Nice looking shoe. I wear a 9.5 in the Bondi, so I ordered a 9.5 again, hoping for another great fitting she. It runs at least a half size larger and is wide, making it a poor fit. My feet are not narrow by any means, but these were still too wide. Very disappointing. I wouldn't suggest buying Hoka shoes online. My husband and I also purchased the recovery slides and they were very large and very wide also. They had to be returned as well.

I was not planning to put a review. I already filled out whatever email I received asking about the return but something was wrong with these shoes?? There was something digging into the inner sole of my foot. So I wasn't even able to walk in then t comfortably let alone run. Maybe the sewing was off somehow?? I will have to go to a sports store and try some on that way and see what's going on.

I wore the shoe multiple times inside to try it out and it didn't work out for me. I have no arch so these shoes really hurt my feet.

i absolutely loved my clifton 7's and wanted to upgrade.. not realizing the 8s are heavier BUT also less cushiony.. how is that possible? also the heel slip modification was unnecessary... my heel slips out now when running .. guess new isn't always better. sticking to 7's!

Did not like this shoe at all will return to the Brooks Ghost in the future. I have worn the Hoka for 2 months and it shows a great deal of wear already. This shoe is too soft.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks Ghost

The shoe is not comfortable I cannot even walk in it. I don't have terrible feet but I do need comfortable shoes since I am on my feet all day. These are a no for me.

Even the wide-width option of the Clifton 8 runs way too narrow. It's a good-looking shoe and I love the aqua colorway, but that doesn't matter if they don't fit properly.

I have two Cliftons, the Together and the Atlantis. For some reason the tongue of the shoe keeps hitting the lower front of my leg on Atlantis model. I don't have this problem with the Together model. The tongues on both shoes look about the same length. I'm thinking about cutting the tongue on the Atlantis because it hurts pretty bad up to a point where the front of my leg was bruised.

I returned them very uncomfortable. I am not giving up I thin I just picked the wrong style for me. I will go to a store and try some on. My boss wears his everyday and loves them.

Clifton 8 is like Clifton 7, in that it is too narrow. No toe room.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks Ghost and Glycerin

I have PTTD and the Clifton is not enough support. I have purchased 2 pairs of the Bondi 7 and highly recommend them to help with pronation or any other foot problems. GREAT SUPPORT!!

I have worn Hoka Cliftons for years through several different model numbers. I put these Clifton 8's on and tried to go for walk. The toe box is more narrow so it squeezes your foot unnaturally. I do not have a wide foot, it is slim and thin. The tongue it too thick . Your made the heel trough less deep so my foot was sliding up and down and then the mid foot area caused actual pain. I got half a block and actually limped back home in pain boxed these up and they are coming back to you. First time I have ever had actual pain from walking in a sneaker. The previous model was perfect. I'm so disappointed and dont know what kind of shoe to buy now

I'm on my feet for 10 hrs a day and these shoes have no cushion at all. I asked for wide and they're not wide at all. Super tight on my feet.

Love the color and the style. Unfortunately, they just didn’t work for my relatively narrow foot. Even with my orthotics I felt like I was wearing a clown shoe. The toe box area is definitely made for someone with wider feet. I was so bummed, because they are super cute.

This shoe is very wide. I have small feet but usually wear wide in Brooks etc. Too soft. Hurt my hip when power walking on a treadmill the first day I wore these. I really tried to like them. I tried walking outside in them, jogging etc. The heel feels like it’s not wide enough & my foot is hanging over. This is the 3rd pair of Hoka One I tried. I tried the Bondi 7 & they were worse. I don’t understand the hype on these. Worst shoes I’ve tried in awhile. I’m going back to my faithful Brooks Glycerine 19 & GTS 19. Thankful for Zappos return policy & letting me try these until I get the right ones.
