FAQs

What type of running is the HOKA Clifton 10 best suited for?

The HOKA Clifton 10 is ideal for everyday training runs, recovery runs, and long-distance efforts on roads, paved paths, and light gravel. Its plush cushioning makes it excellent for comfortable, consistent mileage.

How does the Clifton 10 differ from previous Clifton models?

The Clifton 10 introduces a revitalised underfoot experience with an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop and extra heel cushioning for enhanced comfort. It also features a fine-tuned fit, a breathable jacquard upper, and a double-lace lock system to mitigate tongue migration, offering an overall more refined and plush ride.

Is the HOKA Clifton 10 suitable for speed work or racing?

While the Clifton 10 can handle varied paces, its primary design focus is on cushioning and comfort for daily training. For dedicated speed work or competitive racing, you might prefer a shoe with a firmer, more responsive feel, though some runners find its lightness suitable for uptempo efforts.

How should I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?

To clean your shoes, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft cloth or brush. Rinse lightly and air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or machine dry.

What is the benefit of the 'double-lace lock' system?

The double-lace lock system is designed to keep the shoe's tongue securely in place, preventing it from slipping to the side during your runs. This feature enhances comfort and reduces distraction, allowing for a more consistent fit.

How often should I replace my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?

The typical lifespan for running shoes is generally between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and terrain. Listen to your body; if you notice a decrease in cushioning, support, or start experiencing new aches, it's likely time for a new pair.

Troubleshooting

Shoe tongue slips to the side during runs.

Ensure you are utilizing the double-lace lock eyelets at the top of the shoe. Thread the laces through both the last set of eyelets and the additional loop on the tongue for a more secure fit. Adjust lace tension to be snug but not overly tight.

Shoes feel less cushioned or 'flat' over time.

This is a normal sign of wear as the midsole foam compresses with use. The lifespan of running shoes varies by mileage and runner weight. Consider replacing your shoes every 300-500 miles, or when you notice a significant reduction in cushioning or support.

Experiencing hot spots or rubbing during runs.

Check your lacing for overly tight spots; try different lacing patterns. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks that wick moisture. Confirm your shoe size is correct, as ill-fitting shoes are a common cause of discomfort. Your foot should have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Unpleasant odor from the shoes.

After each run, remove the insoles and allow the shoes to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid storing them in a gym bag. For persistent odors, sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight, or use commercial shoe deodorizers. Do not machine wash.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Upon receiving your HOKA Clifton 10, take a moment to adjust the laces to a snug, comfortable fit. Utilize the double-lace lock eyelets (if desired) to ensure the tongue remains securely in place and prevent any slippage during your run.
  2. Break-In: While the Clifton 10 is designed for immediate comfort, a short break-in period of a few easy runs can help the shoe conform perfectly to your foot shape.

Compatibility

  • Running Surface: The Clifton 10 is primarily designed for road running, paved paths, and light gravel trails. Its cushioning and outsole pattern are optimized for these surfaces.
  • Activity Type: Best suited for daily training, recovery runs, and long-distance efforts. Less ideal for speed work or highly technical, aggressive trail running due to its focus on plush cushioning over firm responsiveness or extreme grip.

Product Care

Proper care extends the life and performance of your HOKA Clifton 10:

  • Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap (like dish soap) and cold water. Apply with a soft cloth or brush, then wipe clean. Do not machine wash or machine dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), which can cause materials to crack or shrink.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
  • Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles and allow both the shoes and insoles to air out. You can use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside the shoes overnight.
