Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 7

I use these shoes for everyday wear including walks. I love the comfort while walking but am struggling a little with the elastic bands that go down each side of my feet. There is a little discomfort from them which kept me from giving a five star rating. I was going to order another pair but I want to first see if the bands loosen over time.

I wasn't to sure about spending so much on a runing shoe but to my surprise I am in Love with the shoe!! Best advice I have order half inch bigger and get the wide if your feet are wide at all

I love them

I didn't see the blue color on the tip of the toe. To me, this wrecked the coolness of the white/red look

While this shoe is nice and light it just doesn't cushion as much as I would like.

Too pricey but nothing unique about it. The cushion is not bouncy enough for the price

Very light and supportive.

I'm enjoying my Clifton running shoes. It's my third or fourth pair.

Need to get used to it.

Well made and comfortable. Properly sized. Shipping not good through UPS to Guam. Had to pick up. No delivery.

I am an ultramarathoner, averaging 65-100 mpw and weigh about 185lbs. I tried the first version, when it first came out and when it returned, no go both times. It was comfortable, but too squishy. I have tried on most of the other versions, but could not see myself running in them. I finally tried the 5 and those were pretty decent, they were more firm. I know many people like Hoka for their squishy marshmallow feel, but that does not work for me. I do like that they are max cushioned with minimal drop, but the squishiness makes the shoe feel like it is sinking into the ground and not providing good energy return or push off, in my opinion. I like the firmness to the 7, it seems to help me not get too sore in my knees, back and ankles, unlike in previous models, to include the 6, which has only about 45 miles and these have 65. Durability seems to be okay at the current moment, I only see slight wear on the outside heel, which is normal for most shoes. We will see, hope to get at least 350-500 miles out of them. I hope Hoka keeps the firmer sole and midsole.

I run 25-30 miles/week and am about to begin marathon training & so for they are excellent. The combination of lightweight & substantial support is great.

This is the first pair of HOKA's I've ever bought and I was impressed. The cushioned sole made me feel like I was bouncing on marshmallows. Although it took a second to get used to a heavier shoe than I was used to, the Cliftons gave excellent support mile after mile. This will be my everyday running shoe for my longer distance runs.

Running days are behind me, but this model is comfortable for everyday use and is great for walking.

These shoes are good for walking and comfy but if your trying to go out and do sprints, not the best. I've tried them on jogging and there ok. Mainly got these for work which require a lot of walking and standing.

This is my third HOKA and second Cliftoon 7. Greet for me, best I have ever had for sure. Only down side, and this is just me, they are a wide shoe ordered, but kind of tight. I will never truly understand variances in sizes and widths based on models.

Wide sizing was still too narrow for me. Other brands more spacious. Still, very good shoe and I will consider getting other Hokas

I wear a woman's 9, the colorway I wanted was backordered so after speaking with customer service I went with a men's 7.5. These shoes feel great! I'm an avid walker, mostly on paved trails but occasionally on unpaved. I will say - I have bad heel pain that I suspect is plantar fasciitis, and I expected these to help but they don't, I still experience heel pain unless I am wearing a compression sleeve (some shoes I still get pain even while wearing the sleeve, so these sneakers are an improvement from that). I am giving four stars because the heel pain persists, but overall they are lightweight, supportive, and make me feel like I'm walking on clouds.
