Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 8

I have been hearing good things about these shoes from people so I went ahead and bought a pair and have to say I'm pretty disappointment. There is barely any support and the shoe feels already "worn in" like there isn't any cushion on the bottom. Bought them for running/walking and my feet hurt after everytime. Will be sticking to On Cloud shoes from now on.

sorry cannot wear these shoes. i wear a wide and for some reason these shoes have something in it that rubs on the arch of my foot.

shoe was too narrow and everything with a wide was backordered...moved from hoka

First running shoe I've ever returned. I wanted to love them but I had blisters on both feet in the heel area. They fit appropriately so wasn't an issue with size.

Must have been made cheap. The shoe tongue sewn to the sides of the shoe giving them a tight fit.

These seemed so amazing at first. They felt like a cloud in the store. I don't know if they are just too soft for my feet, but they fairly quickly (within an hour) make my feet ache when walking in them. I bought them to run in and have yet to try that. A friend recommended them after hiking across the Grand Canyon in them. Really bummed they don't work for me.

First time ever they totally sent wrong item and size. Must have been having a bad day.

I was told that this product was great for those who have flat feet and planters facitis. I walk alot and after a few hours my feet were hurting maybe the salesperson sold me the wrong shoe

I'm on my feet all day for work and many people rave about these so I caved and ordered. I have narrow, flat feet and tend to overpronate when I walk. I even took the quiz and this is what was suggested. Horribly uncomfortable. There is something that sticks up on the arch that hits almost half way in my foot and I don't have wide feet. Would not recommend if you have flat feet, you will be disappointed.

I loved my Clifton 7s. Had them for 1.5 years with no issue. I don't run in then, but I wear them for everyday use around the house. I hate these Clifton 8s. Idk what the difference is, but I have constant aching arch support. Idk if it's a QC issue or what but I do not recommend.

What I love about this product, which I purchased in ALL WHITE: the fit, the strength, the weight, the design. What I STRONGLY DISLIKE about the shoes: They DISCOLOR TO YELLOW in parts! Specifically, the tongue, the back part over the ankle, the top third of the toe line! I've worn them for over one week, so too late to return. The patchy discoloration started on day 4..

After hearing rave reviews about these shoes I decided to buy a pair. After wearing these shoes all day at Disneyland, my toes were covered in blisters. Not sure what went wrong for me, but for sure this was a big disappointment

I feel like the 7 was superior in many ways to the 8.

The Clfton 8 Hokas aren't comfortable. I ordered regular width because I have skinny feet and the arch support is extremely raised and digs into my arches. I saw other people complained about this in reviews, but hoped they were exagerrating. They weren't. These shoes that are advertised as comfortable aren't comfortable. I do like the toe room and the look of the shoe, but the high arch support isn't tolerable.

I wanted this for walking as that is my favorite thing to do for exercise. Even tho they are advertised as being wide they were not. Wore them around the house and have gotten a corn (?) on the right foot little toe. Not happy with them. Love the color tho.

I was looking for a comfortable sneaker. These were suggested to me due to me on my feet all day for work. I was excited to finally have a show that would fit my need unfortunately these shoes were very uncomfortable. Something is hard in the show by the arch. I'm definitely returning these asap

The shoes is great for my bunions but my ankles didn't have the support that they needed. My ankles hurt after wearing it for 8 hours long.

I LOVED my first pair of Hoka's so when it came time for a new pair I decided to order the same size and model and skip the trip to the shoe store. HUGE mistake! If I hadn't had to unexpected run outside after my dog these would be going back. Very uncomfortable, and feel very narrow for what should be a wide width.

Personally, I've never had to "break in" tennis shoes. So when I got hokas after hearing everyone's rave reviews, I was a little disappointed. I thought "isn't it supposed to feel like I'm walking on a cloud?? Maybe it's me." I gave my shoes the benefit of the doubt and gave them a little while to break in. Here we are 1-2 months later and the inner part of my heel still looks like someone took a cheese grater to it, and not the good kind in a pedicure when they do it to remove dead skin. I workout consistently and go on walks with friends and maybe it's the way I walk with my feet rolling slightly in, but I truly believe these shoes were designed wrong. The gap between the insoles and the wall of the shoe is just big enough to create a massive blister on my foot and I feel it every time I walk. I paid way too much for these but it's too late to return at this point, I've worn them too much. My friends recommended the other lines of hokas but I loved the color of these so I thought "it can't be that different right?" Boy was I wrong. I'm more than happy to switch back to my ASICS that lasted me 2 years before I'll buy another overpriced pair of hokas.

Comfortable shoe made for running but felt weird when standing still. The arched sole felt like I was rolling backwards when I was standing.

If you have narrow feet these are for you! But, if you are like me and have wide feet, not even the wides will fit your feet. I bought these in a 8.5W or 9W, and my feet were sitting on the mesh part of the shoe bc they were so skinny. I also was stepping on the outside of the insert as my feet were too wide for the bottom. Really a shame but otherwise made well.

The heals really hurt when wearing this shoe.
