FAQs
Who is the HOKA Clifton 10 designed for?
The HOKA Clifton 10 is designed for adult female runners seeking lightweight, cushioned footwear for their daily runs. It is a neutral shoe suitable for road running.
What is the main improvement in the Clifton 10 compared to previous models?
The Clifton 10 features an additional 3mm heel-to-toe drop and enhanced cushioning under the heel for improved comfort, along with a refined fit and a breathable jacquard upper.
Are these shoes suitable for someone who overpronates?
The Clifton 10 is a neutral shoe. It is best suited for runners with a neutral gait. Individuals who overpronate may benefit from a stability shoe.
How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 trainers?
Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is the expected lifespan of the HOKA Clifton 10?
The lifespan varies depending on mileage, terrain, and running style, but typically running shoes like the Clifton 10 are recommended to be replaced every 300-500 miles or when cushioning feels significantly reduced.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
The Clifton 10 is designed primarily for road running. While they may handle very light, well-maintained trails, they lack the aggressive tread and protection needed for typical trail running conditions.
Does the shoe come in different colors?
Yes, the HOKA Clifton 10 is available in various colorways. The specific colorways can vary by region and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Tongue slides to one side
Utilize the double lace loop system to secure the tongue in place. Ensure laces are tied snugly but not excessively tight.
Feet feel too warm
This can occur during very hot weather or intense runs. Ensure socks are moisture-wicking. While the upper is breathable, extreme conditions may still lead to warmth.
Discomfort with heel-to-toe drop
If you experience discomfort, try incorporating them into your running routine gradually. Alternate with your previous shoes for shorter runs before committing to longer distances.
Reduced cushioning after extensive use
The midsole foam's cushioning will naturally decrease over time and mileage. Monitor the feel of the shoe; consider replacement when cushioning feels significantly diminished or upon reaching 300-500 miles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The HOKA Clifton 10 comes ready to wear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort. If you are new to HOKA or a shoe with a different heel-to-toe drop, consider a gradual transition period to allow your body to adapt.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed as neutral running shoes, best suited for individuals with a neutral pronation or those who use custom orthotics. They are compatible with most common running socks.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Clifton 10s:
- Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing.
- Remove insoles and dry the shoes separately at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Brush off excess dirt and debris regularly.
- Ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing them to prevent odor and material degradation.
