FAQs

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

The HOKA Clifton 10 is specifically designed for road running, making it ideal for daily training, long runs, and recovery runs on paved surfaces.

How much does a women's UK 5.5 Clifton 10 weigh?

The HOKA Clifton 10 for women weighs approximately 227 grams (for a UK 5.5).

What is the heel-to-toe drop of these shoes?

The HOKA Clifton 10 features an 8mm heel-to-toe drop.

How do I know what size to order if I've owned HOKA shoes before?

If you are an existing HOKA user, it is recommended to go half a UK size down from your usual HOKA size for the Clifton 10. If you are new to HOKA, stick with your usual running shoe size.

What is the 'Smooth MetaRocker'?

The Smooth MetaRocker is a rockered geometry design that encourages a smoother transition from landing to push-off, enhancing your running gait efficiency and overall ride.

How should I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?

Clean them by gently brushing off loose dirt, then spot clean with a mild soap and cool water. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat.

What does the 'Active Foot Frame' do?

The Rearfoot Active Foot Frame cradles your foot deeper within the midsole, providing inherent stability and a secure, supportive feel without adding excessive weight or traditional stability features.

Troubleshooting

Tongue slips to the side during runs.

Ensure you are using the double-lace lock feature on the tongue. Thread your laces through both loops to secure it in place.

Shoes feel slightly too big or too small, despite ordering usual size.

Re-check the specific sizing recommendation: new HOKA users should stick to their usual size, while existing HOKA users should go half a UK size down. Consider trying a different size if discomfort persists, as fit is personal.

Reduced cushioning feel over time.

The lifespan of running shoe cushioning varies by usage. If the shoes have accumulated significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles), the midsole may be compressed. It might be time to consider replacing them. Ensure proper care, as prolonged exposure to heat can degrade foam.

Foot feels unstable or insecure within the shoe.

Ensure laces are properly tied and snug, utilizing all eyelets. The Rearfoot Active Foot Frame is designed for stability, but an improper fit or lacing technique can compromise this. Check your socks for excessive slippage as well.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Sizing & Fit

  • Existing HOKA Users: We recommend going half a UK size down from your usual HOKA running shoe size for the Clifton 10.
  • New to HOKA: Stick with your usual UK running shoe size.
  • Lacing: Utilize the double-lace lock tongue feature to secure your foot and prevent the tongue from moving during your run. Ensure laces are snug but not overly tight to avoid pressure points.

Compatibility

  • Best Use: Ideal for road running on paved surfaces, sidewalks, and track.
  • Running Style: Suitable for neutral runners seeking high cushioning. The Active Foot Frame provides inherent stability without traditional motion control elements.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your HOKA Clifton 10 shoes, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., an old toothbrush) after each run.
  2. Spot Clean: Use a mild soap or shoe cleaner diluted in cool water with a soft cloth or sponge to spot clean soiled areas. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  3. Rinsing: Wipe away soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
  4. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not put them in a washing machine, tumble dryer, or place them near direct heat sources, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
  5. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
