I really wanted this shoe. I love rainbows, but it was too narrow. There really should be a wide option for all your shoes.

I have been wearing Clifton's for years but they have changed the design of the tongue it's thicker and much longer, and incredibly uncomfortable. I didn't see any reason for the change as I've never had an issue.. The area now puts pressure on the top of my ankles as it rubs on the bony areas.. hopefully they wear in but unlikely pretty disappointing. The cushion and support remains great.

Not happy with the new Clifton 9´s. I have been wearing my Clifton 8´s for about a year and decided to get a new color. I noticed right away the materials were different. For example the interior parts like the tongue of the show were soft-almost like a spandex material, but on the 9´s, it is not smooth at all. There is also less cushioning in the heel. I wish I would have bough the Clifton 8´s again. For the price they charge, I expect a high quality shoe, but I feel like they are cutting corners with this new version.

Wanted to love it due to the aesthetic (black with rose gold accents- who can beat that? But after using the Bondi 8 the cushioning is not enough for me. Returned

I have run in Clifton 8 shoes for two years now and they discontinued. The 9's toe box is completely different.

I purchased this for an elderly aunt. It was too large and cumbersome.
Even though it was a womans it looked like men's footwear.

Took unworn pair of Hoka to my podiatrist's office for follow up visit/exam. The doctor thinks I need a size larger than I purchased. How do I exchange them for the next size up? She felt I needed more room for socks. I am not an athlete and probably would not wear a think sock. What do you think. I have a 9.5 pair.

I have a high arch and these mess with the circulation in my left foot after a few hours; not good for lots of walking.

I didn't like the way the Clifton 9 has evolved. I have 2 pairs of Clifton.. believe 6&7. The 9 has a protrusion on back of ankle that was annoying to me. I would recommend ALL Hoka shoes, but one has to know their choice is right for them!

I didn't care for the "hook" on back of clifton9, so I exchanged the shoes for Gaviota. I like the style better. I have 2 other Clifton shoes a 6 and 7, which are my favorite styles. No hook on the ankle!

I chose this brand because the orthopedist recommended them. I thought they were overpriced but figured it could not hurt to try. They are very light. Compared to my Reebok's they weigh nothing. But every time I take them off I have shooting pains in my foot.

I have a wide foot and ordered a wide. The back of the shoe is way too wide and slips up and down. Also after wearing all day the side of my feet hurt. So these aren't for me.

I purchased at the Nov. 2023 & received after Thanksgivings. The shoe is light weight. The rebound for my toes is great. The Clifton 9 blk/blk 7.5 wide is true to size. However, the heel area is not as comfortable as I needed balance shoe from heel to toe. I walk on concrete for 8-10 hours per day. This was one of the HOKA shoe finder suggested shoes for walking on concrete. I am looking for a shoe that is comfortable, take a pounding on concrete and rebounds from heel to toe with the insole surrounded by plush.

After all the great reviews I had high hopes but the shoe did not have the cushioning or the fit I need. My previous Hokas had a wide toe bed & these did not have the same. The roominess just wasn't there. Unfortunately I had to return them, but the customer service was awesome.

I have worn the Clifton's for five years and loved them! The Clifton 9 rubs in the heel, perhaps because the tab at the back is much thicker and stiff. They are just not the same fit at all. I returned them. Really sad as these helped my foot issues, and I lived in them. Walked all over Europe in my previous Clifton's, but the 9, no way.
