Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

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.

I will wear these constantly in the spring and summer.

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 expected clouds. For the price, not any more comfortable than OnCloud.

Running 5k. Not much spring moving you forward. It's an ok shoe. For the price, not what I expected.

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 was disappointed I had to return but they were too big. Same size as older pair but didn't work

Not as comfortable as previous Clifton 9, unfortunately I will be returning them, toe box is narrow and the back of the shoe feels too low on the heel

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.

I've heard a lot of good things about the tennis shoes but after wearing them for 3 weeks I'm not that impressed with them. Could have spent a little less angst the same quality of shoe.

They are not as comfortable as I was expecting. This is my second pair of HOKA's the first pair was comfortable and didn't have any pressure points these have pressure points and hurt my feet after a couple hours on my feet. Do not appear to have enough cushion in the heels and hurts my arch. After a while even hurt the top of my feet.

Hello, I purchased my new Hokas in September of this year and I just noticed bottom of my shoe is falling off! :( I really am not too happy since these are my favorite shoes. I have heard many people can wear these for years and not have any problems. I am upset and I have photos to show proof too.

I am giving this tennis shoe a three star only because the choices are very limited in a wide for female. If there is a wide available it is only in black or pastel's. My orthotics fit in nicely and the shoe gives me the support I need.

Unlike my three previous pairs of Hola, which I love, these were not comfortable and felt heavy.

These are not as comfortable as I thought they would be. This is my 4 th pair. I expected more arch support and cushion. They also pull my socks down and I have to stop to pull socks up. I walked miles in them over the holiday. I'll go back to my Biondi.
