I have only worn these shoes once to go walk on a trial with steep elevation. Not true hiking trails, but with good elevation. They are comfortable and I felt like I could walk pretty fast with these shoes on. I felt good support to my feet and they helped me to walk a bit faster. Overall well-cushioned and comfortable. Only one thing I don't like, is that the sleeve on my left shoe kept rubbing against the top of my left foot, which caused some discomfort.

I love this shoe for running! I have a wide foot and it’s the only running shoe that I’ve had that needs no break in period whatsoever. I am writing this review after putting about 400 miles on my Clifton’s. I can’t run another mile in them but will keep them for light walking around. I wore them out and just ordered my new pair because I run 4-5 times a week and they are worth the money.

Purchased the Clifton, walked 20 minutes & the tongue rubbed on top of my foot. The shoe fit ok other than that. I did a previous review & when I submitted it after 15 mins of my time, the website had an error... so suspicious as to if HOKA doesn't print anything less than 5 star reviews. I gave it a 4 star the 1st time....not this time. Hate it when companies don't allow less than perfect reviews!

Comfortable when walking not so much with static standing like during work which is what I'm endlessly looking for

This was my first pair of Hoka, and they are by far the most comfortable running shoe I've had. I only gave 4 stars because I got a blister running my long run today, which has never happened to me before. Not sure if the shoe isn't right for me, I need a different sock, or need a bigger size? Haven't had any issues wearing them for shorter runs. I'm going to try some things because I really want these to work!

I was on the hunt for the quintessential walking shoe. After reading testimonials online & articles about great walking shoes for aging feet, I finally decided on Hoka- Clifton 9! The dream shoe for my daily early morning walks. Lightweight, supportive & sassy colors! Love them!

I already knew that Hoka brand sneakers fit me well. I have a pair which I use so often you almost can't tell what the original color was! I wanted a new pair in a different color. These are perfect, and arrived more quickly than I anticipated.

So comfortable for my arthritis. My running friends swear by them, and now me too. So much more fun than old-lady orthopedic shoes!

I will start by simply saying that I absolutely LOVE the Clifton 9! This was my second purchase of this style but my other pair is the black on black. I work on my feet all day at an elementary school and i have a bad back and since purchasing my first pair, work has been SO much more enjoyable! I havent had any flareup pain since I've been wearing HOKA's which is MAJOR for me! OK, so this pair appears to look grey on the site, which is exactly what I was looking for, however when they arrived they are actually a pale baby blue. Just a heads up! I really wish that they would offer the mens colors in smaller sizes because most of the mens colors are something more or less what I actually prefer for my style...

Wow, these are truly the most comfortable things I've ever put on my feet! The plain white looks so sleek and wil match with everything. I'm glad they will work with regular street clothes without looking too athletic with bright colours. Will be taking these with me to Tokyo next month, I can tell my feet will thank me!

Love these shoes. Comfortable from the moment you step in to them. And then the entire time you are wearing them. My favorite shoes. This is my second pair.

It's my first Hoka and was very excited to try Clifton 9, however, the thick shoe tongue really digs on my skin while walking. I reached out to costumer service to discuss for replacement coz I probably just got a defective one. Well, I was told I had to pay for the shipping and they still need to assess if they are going to replace with the same product. No guarantees there! Boo! I love how my toe fits and would like the same style. I placed a binder clip to flatten the area. Let's see if that will work.

Very narrow compared to last pair of hokas of the same size. But last pair also stretched out a tad too wide after much use.

it is very hard to find a good fit for feet that have had surgeries and are still painful, but these Hoka's were recommended to me by a friend, and I am very, very haopy with with the fit, a very comfortable shoe, great arch support, I highly recommend this brand of shoe to anyone who has foot problems.

Sketchers are ok, Vionic are ok sometimes, not often tho...

Love my Hokas! My last pair were beat to death walking 2 miles a day for 4 years. These new ones are just as comfy and supportive! They are wide enough, but not too wide.

Since I had the Clifton 8, I wanted to try the new and improved Clifton 9. They were true to form for Hoka; I loved the support they provide while working out.

Best sneaker for being on my feet all day! I originally got these for the support while dealing with tendonitis, but have since continued to wear them for comfort.

This is my first pair of Hoka - Clifton 9 wide. They feel so lightweight and comfortable. The back leans away from my ankle (rear) which is good because alot of shoes run that area raw. I can't wait to go for my walks in them. I gave 4 stars because I have walked in them yet I may have to exchange however as the colour is much lighter than I thought. It is more of a light lilac than the grey. I walk on a gravel track and don't want the shoes to look so dirty all of the time.

Fit well in my normal sneaker size. I like the heel part where I can slip in hands free without collapsing it although it looks a little funky sticking out so far. Not a major issue.
