This footwear should be renamed Cloud 9. They are wonderful. They fit perfectly and I can walk for miles and not have any foot discomfort. I have recommended them to many. Thank you

I love them. They are so comfy. I use them for my home workouts and I cherish them! I literally do not want to wear them outside to walk to the gym. That's how precious to me. As soon as Michigan is done with this snow, me and the Hokas will hit the pavement!

I finally decided to order these Clifton 9s and another pair of athletic shoes from On. I am a teacher with a bad back and nerve damage in my feet. Shoes can make or break me during a school day! So far, I'm VERY happy with these. I do with there were slightly more subtle color choices, as I would like them to coordinate with more of my wardrobe, but the bellweather blue is okay for most days.

Had these shoes for less than a year and the bottoms are completely tearing apart, multiple pieces of the soles/bottom of shoe have fallen off. The sole did not last more than 6 months. I work at a PT clinic and use these just for work and had to stop using them because it became a tripping hazard for myself and caused my gait to be off from pieces falling off.

Clifton's are the best shoe ever for everyday wear and for my runs and walks on the treadmill!!! The only thing I don't recommend them for is strength training workouts that involve stability exercises like squats. Super comfortable, I'm a forever Hoka fan!

I run every day and have worn Nike's for years ...... I wanted to give these shoes a chance because I heard good things about them and love the way they look. They are everything I hoped they would be...lightweight, cushioned, arch support and plenty of toe room. I couldn't be happier.

I have an older pair of Clifton's that my podiatrist recommended. I loved them because of the rounded toe. This pair I purchased I wish I had returned but it is past the date by months. I mainly used them for inside the house until I realized that the narrow front really was what was irritating my feet so they sat on the shoe rack for months and are almost new..size 7W in the white with blue trim at the bottom. If I could donate them I would. If Hoka has a donation place please let me know.

I've owned many HOKAs and there's something different about this pair. There's something stiffer/thinner/sharper about the edges/corners around the ankle and they dig and rub uncomfortably. I had reached such a point of confidence and loyalty that I ordered online for the first time instead of going into a store to try on. I'm so sad. I don't know what's next for my feet.

A++ for comfort. Unfortunately, I have to give a D- for quality. The tread began to come apart at the bottom after several months of working at the hospital. The first few months were I spent most of the time sitting, I initially purchased after foot surgery. My usual size is 8.5, I had to order a 8.

I have high arches and my heels tend to slip side to side when I walk. This makes my hips, knees & back hurt. I have not been able to find a shoe that holds my heels in place. My podiatrist & chiropractor recommended Hoka, but I just couldn't justify spending so much on one pair of shoes!! I finally broke down and tried several different styles on in a shoe store. I found the Clifton 9 was awesome and held my foot perfectly snug without being too tight. So, I went online to the Hoka site and found them on sale and with a coupon and saved almost $80! Score!!! They are very comfortable after spending one day at Universal Studio Park & one day at Legoland with the grandkids. No foot pain, no back pain. I felt great!

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
Runs NarrowRuns Wide
Poor SupportGreat Support
Ordered the sand/blue colorway in 8.5 med; usually wear 8.0 or 8.5 in sneakers but these were slightly big feeling after trying in house that they may rub my ankle bone; this color not available in the 8.0 med. Like the style hopefully this color will return in my size which was also on sale. Love Zappos fair return policy.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks, Asics

The shoe fits well and is made well, however, I didn't realize quite how much cushioning was is the design. I feel like I'm walking on a big pillow. This may be perfect for some feet, but I prefer feeling a little more connected to the ground for my long walks. I will keep them, because I have already tried them out on my canyon trail. So they are not returnable.

I bought these shoes less than 1 month ago and pieces of the bottom are falling off. I'm devastated. I saved for these shoes for a long time and I cannot wear them.

I'm a nurse and I'm always on the hunt for really good supportive shoes, as I have flatter feet. I was unsure about them at first due to the price and having to buy them online without trying them on first. But wow am I glad I did. They fit so good! Definitely true to size. So cushion-y. Very supportive. My feet don't hurt after standing in the operating room anymore.
