I love Hokas, and this is probably my fourth pair. However, the tread has begun coming off the bottom already. I don’t wear them every day or for long periods of time. I don’t go to work in them or take long walks in them. I just wear them for 20 to 30 minute workouts a few times a week. I’ve only had them a few months, and the peeling tread makes me feel like I’m going to trip. Bummer, because they are expensive shoes. Really hoping for at least a partial refund or a replacement pair, as they really do support well, and help my knees a lot. The photo shows a section completely missing on the right hand shoe, and where it is peeling on the left hand shoe. I miss you so much higher quality from Hoka!

I've been wearing Hoka Cliftons for over 10 years for walking and jogging. The size is always consistent and there's never a break-in period so never a break in my pace.

I wear a 10.5 regular shoe, and that's what I ordered after reading a HOKA blog post about when to order a wide shoe. I don't have wide feet, but these were way too narrow. I thought they may stretch out, since I don't have wide feet, that maybe they were supposed to feel that way at first. But nothing improved. I ended up going to a store to get fitted and purchased a Stinson 7 (regular) which fit wonderfully. Not narrow at all. The Cliftons will be returned.

I was so happy to get these shoes. All the reviews said they have a larger toe box. I found that the complete opposite. They hurt my feet wearing them for two hours in the house. I don’t feel like you should have to “break in” $150 pair of shoes. They should fit perfect when you try them on. Loved the shoes themselves. I will see if they have a wider size

I really like the Clifton shoe model. It has always fit really great and had the right amount of support fo the house. My only problem is as soon as I find a good fit the style changes. This shoe feels more narrow than the others. Not the whole shoe just in the toe area

I have several pairs of Clifton 8s and grew to like them. I now have 9's and regret keeping them and really don't like them. My 8s fit well and I had no foot pain. In the 9s, my ankles hurt and feel like they are collapsing in. Hoka messed with a good shoe, and now I have shoes that hurt. I'm hoping the 10s are better, but I'm not optimistic. I may have to go back to Brooks.

I’m a nurse and I really loved the comfort of these but after a month of wearing them the tread on the bottom started coming off. So they don’t last long

Yellow is my favorite color and this is as close to yellow as I could find. Some say this is green but I like them none the less. I would still buy another pair if I could find a totally true yellow shoe!

I've been dealing with plantar fasciatiis for almost a year and every other shoes I've worn has helped a little or made it worse even when I brought Dr.Scholls foot soles. When I finally decided to invest more in a decent pair of shoes, that's when everything changed for me for the better. Close to two months, along with PT , these shoes are truly a Godsend to me, and my feet. The pain I've been suffering with for so long has drastically reduced. I still have to take other measures in healing my PF but these shoes have been an incredible addition to my healing journey. I want to Thank the manager that recommended Hoka to me and thank you Hoka for existing

These are the first pair of HOKA I have purchased and will be the only brand going forward! I have already told my friends about them because we take a lot of walks together. I especially like the roominess in the toe area. No pinching.

these seem to fit, but based on my experience with another pair of Clifton 9s, I have decided to return these. I am afraid that these will rub wrong on the outside of my left foot, like the other pair

I've been curious about these shoes for a while, but none of the color-ways really worked for me. When I saw these, I decided to give them a try and they are great. They are very cushy and I feel stable when walking on them. I would definitely recommend.

These shoes are amazing, no break in period! I just went on a 4 mile run-walk and my feet feel great! I have a lot of problems with feet, knees, and hips and these are the best shoes that I have tried! If you are wondering if you should get them, you should! I am normally a 8.5 and that is what I got. I like room in the toe bed and these have it without going wide.
