Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

Left shoe on outside sole was missing blue paint. Right shoe outside sole has large crease.

These shoes are over hyped just like the Bondi 8. I got both in wides and they were both way too narrow. The middle of my foot is extremely sore and still throbs to this day after wearing them for a few days.

I bought this shoes for work because I walk a lot but it is not comfortable or didn't fit my expectations so, I returned it ,am looking for other model has more cushion under my heel.

Even upsizing by two and getting wide these were still way too narrow.

Not enough cushioning and sole was not wide enough to offer me stability. I'm older and I walk five +-miles a day your shoes look great but definitely not accommodating to older users. I've tried many shoes and the Sketchers Long with arch fit meet my needs, I just thought I'd try something more stylish. Work a shoe for older folks there's quiet a few of us out here exercising.

I use it for walking. I have been wearing the Clifton's for many years and this is the first time I've been disappointed

The padding is comfortable. However the shoe is meant to be neutral but is for pronators s it pushes the foot inwards. My Achilles tendons were aching too.

I have been purchasing Cliftons for years and has always been my most comfortable shoe. The Clifton 9 I would not reccommend to anyone because they are not comfortable at all! I waited till I had worn them at least six times thinking they just needed broke in but they still are just as uncomfortable as the first time I wore them. I am sorely disappointed and will not be purchaing any more Cliftons.

I've had several people recommend this shoes to me I walk around 20,000 steps a day at work so I really wanted a great pair of shoes. Unfortunately after a week of using these shoes my feet are in constant pain. I really was excited for these shoes, but I'm disappointed. Maybe these shoes aren't a good fit for my feet I don't know.

Ordered another pair, I don't know why I expect something different from the same product

were them everyday but tight on my feet I was hoping they would fit better but really need a wide in size 16 not sure why you make every other shoe in a wide but 16

These are the most uncomfortable shoe I have ever worn. The outside souls of the shoes look cheap. Definitely don't see what the hype is over these shoes. They make your feet look huge.

Bring back the clifton 8 .. get better cushions.

Tried two different models and both gave me discomfort in the arch of my right foot. Kept feeling a digging, sharp pain on my right arch and realized it's the just the way the models were designed. Both models were wide width and still experienced that discomfort.

I've owned the Clifton 8 shoes and absolutely loved them. I loved them so much that I ordered the Arahi 6 and the Gaviotas. I love all of them for different reason and for different activities. Once my Clifton 8's wore down I went to order another pair and saw there was a new edition - the Clifton 9, that made improvements to the Clifton 8. I ordered them and upon Receiving them was already not happy with the stiffer feel of the exterior material. After wearing them for about a week and realized they are not as supportive in my opinion and feel much cheaper overall to their predecessor. After having them a little while now the sole is already wearing out and a piece of the tread peeled off. I love Hokas but am extremely dissatisfied in the quality, comfort, and integrity of this new arrival of the Clifton 9

Had to return twice due to manufacturing defects. First time trying Hoka, they seem nice and comfortable but have a quality issue. I had to reorder as both pairs on previous order were defective. Hoping it will be good this time or I will stick with N**e

Sole coming off

Stick went right through the sole of the shoe running on a gravel road 4 days after my husband got his, it's been awful trying to deal with the website to exchange them. And the regular fit is too tight, as he went by the suggestion on the website, going by his previous normal running shoe. And when you call you can't get a live person. Not happy.

Bought the shoes for my husband who is a large man and has wide feet - The shoes hurt his feet and he has tried both pairs that I bought and worn them each for 1 week and nothing has changed = he hates them.

I'll never understand why companies make shoes that don't fit feet. My toes don't end in a triangle rocket ship. Enough is enough. Shoe companies need to made shoes made for foot shape and comfortm

the padding in the left foot heel strike is much softer than the right, so it feels like i'm walking with one shoe one and one off. not that extreme but you get the idea.

It is okay

I don't what has changed in the soles of the shoes but it feels like something is stabbing me in the ball of my foot. I will be sending these back and going with another brand.

Very hard on the feet.
