Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

These shoes are more comfortable than anything I have ever tried before. I will definitely be buying another pair so I can have a pair for work and a pair for fun! Could not recommend enough!

I am 70 years old and walk 5+ miles a day. The Clifton 9 has been a real game changer for my walking

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. They help relieve back pain and neuropathy. I have two pairs and they are absolutely wonderful!!

My daughter loves these sneakers, she is very happy with them

I really like the cushion and support in this shoe for my workouts in the walking pad as well as outdoor walking.

I bought this shoe because I had heard such great things about the Hoka brand. I figured it was worth the price. However, two weeks into wearing them, the rubber traction on the bottom peeled off. Not sure what to do. They were great as far as comfort goes, but I expected them to last longer than a week plus without starting to fall apart.

Not a proper walking shoe for all day use, my feet hurt. Didn't get the comfort, just did not meet my expectations

I bought these leading up to a trip to Japan needing some really solid walking shoes and these did not disappoint. I had almost 0 break in issues and they held up for 2 weeks of 30k steps daily wonderfully. There was a period about half way where the cushion did get compressed but once home and not walking AS much it popped right back and was like new.

I love that these come in wide, so comfy for my bunion. Great cushioning as well. I usually take a size 9.5 in reg, size 9 in wide. Ordered 9 wide and they fit like a size 10, at least an inch too long. Also the shape of shoe is huge. I look like I have monster clown dad feet. Will wear these in private but love the comfort

I'm not a runner, but I work retail and I get a LOT of steps in every day. These shoes are extremely comfortable and make a big difference for me after my long shifts walking on concrete floors. I just wish they had a better color selection, maybe some forest greens or a burgundy color

This is my fourth pair of hoka shoes, and continues to be a good choice for my feet. I wear them mostly for running, and some walking. The previous three were Clifton 8's -- I don't feel a major difference with the 9's. Maybe took a little more time to break in, but otherwise felt very similar. For comparison I tried the Arahi and Kawana but the Clifton had the right combination of not too cushiony while still supportive.

Love to run in these! Thank you HOKA!

So disappointed that I have to return these. I have lots of foot pain with new shoes and need very cushy shoes for the 10k plus steps I take daily, and these are soo comfortable on my feet! Sadly, after about half an hour into my walks I get lower back pain. I've not experienced this (switched from NB to these) with my old shoes or any other honestly. I don't know why or how to fix it but the shoes were so great I'm really sad to have to return them. The fit was great, the cushion great, the shoes are wide in the toe box which was a pleasant change. I tried them on the treadmill and outdoors on pavement. They are fine for around half an hour to 40 minutes but after that I get the lower back pain no matter where I walk. I wish there was a fix for this and I'm afraid to try to wait it out as if it's a break them in issue. I can't take chances with my back. So back to the drawing board I go. I'm going to try to stick with Hoka but maybe a different type will be better. To be fair they are billed as runners and I'm using them to walk, but I ordered based on suggestions and reviews and lots of research. Nice shoe otherwise, just didn't work out for me.

I have a bad back 2 surgeries and arthritis in back and the tops of my feet. I had 2 foot surgeon's in 2 different cities tell me I should wear this brand of tennis shoes. They are a bit pricey but they help my back and feet and that is priceless. One of the surgeons and his assistant were both wearing them on the job.

I've had 2 back surgeries and I have arthritis in my back and the tops of my feet and I had 2 different foot surgeons tell me to wear Hoka and I wear Clifton 9. If I need to stand for a bit or go to the store I always wear my Hokas. One of the surgeons and his assistant both were wearing on the job.

Had a pair of Clifton 9 for almost 2 years. Loved them. Ordered a new pair last week. They arrived and although they felt a little snug I thought they just needed to be broken in. Not the case. This is a completely different shoe. The outside soles are much more firm than my previous pair so not soft enough for my problem feet. Not as much toe box room as my last pair. Unfortunately I am returning them.

Walking my dog everyday!!

Love the color but didn't fit well was a bit tight on my guy and I went up by a size

This is the 2nd time I've worn Hoka's. Several reasons why, I feel like I'm walking on clouds, they provided a lot of support. I did feel like the 1st pair I received was a little too small. I went up 1/2 side larger on the 2 and pair and it was perfect.

I had high hopes for these shoes. They are very comfortable and supportive. Unfortunately did not hold up past 8 months of daily walking. I typically walk my dog 1-2 miles per day on the sidewalk and have never had a sole of the shoe basically disintegrate, like my Hoka Cliftons have. For the price tag; I would have expected them to last much longer. I have worn Brooks for the past 15 years, and my friends kept raving about the Hoka's so decided I would finally try them. Very disappointed and would not recommend if you need a shoe to last more then a few months. I will be going back to Brooks.

Very comfortable. Very easy ordering process. Excellent choice.

I forgot to order a wide size so the ones I have will go to my daughter. And I will get a wide size next time.

I bought her one pair and she loves them. I bought her a second pair for Christmas.

First time trying them. Hoping they would be better for being on my feet 12+ hours in LTC but less then three months the bottoms were pealing off and didn't give my feet much relief. They would I guess be ok for general wear but didn't last long as a work shoe for the price paid

My every day walking shoe,and my feet loves them they are so comfortable,less pain on my feet,I would recommend these to you for comfortable and style.
