Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 9

The shoes were comfortable however they did not fit right for my foot. The arch was not in the right place.

I love this sneaker. It's so comfortable, which is what I need. I would differently buy more from Hoka.

I will only buy Hokas to run in. They so comfortable. The white ones are cute enough to wear with every-day (non athletic) outfits as well!

I wore these shoes for two workouts and noticed at the start of my 3rd wear that part of the outsole was pealing off, causing me to trip easily. This was my first Hoka purchase and I'm so disappointed. Would not recommend.

Unfortunately, the left sole is noticeably higher than the right, causing significant discomfort and blistering. This is not the first time I have experienced this issue with your products; I had a similar problem with a pair of Speedgoat 5 shoes in August 2023. As a loyal customer who appreciates the quality and comfort Hoka typically provides, I am quite disappointed with these defects. The inconsistency in the sole height has not only affected my running experience but also caused physical pain. I have always trusted Hoka for my athletic needs, and it is disheartening to face such recurring issues.

I really like the firmer sole.

I love the Hoka Clifton 9, it's so comfy, it feels like u are walking on sponge. I am a hairstylist so this sneaker is perfect for me.

Possibly could have used a wide shoe. I stand 7 to 8 hours a day at work.

Purchased a womens 9, my normal shoe size. The fit is perfect! The toe box is nice and wide. The interior cushion is plush, the tread is bouncy. Great shoes, will definitely purchase Hokas again.

Have been wearing Cliftons for quite a few years, several pairs a year. HATE the new ones I just got. The tongue is so high up on my instep it pushes into my ankle. And the tab at the heel is annoying. I am returning them unfortunately.

My other Hoka's are a neutral color with brighter accents. Love this new shade. Just putting them on makes any day a sunny day.

I love my Clifton 8 model sneakers. The Clifton 9 fits like they changed their last to mens sizing. The toe box is huge and the tongue and heel counter are too long. The outsole is higher and I need an outsole that is not so bulky like the original style. I am really upset that I can no longer find Clifton 8's online. If you are going to change the whole shoe, just call it another name and keep the Clifton 8's on the market! I do not know what the team in the Hoka Headquarters was thinking(?) to make this awful decision to completely get rid of the Clifton 8 which is an entirely different fitting and designed shoe!

These provide great support and were comfortable right out of the box. Perfect for long walks with the dog.

Bought the shoe and so much better than OC with its clunky stone-collecting midline on the sole. Comfortable and sturdy. Midsole hasn't worn out. Wear it daily for walking and knock about. Absolutely love this shoe!

I am always searching for comfortable shoes. Got these ones and could not believe how comfortable they are!! Started using them at the gym but will take them to future trips so my feet don't hurt after long walks. Thank you!

Clifton 8 truly made my life better. I have cerebral palsy and I have quite a bit of foot pain. The Clifton 9 is comfortable, but it's stiffer and not as cushioned in the foot bed area. Clifton 9 is a downgrade. I have arch pain with the Clifton 9 that I never had with Clifton 8

I originally bought my typical size 8 which were too big. I exchanged for a 7.5 which were again too big. I then tried to exchange again for a smaller size and was told I now can only return so therefore they lost a sale for this time and in the future!

I love HOKA shoes but CLIFTON didn't work for me. My knee and ankle pain came back. It's probably work for most of the people but unfortunately not for me . I returned it.

I purchased these because I was having awful pain in the heel of my foot. This sneaker is so comfortable and easy walking shoes. After changing over to this Hoka, the pain has certainly subsided. I found out afterwards that I have Plantar Fasciitis and was told I couldn't have make a better choice. I do plan to order more pairs.

I have had a pair of Hokas bought in February, 2023. They were great. This new pair is not wide enough in the toe box even though they are the same size. I have small bunions which cause no problems with the right sneaker. This one is not so great for me. I was told Hoka and Altrta were the best.

I do not like these new Clifton 9s. They don't feel like Cliftons anymore, they feel way too bulky/plush like Bondis. I had to walk with my feet wider apart so they wouldn't hit each other when I walked. I felt like I had huge marshmallows on my feet. The Clifton 8s are my favorite, and lots of other reviewers agree. Please bring them back!

I have planter faschitis, an old sprained ankle that still swells, and a tight Achilles Tendon. I have been trying to find a sneaker but with no luck. My podiatrist recommended Hoka sneakers. I finally broke down and bought a pair and they are WONDERFUL! In fact I bought a second pair.
