Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

My foot needs more of an arch support although the cushion is great!

I was suffering for weeks with plantar fasciitis, and could barely walk at times. These shoes made it possible to get around without pain, and have allowed my healing to progress.

The show caused me so much pain in my foot and blistered the entire right side of my foot. Customer service was so deplorable and unhelpful. I am so disappointed and will never be buying another Hoka product again. You should be ashamed HOKA. You're company will likely fail with that kind of customer service and quality behind your products.

These shoes feel great for walking

I love my new HOKA shoes. I would buy more if they did not cost so much. This was a huge splurge for me .

I love my cliftons, I have been running in them for many years. This gray color is amazing (I'm not a fan of white soles). They are every bit as comfortable as every clifton generation before them.

Plantar fasciitis is much better!

I loved the feel of them when I put them on the first time. First pair of shoes that I didn't have to break in and are so comfy when walking.

Feels like I am walking on air

The rocker heal tilts my foot to the side and then my foot hurts, I've arranged an exchange for the Mach 6 which doesn't have the rocker heal. I should receive them in about 10 days. Looking forward to wearing them.

I have had 2 pairs of the Clifton 8's and loved them. The Clifton 9 is different. I definitely do not like how the back of the show comes up much farther on my ankle, and the cushioning is different. I am hoping that after they are broken in a little better that I will like them better

These shoes have changed my life. I used to get aches and pains in my heels after standing all day at work, after getting hokas I don't get the pain or a feeling of being uncomfortable in them!

I've been a huge HOKA advocate and fan for many years. I've purchased variations of Hoka Cliftons and Bondi's (but mostly Clifton), and began running about a year-and-a-half ago and felt like the Hoka Clifton's enabled me, who has never been a runner in my life, to run with no joint pain or foot pain. I attribute this to the heel-to-toe drop ratio, the cushioning of the shoe, and the rocker technology. Fast forward to this pair of Hoka Clifton 9's and I absolutely loved the color and thought "should be the same as all my other Hoka Cliftons" and fit the same, but no. The heel-to-toe drop ratio is different somehow, and I wore these in rotation with other Clifton 9's but soon found out that my achilles tendon does NOT like this pair of Hoka Clifton's. The only thing I can attribute this to is that the heel-to-toe drop feels different. I exchanged these and the new pair is arriving today, so I have high hopes that this was just a manufacturing defect in the ones I purchased, but I really hope that is the case, as I absolutely have loved Hoka and feel they are the best shoe out there. I gave these a 3-star rating due to the color and shoe style, and because I've had multiple Cliftons with no trouble, so I'm really hoping that this was just a manufacturing defect in this pair. I hope Hoka does some testing of the current manufacturing to ensure their standards are still being met.

Perfect shoe for everything. My feet are all over town, country, and the world. These Clifton 9 from HOKA go with me everywhere!

These Clifton 9's felt slightly shorter than the Cliftons that I purchased over a year ago. I measured the soles of the old and new ones, and these new Cliftons are a bit shorter, so I had to order up 1/2 size.

Since rotating between Hoka, Brooks, & ON for years I have settled with Hoka's permanently. I have bones missing in my feet & have broken both ankles, so these are the only type shoes I can wear. With prescription orthos I must wear them in any shoe. However, at 75 I still want some style! These are the most comfortable shoes I own. Finally they have provided a true navy to wear with jeans! My surgical nurse next door has said they are the nurses favorite. Wish you provided narrows.
