I bought these shoes for my mother who battles cancer to walk in and she said she absolutely love them. Her feet used to hurt but she no longer feels that pain. Thank you HOKA! BTW i have 4 pair and sandals 5*

Although a bit too colorful to wear to work, I wear them everywhere else and I love them. The Cliftons are easy to slip on without a struggle. Excellent

I love them. This is my first pair and I am not disappointed. Very comfortable and my knees didn't hurt after walking.

I was trying them on and walking on carpet when I had a stagger step while turning and broke my metatarsal bone in my left foot. I am so crestfallen as I was so excited to use these "new shoes." I had just gotten off the cane, having had two hip replacements and a year of physical therapy, and these shoes were to be my "inspiration to get walking again" without crutches, a walker or a cane for the last ten years.

This shoe does not make me feel feminine in any way! They are wide and kinda clumpy. I do not like the wings on back of shoe either.

I have been wearing the Cliftons since the first model for running- so this makes 9 years for me. I also had the Evelon's that they discontinued so I am now strictly a Clifton wearer. I have always loved them and never had any issue with the feel. I bought the 9's and they have a stiffer feel to them- not as responsive as the previous models. I don't know why shoe companies have to mess with perfection. Go back to the 6-7 or 8. I will have to say shipping to where I am was fast. I am on Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands, it usually takes weeks to not months to get items over here but I received my new Cliftons in a week!! Thank you Hoka my 8's could not make it much loner!!

Hoka raised the collar on the Clifton 9 much higher than the Clifton 8 causing the shoes to cut into my ankle bones.

I have 2 under 2, and my right foot has been broken twice. I was desperate for running shoes that made me feel like I used to prior to kids and my breaks. My Clifton's have been a lifesaver. I can run without feeling the constant pain in my left foot, which I haven't been able to since my foot was first broken in the fall of 2021. I raved about them so much my husband even bought a pair for himself, and loves how soft, lightweight, and great to run in they are.

These shoes are amazing! After years of extreme foot pain, my feet don't hurt at all. Do yourself a favor, buy the shoes!

I bought these for my 18yo daughter and she loves them. Loves the feel and color. I initially bought a different pair of Clinton 9 because she like the color better but they only came in wide width and they were just too wide. We returned them and bought these and they fit true to size.

I started walking everyday to get 10k steps and these shoes are so amazing and so comfortable. I feel like I'm walking on a cloud.

The shoe is comfortable but not supportive on the heel so it strains my ankles. I feel my heels sink in the shoe and puts pressure on my ankles.

I'm on my feet for about 12 hours a day. I hear so much about this sneaker from co workers and customers. I assumed as soon as I put them on the pain in my heels would go away but nope. Maybe I got the wrong one or something. I suffer from plantar facsitis so I have bad heel pain. I've worn these 10 times and still suffer.

Absolutely amazing tennis shoe. Not like anything I've ever had. I'm a little on the heavier side and my feet always hurt after being on them for any length of time. Now that I have these I have zero pain in my feet and my back is hurting less. I've always had to wear inserts in my tennis shoes but not with these. Highly recommend.

For almost two years I've worn the same pair of Bondi 7 or Gaviota 3 Hokas daily - both as workout and daily shoes. Since both models have been updated, I decided to purchase the Clifton 9 as a replacement. They fit well with (and without) my orthotics, providing sufficient toe box room, a well cushioned, flatter and slightly stiffer sole (thinner maybe?), and slightly tighter heel. I've worn them and worked out in them (lifting and running) for several days and hm very happy with my purchase. I purchased the black and rose gold, which turned out to be less "in-your-face" than the black and white I usually wear. These really do look nice. Happy purchase!

I have bought expensive to cheap shoes. Thus far, these have been the most comfortable shoes i have ever worn. I am a Registered Nurse and am walking 10+ hours and my feet are not in pain at the end of my shifts. I watch my steps and i am 5-9 miles a shift. These shoes are a dream come true!!! (I do wish they were in my true aoze of 8.5, though!)

I've loved these shoes. I walk about 5 miles, everyday, and these shoes have been a lifesaver. I was originally walking in cheap Nike shoes but the soles of my feet became so painful. I made the jump and bought these. They not only allowed me to continue my walking goal, but it healed all the damage from the Nike shoes.
I normally wear a size 9.5, but these shoes feel a bit bigger. They were very different to walk in, in the beginning, because I've been so use to wearing shoes for lifestyle, not for sport, but now I love it. So I would suggest you try these on at a store before buying, just to get the sizing right.
