Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

I like that this shoe feels like I am walking on air---after they are broken in

I have purchased 6 pair of the Clifton 9's in the last 2 years. I love them! I have only 1 pair that doesn't seem to be as comfortable as the other 5, not sure why but I still wear them occasionally. They seem to come up a little high on my ankle than the others. This last pair were perfect though!

I have worn the Hoka Clifton for several years and I always go back and buy a new pair each year. My disappoint with this year's model (the Clifton 9) is that Hoka made it a bit wider. This resulted in me not getting my normal good fit. I use it for walking, cycling, elliptical and weight training. It is the only athletic shoe I wear. Over all it is a great shoe, the 4 star rating is a result of the design change in widening the shoe.

Lightweight, nice cushion, and supportive!

I'm a pharmacy technician and stand on my feet all day. You can feel the comfort the moment you put the shoes on!

I have loved the Clifton style for years but unfortunately not this one. I have a bunion on my foot and have always had plenty of toe room along with width. This new Clifton 9 still has room on the sole of the shoe but the top is tight and rubs in all the wrong places. Had to send them back and will start looking for a different shoe.

I am very happy with my Clifton 9

I didn't pay this much money to open my container and find dog hair and crumbs/dirt all over my shoes. Disappointed in the quality of shoe I was given after waiting for a brand new pair.

These are my most comfortable pair of trainers; I'm on my second pair, the first lasted a year with daily workout use (I put 5-6 miles in them per session outdoors). I haven't tried any other Hoka models (the Clifton 9s were my first), so I cannot compare how they feel to other models.

Like some of the other reviews, I had purchased the Clifton 8 and loved them. I recommended them to friends for their comfort. Then when the Clifton 9 came out I tried- not the same at all. I will not buy again. Maybe if they have a 10 Theo will read Reva and fix.

I have had 2 pairs of the same pair in the past 6 months and the same thing is happening to my shoe again , the bottom of the shoe comes apart and i only walk in these shoes. There so comfortable but they just fall apart on the bottom. They tear apart at the bottom. I wish i knew why this was happening as this is now my second pair and it's still happening.

I use these shoes every single day. I run around with my 2 year old on ceramic tile floors. These shoes shaped to my foot for perfect pressure disbursement. I wish the tip of the tounge of the shoe was a bit thicker, right where I go to, and most people, to tie knot of my shoes laces. I wish there was more padding there. I wish there was a little more room for toe space in the normal size because the wide is too wide for me and the regular is a bit to small. I have flat feet and my back hurts, I'm always on my feet. These shoes have helped but they could also improve for a proper 5 stars.

I bought these for my wife's Birthday, yesterday, and she told me what to say so that's what I'm doing! She had them on all day Tuesday and she said they were okay, very comfortable. She wore them in the house and once out to the mailbox so it's a little early on the review. She said the color was perfect. I think she will continue liking them more and more as she wears them around everywhere. Time will tell.

It took me some time to finally decide to review 9. I really loved Clifton 8 and when I first tried 9 early this year, I wasn't sure since the feel is different than 8. I felt heavy when I ran in 9 but after about 50 miles in, I started feeling great when I ran in 9. I just started another pair yesterday and it didn't take any break in time, I felt great right away and ran 10k, no issues at all. I have a wider feet for my height and size, 5'3, size 7 is perfect, no need to go with wide. I do have to use wide for Arahi 7 since the 7 is narrow compare to 6. Just some additional information from my own experience. I just purchased another two pairs of Clifton 9.
