Detail
The ninth iteration of our award-winning Clifton franchise has launched, lighter and more cushioned than ever before. Eliminating weight while adding 3mm in stack height, the new Clifton 9 delivers a revitalized underfoot experience with a responsive new foam and improved outsole design. Removing overlays and hotmelts, the stripped back upper has been consciously crafted with a plusher heel, reflective heel panel, and streamlined tongue with single side medial gusset.

I'm a repeat customer and Hoka never disappoints. The Clifton 9 continues the legacy of great cushioning. I use them for my half-marathon training and they hold up well even after 50+ miles. No blisters, no hot spots. Just pure comfort.

Just finished my first marathon in these. No blisters, no pain. Just pure comfort. If you're on the fence, just buy them. Your feet will love you.

Just got these for my marathon training and wow. The energy return is insane. My knees feel so much better after long runs. If you're on the fence, just buy them. You won't regret it.

Bought these for my dad who has plantar fasciitis. He says they are the most comfortable shoes he's ever worn. Great support and cushioning for older folks needing extra care.

Just finished my first marathon in these. No blisters, no pain. Just pure joy. Well, mostly joy. My quads are still screaming, but that's on me, not the shoes. Definitely my new go-to for long distances.

Switched from Nike to Hoka and never looking back. These provide amazing shock absorption. My joints thank me after every run. Worth every penny.

I've been running in Hoka for years, and the Clifton 9 is another winner. The fit is snug but not tight, providing excellent support without feeling restrictive. I used them on a half-marathon last weekend and had zero blisters or hot spots. The durability seems solid so far, even after hitting some rough pavement. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable daily driver that doesn't sacrifice comfort for speed. Will definitely buy another pair when these wear out.

I stand all day at work and these have been a lifesaver. No more back pain at the end of the shift. They look sporty enough to wear with casual clothes too.

Soft landing, snappy takeoff. Perfect for my morning jogs. Feels premium without the premium price tag.
Sal******rtz
They are okay. Comfortable enough for walking, but I found them a bit narrow in the toe box. If you have wide feet, maybe size up or look elsewhere.
