I am a Clifton tried and true! I have regular foot pain but my Hokas allow me to keep up with race training. This is my first time trying the Clifton 9 though and they were huge. I always size down a half size, but I needed a full size. The toe area was roomier than the 8, too, and I felt like I was wearing clown shoes. The design and colors were great, but I returned the 9 and bought two more pairs of Clifton 8s while they’re on sale!

I have always worn a size 7 in Hokas. These 7's are a little too long.

The shoes look great, color and design...but to my surprise, I did not find them to be comfortable. The heel felt lower than my midfoot, which I did not like. Also the sides of the soles felt lumpy and dug into my feet. I returned them. Hokas are not necessarily the most comfortable shoe for everyone.

The first day I wore these I loved them I thought they were so comfortable. Then I wore them yesterday (all day) at work on my feet :-( they irritated my morton's neuroma terribly.

I wanted to love these. However, they are big and clunky and look like they are for a 95 year old. They run large and will make your feet look huge. I had to return them.

All I have heard is how wonderful these shoes are to wear for long periods of time. I have small feet (6.5 woman) with high arches. I was hoping for more arch support. I have only worn them a few times but so far my feet burn and ache when I have worn them. I'm hoping that will change because I bought these because of how highly they were recommended by everyone I talked to that wears them.

The shoe hit too high in my ankles. I also felt very clumsy while walking. Believe the arch was too high for me. Hoka is a great shoe, just was not right for me. I have several friends who wear Hoka, and that is why I tried them. Return policy was so easy. Any contact over the phone was very helpful

Not NEARLY as comfortable as the Clifton 8. The size and width are fine, but the material is definitely different and is scratchy and uncomfortable. Maybe with the popularity of Hoka these days they have cheapened the cost to produce by using inferior materials? All I know is, I have 4 pairs of the Clifton 8's that I absolutely L-O-V-E have worn to pieces and will buy a couple more while they're still available and hope they last me until a better version comes out!

I don't walk through mud puddles in my shoes. It is only day-to-day grime so a simple, gentle wash should have done it. It didn't. My shoes still look grimy. I wouldn't buy them again.

Fit well in the front. There was room for orthotics. The heel was wide and loose.

I looked forward to these shoes. The variety of olors in my size was far more variety than I get with other shoe companies. However, they don't provide the stability and support I need for my plantar facetious. Good shoes unless you need support.

I & few of my friends are suffering from severe plantar fasciitis. Please, consider making sneakers with more cushions

They are light weight but not enough support. The sole seems to high. I like the Clifton 8's. They have a lower sole and seem better for walking.

My foot is killing me. It's not the shoes fault. I had surgery and my foot is still swollen. I don't think I got the right width? Can I return these for a wider pair? And how far do your widest shoes go?

Even though I ordered wide, the toe was narrow and rubbed. The rest of the shoe felt a little loose. The cushioning was inferior to the Bondi. They are going back.

Fit was fine. But, after wearing the Arahi's and Bondi's, these felt SO hard! Not plush at all. So, back they go. Thanks, Zappo's, for excellent customer service!

I have worn the Hoka Clifton for a few years, and decided to try the Arahi 6 because I liked the color. When I tried it on, it was much narrower through the toe box than my old Clifton. So I returned it and ordered a Clifton 9 in a similar color. When it arrived, I tried it on and it also was narrower than my old Clifton. What has happened to the sizing? I am so disappointed that I had to return both shoes. I'm going back to my Brooks Adrenaline.

The fit was right at first, but after running for 1/2 hour, my toes started to go numb, although these were wide width. Also, the cushioning felt bouncy and nice at first, but after some time running it just felt hard and heavy. In addition, the style is so unappealing. It was returned.

the shoe felt just right, however, the toe box was tight for me. I could tell that after running for 1/2 or so that tightness would turn into numbness of my toes and pain. Sadly, I had to return it. I really didn't care for the design either, too chunky, just not nice, but I would've still kept it the fit was right
