These are my second pair of Hokas. They're great for running and offer optimal support. My last pair lasted me almost two years and through two half marathons. My one criticism is that I ordered the yellow color thinking they'd be a pale yellow, but they're actually very bright neon. But this is good for night viability.

The shoes were comfortable but they did rip from the sole not even 3 months into me having them, I use them for work (I'm a CNA) and I wanted to get something comfortable and I heard good reviews about these shoes but honestly for the price I wish that they would've lasted me longer

I really hate these shoes. (The Clifton 8 were my stand by shoes as well as the 7swore them all the time. These are stiff, heavy and literally hurt my feet as soon as I slide them in. I'll be shopping from local stores from now on, and I won't be buying Hokas. Very disappointed: why change/ get rid of a wonderful shoe! Extremely disappointed: why replace a wonderful shoe with a horrible onenot mediocre, but absolutely horrible.

I walk 6 days a week, 1 1/2 hours each day, on the sand and on the sidewalk my hoka's help me walk smiling, because my feet are comfortable and that makes all of me very happy!

I have been purchasing Bondi's for several years. I needed a totally black show and I found that the Clifton came in that color so I took a chance. I might get a few others. Love the Bondi but these shoes are exceptional.

Great shoe for walking. These shoes along with some plantar fasciitis specific insoles have been a game changer for me.

This seems like a great shoe, but normal colors for everyday wear would make them practical.

Had these only a month and a few weeks and noticed a dragging feeling under my foot. Looked and part of the sole was coming off and the plastic was peeling away. Disappointing, as these were my first pair of Hokas and they have such a good reputation. They are very comfortable, but poor manufacturing. I contacted customer support and they said I would need to send the shoes away to get them replaced and it could take nearly a month. These are my only every day pair of shoes and exercise shoes so I am unable to do so

I ordered.2.different types of shoe the Clinton's were spongy in heel whi h was great but they did not fit like a wide. The second pair the Bondi Sr was.true to size and width. There is a small issue but trying to work thru it like in arch area it's like it rubs or not sure what's going on with that may try some arch supports like the letter or seam is rubbing it beside my arch just on inside of foot every where else is great. THESE R NOT JUST FOR SR'S THEY R GREAT FO ANYONE WITH BALANCE ISSUES. I NEED TO RETURN THE CLIFTON

I bought this shoe for my 93 year old mother-in-law -she admired my Ironman Mach 10's, and wanted a "pretty" shoe like mine. I picked these out and she is delighted with them. They encourage her to pick her feet up when she's walking, rather than shuffle, and they're so comfortable that she wears them from the time she gets up until she goes to bed.

Ran in these once and they caused me to have major ankle pain. They're fine for walking around but they cause major pain when I run for some reason. Only did 3 miles.

Very nice shoes. Only disappointed in the first pair after 8 months the rubber sole (just the black tread) stated coming off at the toe and made for a trip hazard. So we had to cut some of the rubber off. Now 8 months is pretty good for shoes warn daily. But for the cost I would hope they would last a year. We did buy another pair because we liked them so much.

These shoes are very comfortable but for some reason they make my feet smell bad. I have lots of hoka's and these are the only pair that do that.

I love the support and comfort of this HOKA model. I walk 3-4 miles, 4 times a week and the Clifton 9 is the perfect shoe to give me the support and comfort I want to keep my feet, knees, and hips happy. I love them!

Just ordered my second pair of this shoe, the first one lasted a year (bought July 1 2023) or approximately 2000 miles. My speedgoats lasted I recon 5 times that. I might look for speedgoats and run in them on road instead. Other than that it would have been a 5 star item.

I have spent so much money on shoes from Nike, new balance, adidas, etc. these shoes are 100% the best pair I've ever owned. I LIVE in these shoes. There extremely comfortable and perfect for walking, running, pickleball, etc. I have worn these shoes everyday for the past 4 months and they are barely worn out! If I had money I would buy another pair!!!! Please buy

I ordered these after hearing all the rave reviews about the comfort. I needed a new pair of shoes for walking and training and these were NOT it. The shoes are not necessarily comfortable, but they do offer great support. I was excited to put them to use. Wearing them around the house to "break them in", I nearly fell on 3 different occasions. They lack any kind of grip on the bottom, and for me, I need that! Im too old to be falling. In addition, the shoe strings are entirely too long. Just not my cup of tea.
