FAQs

What is the main difference in the Clifton 10 compared to previous versions?

The Clifton 10 features an increased 8mm heel drop, softer CMEVA midsole foam, and an updated jacquard mesh upper with a double lace lock system for improved fit and comfort.

Is the HOKA Clifton 10 suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Clifton 10's plush cushioning and lightweight design make it suitable for marathon training and race day, especially for runners who prioritize comfort over a highly responsive feel.

Can I use the Clifton 10 for speed work?

While the Clifton 10 is primarily a daily trainer, its lightweight nature allows for some versatility. However, for dedicated speed work, a shoe with a firmer, more responsive midsole might be more appropriate.

How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or dry.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Clifton 10?

The HOKA Clifton 10 has a heel-to-toe drop of 8mm.

Does the Clifton 10 offer stability features?

The Clifton 10 is a neutral shoe. It incorporates an Active Foot Frame that helps cradle the foot, offering inherent stability without traditional support mechanisms.

What is the weight of the HOKA Clifton 10?

The HOKA Clifton 10 weighs approximately 277g (for a men's size 9).

Troubleshooting

Tongue slips during runs

Ensure the double lace lock system is correctly used. Thread the laces through the designated loops on the tongue to secure it firmly.

Discomfort with the increased heel drop

If you're new to an 8mm drop, gradually increase mileage in the shoes to allow your body to adapt. If discomfort persists, consider a shoe with a lower drop.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Midsole cushioning naturally degrades with use. Rotate shoes to allow foam to recover and consider replacing after 300-500 miles, depending on wear patterns.

Upper feels too tight in the forefoot

Ensure the laces are not overtightened. The jacquard mesh is designed for a snug fit; if it remains uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size up or a different model.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-distance comfort.
  • Lightweight design reduces fatigue.
  • Versatile for daily training and recovery runs.
  • Improved upper fit and tongue security.
  • Reflective details increase safety.

Cons

  • Increased heel drop may not suit all runners.
  • Softer foam might feel less responsive for faster paces.
  • Potential for tongue slippage if double lace lock is not used correctly.
  • Durability of the jacquard mesh in extreme conditions may vary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The HOKA Clifton 10 requires no specific setup beyond tying the laces. Ensure the double lace lock is utilized correctly to prevent tongue migration. The fit should feel snug but not restrictive, with ample room in the forefoot.

Compatibility: This shoe is designed as a neutral running shoe, compatible with most foot types for daily training. It performs best on paved surfaces like roads and treadmills.

Care: To maintain the integrity and performance of your Clifton 10s:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water, and allow to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
  • Rotation: Consider rotating your Clifton 10s with another pair of shoes if you run frequently, to allow the midsole foam to recover and extend the life of both pairs.
