Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

I like the shoes, but I would have purchased Rincon 3 again if my size had been available. These feel heavier and bulkier, but they are obviously well-made.

So excited to try these on. I am a tried and true Clifton 8 wearer for walking, exercise, etc! The Clifton 9 however I found to be longer with my true to size 9.5. Bigger toe box. And the heal cup was too deep for my liking. I was very disappointed. Definitely not a close runner to the Clifton 8s. Too many differences

Honestly- i've heard so much hype I figured i'd try them out though I typically go for Brooks. Not super satisfied.

I've worn these shoes for four months now and I love how my feet don't hurt after hours at work. The bottom soul of my left shoe is starting to lift though and the traction is most likely going to fall off in the next week or so. I was really looking forward to having these last for a lot longer then maybe five month. Another side note is they aren't very breathable but that wouldn't have bothered me if they didn't deteriorate at such a fast pace.

I was disappointed that I did not receive the shoes I ordered. I am leaving town for a while and needed them for my trip. I ordered Clifton 9 in a blue, size 8 and received bright pink in size 9.5.

First, I LOVE the California colors, shape and everything visual. They feel OK. Not bad, but lack the support of the best New Balance or Saucony (before they both cheaped down). I could not imagine jogging in these Hokas. So even though they're gorgeous, their use is limited, and the structure doesn't warrant the fancy price.

Sure it fits and feels good. It is hoka after all. But the color is just way off. It should be vanilla and astral. Expected it to be beige-ish white or something along the line of "vanilla". But this looks more like pink to me. As if it was washed with pinkish shirt and dye was transferred..it was not the color I expected

I ordered one pair, returned it for these and still no success.. I ordered these specifically because my feet are overpronounced. These have an insole that rubbed against the inside of my foot, making it uncomfortable to walk. So I returned this pair as well. I will say they make their return process very easy and accommodating.

Best shoes. Very comfy. I hate that they changed the color on the black and bronze ones. Only reason I marked it down 2 stars is because my original pair had black under rubber and the small "bronze" details on the front sides of the shoe are more silver now yet the logo on the back side and tongue are still bronze. At least match them. I don't like the look and don't understand why the company feels the need to not keep them the same as they were but I've already worn them and like I said Clifton's are the best. I recently purchased another 8.5 and they sent me wide. I had worn them a few days before realizing that they were giving me blisters. I didn't contact the company to return since I wore them but the color issue was the same on there too. I'm guessing they just ran out of the color or felt the need to change. Anyways, that is all.

Can feel the sole lining around the arch and heel areas. Seems just a tad narrow in the mentioned areas. I don't think you should feel the edges of the shoe lining. This style also makes you lean back on the heel and after 15 minutes of walking, your heel is sore. Too late to return.

Pretty comfy. I ordered a half size bigger per the sizing recommendation. Fit was good not too big. However, the outside of the shoe is already pealing. So not sure how long they will last. But they made my feet stop hurting so that is what will make me buy them again because of the comfort.

I love these shoes. I have terrible feet, but I've had these shoes less than 9 months and the tread is coming off both shoes. I wish they were more durable. I will repurchase because the support is wonderful but the tread is making me trip. :(

I bought these at the recommendation of my podiatrist. I buy I wiser shoe for the toe room and comfort. These are extremely too wide and the the regular fit are too small. I wore them to the gym and my foot seems to slide around in them when moving. The extremely hard insole and arch support cause a lot of fatigue and strain in my feet. They've also caused a lot of knee pain from not having much cushion during impact work outs

I'm between 10.5-11, so I went with 11 as usual. Length was fine, but width was too tight. So I exchanged it for a 11W, and it was too roomy overall. The sole was really comfy, just too in general. The color in the picture and virtual try on showed the color to be a sort of darker blue, but in person it's a bright violet blue. Too bright for me also. Tried to exchange it for another style shoe, and I only had the option to return it. Since I'm new to this brand, I don't know if this is all the shoes, or just my awkward foot. I think if this fit, color was more accurate, and was aware that you couldn't exchange it again, this would easily be 5 stars.
