I like my black Clifton 9 for running on dry days. Very cool shoes with supportive cushion. Great for running, not for hiking in general or walking in the rain though. They are very slippery on wet sidewalks, rocks, and wood. They get wet very easily too. Wore them to work once or twice. They can be a little squeaky on our floor. Size is perfect, however, they felt pretty tight/narrow on my feet. Wearing the shoes a couple times softened them up a lot.

I walk all day on cement at my job. Before I got these, my feet would hurt so bad at the end of the day. My feet are happy feet now. Lol. They don't hurt anymore when I get off of work. I love my shoes.

Before I bought my Hoka Clifton 9s I was no longer walking because of lower back pain. First time out wearing my Hokas, I was able to walk with no back pain!

I would love to give full stars, but on my very first order, which were too large, I returned and scanned everything within a day on September. 27th and never heard back from Hoka about the replacement shoes. Not even a refund. NOT what I expected from such a well known brand. Horrible practice.

These fit me just right. Everyone's feet are different and what fits me may not work for you. These are comfortable and give me support with great cushioning.

Had heard great reviews about this shoe brand and had to try a pair out for myself, as I often have back pain after walking all day if I am out and about or at the mall with my teenage daughter. I am not as young (almost 56) as I used to be and cannot shop the day and night away like I once could. Spent a lovely day out with my mother, running multiple errands and had little back pain at the end of the day. My Hoka's helped improve my endurance, as well as lessened my back pain.

This is my third pair of Clifton's. This pair does not feel as good on my feet as the first 2 pair. Has anything changed about the design?

I have worn Clifton's for many years in a wide size to get extra room in the toe box. They always fit great. With the Clifton 9 the same size is now way too wide. Unfortunately I threw away the box before trying them.

Clifton 9 size 9 I jog on the treadmill mainly with them. The right shoe just feels like the toe box is turned in? i dont know how to describe it. my toes feel jammed up on the right side of the shoe. like the shoe is not straight. Is it made wrong or ?? my many other hokas havent fit this way. My left shoe is fine. I use custom insoles just like in all my other hokas. I keep trying to kick my heel to see if it pulls my toes out of the edge. But you know when you are running they tend to go forward. just not sure why its not the same on both feet. I always recommend Hokas but not sure about this situation.

Was referred to Hokas by my Podiatrist and have become obsessed. I have mid-foot arthritis and a retained screw in my left foot so I needed more stability than I was getting in my previous high end shoes. I cannot believe the difference in the relief I have felt since purchasing Hokas. I just now bought my 5th pair since my first earlier this year and am so pleased with not only the pain I no longer experience but also in the appearance of the shoe.

I bought these sneakers because my nephew said they were popular amongst his track team. I bought him a pair and I bought myself a pair. I'm glad I listened to him. Best decision I made. I now go running and I feel like I'm running in air. My back no longer hurts while I am running. And my feel or shins do not hurt anymore. The sneakers have really made a difference in my running as well. I now feel I push myself alot more.

These arrived the night before leaving for Disney. I was worried I'd get blisters the first time wearing them but I didn't! My feet didn't hurt at all after a week walking around the parks, I'm a hoka lifer! I went with a 10.5 instead of my normal 10

I have a pair of clifton 8s and they are more flexible and comfortable than the clifton 9s. These shoes are a bit stiff, I haven't run in them yet but walking in them takes some getting used to. Still not uncomfortable by any means, but not as soft as the previous version! I do love the range of colors and the added height. If you like a more structured shoe, these are definitely for you!

I was really excited for these shoes, I have wanted running motivation and this was just what I needed. I put them on, perfect fit for my usual size, and I felt like I could jump so high. I was sprinting through the hallways of my suburban house at 100mph. However, when I took to the streets for a slow-paced run in my moderately out-of-shape fitness status, I got 2 miles in and my toe began to rub and feel sore inside the shoe. I was very sad about this. I think they will feel better with time and I am willing to give them a try, but I really did expect a heavenly pair right away with these ones. They are supe cute though.

My husband and I buy this shoe frequently. I started buying these shoes first and raved about them so much that my husband started buying them. Now he won't buy anything but these. This purchase was for my mother. She has problems with her arch and can only wear certain shoes. She decided to give these a try. When she slipped them on, she absolutely LOVED them. She will be buying them from now on.
