FAQs
What is the main difference in the Clifton 10 compared to previous models?
The Clifton 10 features an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop and extra heel cushioning for enhanced comfort, along with a refined fit and a breathable jacquard upper with a double-lace lock system.
Who is the HOKA Clifton 10 best suited for?
It is ideal for adult male runners seeking a light and plush shoe for everyday training miles, recovery runs, and long-distance running where maximum cushioning and comfort are prioritized. It's best for neutral runners.
How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?
Clean them using a soft brush or damp cloth for dirt. Avoid harsh detergents. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat.
Can I use these shoes for racing?
While the Clifton 10 offers excellent comfort, it is primarily designed as a daily trainer. For racing, especially shorter distances or tempo runs, you might prefer a lighter, more responsive racing flat or performance trainer.
What does the double-lace lock system do?
The double-lace lock system utilizes additional eyelets to help secure the tongue in place, preventing it from shifting or migrating during your run, ensuring a consistent and comfortable fit.
What is the heel-to-toe drop on the Clifton 10?
The HOKA Clifton 10 has an increased heel-to-toe drop of 3mm compared to previous models, contributing to a different underfoot feel and improved heel cushioning.
Are these shoes good for trail running?
No, the Clifton 10 is specifically designed as a road running shoe. Its outsole is optimized for paved surfaces, not the varied terrain of trails.
Troubleshooting
Tongue slipping during runs
Utilize the double-lace lock system by threading your laces through the additional eyelets at the top of the shoe. Ensure laces are tied securely but not excessively tight.
Slight discomfort in heel area
This could be due to the increased heel cushioning. Try adjusting the lacing to provide more or less support around the ankle. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider alternate lacing techniques or consulting a running specialist.
Shoe feels less responsive than expected
The Clifton 10 is designed for maximal cushioning and comfort. For faster-paced running or workouts requiring more responsiveness, consider a different shoe model from the HOKA lineup. This shoe is best suited for daily miles and recovery runs.
Dirt accumulation on upper
Gently clean the upper with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the shoe is fully air-dried.
