FAQs
Who is the HOKA Clifton 10 designed for?
The HOKA Clifton 10 is designed for adult runners of all levels who seek maximum cushioning and comfort for everyday training miles, recovery runs, and long distances.
What is the main difference in this 'next-generation' update?
The key updates include an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop for a smoother transition and extra heel cushioning for enhanced comfort, alongside refinements to the fit and the addition of a breathable jacquard upper with double-lace lock.
Is the HOKA Clifton 10 suitable for racing?
While exceptionally comfortable, the Clifton 10 is primarily designed for daily training and cushioning. For faster races, runners might prefer a lighter, more responsive racing-specific shoe.
How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?
Gently brush off loose dirt, then use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is the heel-to-toe drop on the Clifton 10?
The HOKA Clifton 10 features an increased heel-to-toe drop of 3mm compared to previous models, resulting in a smoother ride and enhanced comfort.
Can the double-lace lock feature be ignored if I don't need it?
Yes, the double-lace lock eyelets are optional. You can lace your shoes as you normally would if you find the standard lacing provides sufficient security.
What kind of surfaces are these shoes best for?
These are road running shoes, making them ideal for pavement, sidewalks, and other hard, even surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Tongue feels like it's slipping or causing discomfort.
Utilize the double-lace lock system by lacing through the extra eyelets near the ankle to secure the tongue in place.
Shoes feel too soft or lack responsiveness.
This is characteristic of the plush cushioning. If a firmer feel is desired, consider a different shoe model. Ensure the fit is correct, as an incorrect fit can affect perceived responsiveness.
Feet feel warm during runs.
The jacquard upper is designed for breathability, but ensure socks are also moisture-wicking. If persistent, try running in cooler conditions or shorter distances.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces.
While designed for roads, extreme wet conditions can reduce traction. Run with caution on very wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole rubber is free from debris.
