The Clifton
The Clifton has become my every day shoe. Whether I'm going for a walk, training in the gym, running on the trail, the Clifton is what I'm taking. Very comfortable shoe and the Clifton 9's now look to be the best looking HOKA in my opinion. Highly recommend everyone give them a try at least once with their return policy being so generous.

Finally the fit I have been looking for!
I have one pair of the clifton 7s which were my most comfortable shoes and one pair of the 8s that don't seem to fit right (too tight). These are perfect! They are a bit wider in the midfoot, a slightly bigger toe box and they seem a bit softer and are definitely lighter. Fit wise I wouldn't change anything. The design is a bit meh, my wife says they look like space shoes with the reflective lightning bolt pattern. I am willing to overlook these things in favor of comfort. I am loving my black ones and will be ordering the grey as well.

Great Update!
Couldn't wait for the 9's to come out! Went for a short first run last night. Seems everything that was an issue with the 8's was addressed. Felt like the fit across the top of the shoe was way more locked down. Heel slip from before is gone now. Great foam update with a much better meta rocker position to ease the push off. The roll forward is extremely smooth. This will be a great up-tempo option to add to my long slow runs in my Bondi's. Felt slightly narrow but I assume over a week of mileage they will settle in nicely.

I would not by series 9 again
This is my third generation purchase - having loved the 7 & 8 Clifton. The series 9's toe-box is cramped - I cannot run in the 9, I can only walk, row, or use the elliptical in them. Currently recovering from a blister on the baby toe.

Maybe a half size up or wide would work, but I can't afford to guess at this point.

NO
The bottoms are already wearing off and leaving black rubber on my floors - only have worn for one month and also when walking they make a clicking noise at the bottom. I have worn Hoka for a long time and have purchased many shoes from Hoka - this is the worse.

Clifton 8 was Great., Clifton 9 is the Worst
I have 6 pairs of Clifton 8s which were the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Could not wait for the 9s and what a let down. Literally, the worst shoe experience ever! Too tight and first time I have ever had multiple blisters from walking. Perhaps the material is new and unproven or they are being manufactured differently but the shoe is simply awful. What a disappointment! The 8 made me a Hoka customer for life, the 9 ended the relationship. Wish there was a zero star option.

will not last
First, these will get returned. I have 10 pair of various brand shoes, all size 10D and they fit perfectly. These in 10D are too tight across the top of the foot, and the width is very narrow at the knuckles. The sole is super soft, I don't see this lasting more than 2 months.

Disappointed
I bought product for my daily walk. I've never had problems with walking sneakers or shoes in the past. I wanted to upgrade after all the great reviews on HOKA . They kill my right foot so bad one walk I took them off and walked back barefoot

I will buy hokas from now on!
I've heard all the hipe about Hokas so I decided to purchase a pair. Now that I am older, 61, my feet were sore, and it was difficult to walk with the pain from low quality shoes. At our age we must stay mobile. I've had my first pair of Hokas for a week now and enjoy walking and exercising again! They fit great and have ordered a second pair! I bought a pair of Cliftons for my Ms. Carol, and she loves hers! They seem to be well made and I will keep you posted on their durability. Thanks Hoka you have to two new customers!
