FAQs
What type of runner is the HOKA Clifton 10 best suited for?
The Clifton 10 is ideal for neutral runners seeking maximum cushioning for everyday miles, recovery runs, long-distance running, and walking. It's a great option for those who prioritize comfort and a plush ride.
How does the HOKA Clifton 10 differ from previous versions?
The Clifton 10 features a revitalized underfoot experience with an additional 3mm heel-to-toe drop (now 8mm), enhanced heel cushioning, a refined midsole geometry for improved stability, an improved forefoot fit, and a breathable jacquard knit upper with a double-lace lock system.
Can I use the Clifton 10 for speedwork or racing?
While the Clifton 10 offers excellent cushioning, its plush nature is primarily designed for comfort and durability over longer, slower miles. For faster workouts or racing, you might prefer a lighter, more responsive shoe in the HOKA lineup.
What is the heel-to-toe drop on the Clifton 10?
The heel-to-toe drop on the HOKA Clifton 10 is 8.00 mm.
How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 trainers?
To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Is the Clifton 10 suitable for walking as well as running?
Yes, the Clifton 10's plush cushioning and comfortable fit make it an excellent choice for walking, providing ample support and comfort for extended periods.
What does 'neutral stability' mean for this shoe?
Neutral stability means the shoe is designed with a balanced cushioning system that doesn't include specific features to correct overpronation or supination. It provides a supportive base without prescriptive elements.
Troubleshooting
Tongue migration or slippage
Ensure you are using the double-lace lock system correctly. Re-lace the shoes, focusing on snugness through the midfoot and ankle to keep the tongue in place.
Discomfort during initial wear
The increased cushioning and 8mm drop may require a brief break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter durations initially and gradually increase mileage to allow your feet to adapt.
Reduced breathability
Check the jacquard knit upper for any debris or blockage. Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, which can restrict airflow. Clean the shoes as per care instructions.
Feeling less stable than expected
The Clifton 10 is a neutral shoe. If you require enhanced stability features, consider consulting with a running specialist for alternative options.
