as comfortable

Not as squishy as other Hokas, felt stiff

These are comfortable for brisk walking. Seem a little wider than past Cliftons- kinda approaching the Bondi width. I do not know how long they will last. Seem kinda cheaply made. Cushioning maybe too cushion-y. Seems like they will flatten out quickly. Looks good on my feet. Seems kinda fashionable. Not the quality of the Clifton 4 or 5. Oh well.

I RARELY size down for a sneaker, but this really had that feeling of wearing boats on my feet. Had to return. I wanted to try the bondi which I hear has a more cushioned fit, but the colorways were not as cute IMO. Maybe next year on those. I was maybe a teeny bit disappointed that these weren’t super cushy for how chunky they are. I was expecting a bit more because I had heard these were exceptionally comfy. I don’t know that I am super stoked to try the correct size based on the hardness of the sole.

I actually loved the plush comfort of these shoes, and thought I could use them for walking shoes. They are super cushiony, and that feels great. But as a runner, I feel these shoes are too extreme in the amount of cushion for me, and I actually felt I was between sizes. I usually wear a 9 in running shoes, but the 9s felt a little long and a little wide. The 8.5s seemed better in the width, but I was concerned that over time they may feel a little short. If you're a walker, you'll probably love these. As a runner, just know it's definitely a different approach to running shoes, one that I've not bought into yet, with the sprint length to half ironman triathlons that I participate in.

I typically wear the Arahi running shoe but opted for this pair since my size was sold out in the Arahi. These are very comfortable but do run slightly more narrow. I wish I would’ve purchased the wide and I think they would have been perfect. They are a very good running shoe and have plenty of support, just run slightly more narrow than the Arahi.

I want to give these a 100%, but they aren’t black. They’re navy. Not returning because they’re still awesome running shies that require zero “break-in” time.

Me: a Hoka One One die-hard fan enamored since discovering the Clifton 4. I think that shoe was perfection. I stock piled several pairs despite the remaining unfortunate color choices. With supplies diminishing, I reluctantly purchased a pair of the Clifton 5. It was not immediately comfortable but after several months it felt fine. Again, needing new sneakers I purchased the Clifton 7. Seems okay after a few days of wear. Not great but not horrible like the cheaply made 6 which I returned new not bothering even try out. Sometimes the 7 bothers the bridge of my foot but I am not sure if this is because they need to be broken in OR if it is the redesign. The only improvement is that Hoka now offers an all white version. I think the appeal of the all white aesthetic permits me to give the 7 a few more day of trying them out. But because I am addicted to the Clifton, I will most likely be forced to keep them. Change is good but only if greed is not the reason. Seems like Hoka wants the fashion set to become fans! The all white 7 is a step in that direction but comfort should be the no. 1 priority. After all these are running shoes- and for some of us both running shoes and work shoes.

Roomy toe box. Fit true to size. My 3rd pair of Hoka Cliftons. My all time favorite shoe for comfort.

The only reason for four stars was the tongue is attached to the shoe which annoys me but other than that, very supportive and as great as my old Cliftons.

I have what I consider to be wider than average feet although Ive never had to purchase anything over a medium width. These shoes feel wide to me and a bit long as well. I do like to wear a thin sock so maybe would be great for those who prefer thicker cushioned socks. I had to return.

These shoes fit fine and I really liked the bronze accents (vs white). But what just didn't work for me was the secured tongue; I apparently have wide/high tops of my feet, and not being able to adjust the tongue enough to get comfortable was a problem. Fortunately, I'd also ordered a pair of Bondis, and those are working fine.

These shoes are so comfortable for walking and running. They fell so go on your feet. Tons of cushion. I know 2 pairs of this version.
