Love these shoes- they are comfortable and have a lot of support for working in a hospital where I am on my feet for 12 hours! However, I got these shoes at the end of June and last month the backs inside the shoes started peeling and ripping. This was disappointing to me as I have only had them for a couple months. Other than this, the shoes are great!

Couldn't really judge this shoe. Ordered my normal size but was way too big. I had waited over a month for this color in this style because it was on BO. Then so disappointed that it didn't fit.
Did the online exchange as instructed and choose the smaller size. Said it was I stock, sent the shoes back day after I got them and that day got an email that the color I wanted was on BO again and they credited my account. Why not call and ask if I wanted to wait or get another color???
Very disappointed in the lack of customer service too!

I purchased these sneakers so I could walk several Disney parks for my honeymoon. Unfortunately 2 days in the sneaked gave me the worst blisters I have ever had, to the point where I had to switch to my Sanuks. My husband has the same pair of sneakers and absolutely loves them; so maybe it was just me.

I purchased pair of Clifton because I wanted a pink color, the shoe doesn't have very much support on arch and heel . The toes area isn't very wide.
I have 3 pairs of Bondi 7 and I love them, they are made with better quality I am sorry that you stop making this style.

I have a bone spur on my heel. It really was not cushioned enough for me to be able wear these because they are too wide and slightly bigger than a normal shoe I would buy.

I have about 6 pairs of Hoka and LOVE them! This pair, although the same size I have for all my Hoka's feels small and by the end of the day my feet hurt a lot. Bummed but likely a fluke. Should have returned them but super busy schedule got in my way. I do love Hoka and highly recommend especially for Planter Fasciitis!

These are for daily, everyday comfort, so not so clunky looking like other Hoka running shoes - needs better arch support. The arch was moulded into the outside shoe plastic, but not very effective for inside arch support. I would have needed arch inserts. Color was nice. I felt my foot move around despite tight lacing - I think the mesh over the top of the shoe is stretchy, and I prefer a snugger feel all around my foot. I tried to go with them, but they weren't really what I wanted.

I did not like this style of shoe. No extra support/enough arch support for just walking and being on my feet.

Pros: Obviously the aesthetic! They are really chic
Cons: Didn't even last a full year, I haven't had a single other sneaker that lasted so little time.
I trained for a half marathon and these shoes made my feet blister terribly. The entire sole of both shoes just fell off today on my walk home prompted by nothing and that was very embarrassing. If you want the look, it's second to none, but get ready for multiple purchases. :(

I purchased these after having a total ankle replacement, and other friends recommending, with the TAR I cant beat up any shoe to terribly bad!! After 5 mo the bottoms began pealing apart. I wrote Hoka customer service explaining the problem over a month ago and still crickets. So Im back to Sketcher where I always had a comfortable shoe that held up reasonable long.

I have bought several pair of this shoe, this one ran super big.
Got next size smaller and the width is tight.

The sneakers were very comfortable; however, I did return because the color was much brighter than I thought. Won’t go with much of my color schemes!

I was cautioned that your sizes run small and indeed, while my regular size is 5, I needed to order a 6 for a good fit and I had to make an exchange.

I ordered the Clifton 8 to compare to the Brooks Ghost 14 and decide which one to send back. The Hokas took over a week to ship out, and it was probably about 10-14 days before I received the shoes. By then I already decided to keep the Brooks, since I wanted to get running again. Luckily, the Brooks ended up being the better option for me anyway. Even though I ordered a wide width in the Hokas, they were still pretty narrow when I tried them on. Otherwise they do feel like they'd be comfortable shoes, though. Love my Brooks Ghost 14!

I have had the shoes approximately 3 weeks and I have worn them daily. At first they seems super uncomfortable but them seem to be getting better. I'm not sure what is happening with the shoes because the left one fits great but the right one may have a defect in the arch area. I am hoping that it resolves after use but not sure. I have only worn Brooks for the last 4 years but decided to give Hoka a try so far I'm not sure if I will officially make the switch.

I have always loved Hokas, so I feel weird not giving 5 stars. But on the Clifton 8, I am just not impressed! I have 2 pairs of Clifton 7s and Rincon all have been wonderful. This shoe is a lot harder, not nearly as comfortable and my toes have went numb a couple times when wearing these! Shoe is not too big or small. Just not the same! Disappointing since I work in healthcare and use these to stand on my feet all day. May be a problem with just me though, I still love Hokas just disappointed.

These sneakers were instantly comfortable right out of the box. I really tried to make these work but I think because I have a high instep in my right foot from a car accident , the front seam of the tongue of the sneaker bothered my foot. I did order the wides based on some other feedback but I think since the toughest of the shoe was attached in each side is why was not good for my foot. I really loved them, the style , the overall design and cushion feel when walking. If you don't have this type of issue, these were well worth the money.

The shoes hurts my left baby toe. It's not the socks. Right food is fine.
Not sure if I would recommend.

I use this shoe for work which involves light walking and sitting. While the shoe itself gave me solid support and with the help of my insoles my foot feels better to walk on. But the quality of the shoe is not great. My shoes reflectors have literally fallen off on one shoe. Now I have a goofy mismatched set of shoes one with reflector and one without.

My heels hurt so bad these are by far the best shoes for that I stand on my feet for 10+ hours a day so I'm not sure if there's any shoes to eliminate that. Definitely would buy again.
