FAQs
What is the main difference in the Clifton 10 compared to previous versions?
The Clifton 10 features an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop for a plusher ride, a refined fit, and a new breathable jacquard upper with a double-lace lock system to prevent tongue slippage.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the Clifton 10's excellent cushioning and lightweight design make them very suitable for marathon training and race day, especially for runners who prefer a well-cushioned shoe.
Can I use these trainers for gym workouts or cross-training?
While they offer comfort, the Clifton 10 is primarily designed for road running. For dedicated gym workouts or activities requiring lateral stability, cross-training specific shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely away from heat sources. Avoid machine washing.
What does the 'double-lace lock' feature do?
This feature uses extra eyelets to help secure the shoe's tongue in place, preventing it from shifting or migrating during your run, ensuring a consistently comfortable fit.
What is the expected lifespan of the HOKA Clifton 10?
Typically, running shoes like the Clifton 10 last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you run on. Regular inspection for wear is recommended.
Is the updated heel-to-toe drop noticeable?
The increased 3mm drop provides a more pronounced cushioned feel and can contribute to a smoother heel-to-toe transition. Some runners notice this immediately, while others adapt quickly.
Troubleshooting
Tongue slips to the side.
Utilize the double-lace lock system by threading your laces through the designated eyelets near the ankle for a more secure fit.
Shoes feel stiff initially.
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter runs first to allow the cushioning and upper to adapt to your foot.
Feet feel too warm.
While the jacquard upper is breathable, ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks. If issues persist, consider trying in a cooler environment.
Reduced shock absorption over time.
Running shoes have a lifespan. If you've accumulated significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles), the cushioning may have compressed. Consider replacing the shoes.
