I loved how light and supportive/springy the shoes felt. I just need more arch support as this felt like it had a neutral midfoot and is more narrow.

The CLIFTON 9 has no resemblance to the wonderful 7 and 8! So disappointed in a shoe that doesn't fit anything like its predecessor! Tight to box, exacerbated duck bill on the back that hazardously catches on stairs and too much sole spreading out the sides. Sooo disappointing.!

I purchased the shoe on April 16th, 2024. I wear the shoes as a teacher. I don't go on running or do any hiking. I just wear them at school, and mostly indoors. However, the bottom outsole is already peeled off, and I had to super glue them to prevent them from further peeling off. My friend recommended this brand because it supposed to last long, but I am very disappointed with the brand, and I probably won't pay for this much money to have shoes that can only last 5 month.

I have owned 4 pairs of the Clifton 8. I walk probably 6-8 miles per day. Wore the M width and liked the wider toe box. Surprised when they were updated to the Clifton 9. Tried a pair of Clifton 9 and returned them due to the more narrow fit in the toe box area.

to say I'm addicted to HOKA is an understatement. i've spent a decade looking for shoes that make my feet happy. folks don't understand when your in pain how much that can affect your attitude. these shoes have done as much for my mental health as they have for my physical health. love my HOKAS

I love these shoes! I have pretty bad feet and thought I was going to have to stop walking everyday, until I tried this pair of Hoka's. If you're not sure and on the fence try them they are amazing.

I was desperate for these to work for me. The last pair of walking shoes gave me plantar fasciitis and I've been struggling with it all summer. While these are a bit loose in the heel, I've decided to keep them because my feet feel better after taking my morning walk for only three days.

I'm not usually one to write reviews, but I've been so pleased with the Clifton 9s that I felt I needed to express it. I am working to become more active and my old shoes had no support. When I'd go on longer walks, I'd find my back and legs aching and I knew there needed to be a better solution. I decided to search Reddit to get some ideas of good shoe brands and so many people recommended Hoka. I decided to take a chance and I'm so happy with how it turned out. Now, the shoe comes tight since it's new and very padded it did take me a second to break it in. I found stretching the shoe when I wasn't wearing it helped a lot. I often compare how I walk in this shoe to bouncing on a trampoline. It is so supportive and I'm able to do the activities I love without joint pain.

Buyer Beware:do not buy Clifton 9 in white, they got dirty with minimal wear, barely worn (mostly inside for work), and I could not get them clean with Hoka instructions. I should have sealed with a waterproof shoe spray. I love Hoka sneakers but gave this model a rating of 2 because of fabric. Hoka should sell with instructions to waterproof before use.

I thought they were overpriced and overrated but my boss swears by them and after trying them at work where I'm on my feet all day I am pleasantly surprised. They are so comfortable. And since I've been wearing them (about 2 weeks now) right away my lower back pain has stopped! That in itself makes them worth it. I will be ordering another pair for walking. I even offered to buy a pair for my daughter and son in law because they are on their feet all day and are always complaining about their feet hurting. I am a believer

I love this shoe. It is extremely light and very comfortable to wear. I had plantar facilitis which is why i purchased the shoe. My foot felt great in them and I could walk or stand for long periods without pain. I have worn sketchers for many years but now Hoka is my Go To shoe. I have bought another pair.

Bought these to help me navigate daily walks to work in urbanish area. Lots of various forms of aging sidewalks, pavements, and also gravel. Uphills and downhills both ways. Has helped my stability on those terrains, and the cushioning is very welcome. Mistakenly threw on a different pair of sneakers today to run an errand and regretted not wearing these!

I have had 4 knee surgeries and finding a pair of shoes that keeps my knee pain tolerable is hard. These shoes do the trick. They are very comfortable and provide great support.

I would love to leave a wonderful review of these shoes BUT sadly the soles tore off within the first month of purchase. I am an ER nurse so I am on my feet for long hours. I have always purchased Hokas and never had a problem before this. I would love to insert a picture of the sole of my shoe. I have tried to super glue them and it has not worked. I would love my money back for these shoes.
