FAQs

What type of running are the HOKA Clifton 10 best for?

The HOKA Clifton 10 are ideal for daily road running, including everyday training, recovery runs, and longer distances, due to their ultralight and plush cushioning.

How does the Clifton 10 differ from previous Clifton models?

Key updates include an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop for a revitalized underfoot experience, a fine-tuned fit, a breathable jacquard upper, and a double-lace lock to mitigate tongue migration.

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

The HOKA Clifton 10 features a specific heel-to-toe drop that has increased by 3mm from previous versions. Info needed: exact new heel-to-toe drop measurement.

How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 running shoes?

To clean your HOKA Clifton 10s, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft cloth. Air dry them completely away from direct heat.

Are these shoes suitable for walking or casual wear?

Yes, due to their exceptional comfort and cushioning, the HOKA Clifton 10 are also well-suited for extended periods of walking or general casual wear.

Do these shoes run true to size?

HOKA shoes generally run true to size, but it's always recommended to try them on or consult a size guide if you're unsure, especially if you have historically varied sizing experiences with athletic footwear.

What is the lifespan of the HOKA Clifton 10?

The lifespan of running shoes varies based on individual factors like mileage, running style, and body weight. Generally, running shoes are recommended to be replaced every 300-500 miles, or when the cushioning and support feel diminished.

Troubleshooting

Tongue slides to the side during my run.

Ensure you are utilizing the double-lace lock feature. Thread your laces through the two uppermost eyelets to create a secure lock that helps hold the tongue in place.

The shoes feel different from my previous Clifton models.

The Clifton 10 features an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop. This subtle change can alter the feel of the shoe. Give yourself a few runs to adjust to the updated geometry.

My feet feel warmer than expected in these shoes.

While the jacquard upper is breathable, ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks that wick moisture. Also, check that your lacing isn't too tight, which can restrict airflow.

The cushioning feels less responsive after many miles.

Cushioning naturally compresses over time. If your shoes have significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles, depending on individual factors), it might be time to consider a new pair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

First Use & Setup

  1. Lacing: When lacing your HOKA Clifton 10s, ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight. Utilize the double-lace lock feature by threading the laces through the extra eyelets at the top. This helps secure the tongue and prevents it from sliding down or to the side during your run.
  2. Initial Wear: Wear your new shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the fit and feel, especially given the increased heel-to-toe drop.

Compatibility

  • Running Surface: These shoes are primarily designed for road running and paved surfaces. While they can handle light gravel paths, their outsole is optimized for urban environments.
  • Footstrike: The generous cushioning and smooth ride accommodate various footstrike patterns, from heel strike to midfoot landing.
  • Socks: For optimal comfort and moisture management, pair your Clifton 10s with performance running socks.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care extends the life and performance of your shoes:

  • Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher grime, use a mild soap and cold water mixture with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage materials.
  • Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Remove insoles to speed up drying if they get wet.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures for prolonged periods, as this can degrade materials.
  • Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating your Clifton 10s with another pair of running shoes. This allows the cushioning to fully decompress and recover between runs, extending their lifespan.
