FAQs

What is the correct size for me in the Clifton 10?

For women, if you previously wore a HOKA Clifton 9 or Bondi 8, we recommend going down half a size UK. For example, if you were a 5.5 UK, try a 5 UK. If you are new to HOKA, stick with your usual running shoe size.

Are these shoes suitable for walking as well as running?

Yes, the HOKA Clifton 10's plush cushioning and comfortable fit make them an excellent choice for walking and everyday casual wear in addition to running.

How often should I replace my HOKA Clifton 10s?

The typical lifespan for running shoes is between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and terrain. Pay attention to signs of wear in the outsole and changes in cushioning feel.

Can I machine wash my Clifton 10 shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and cushioning. Instead, clean them gently by hand with a soft brush, mild soap, and water, then allow them to air dry.

What kind of terrain are these shoes best for?

The Clifton 10 is primarily designed for road running, including paved surfaces and sidewalks. Its stability and cushioning also make it suitable for light, well-maintained gravel paths or packed dirt trails.

What does 'retuned midsole geometry' mean?

It refers to adjustments made to the shape and construction of the shoe's midsole. For the Clifton 10, this means improved design elements that enhance the shoe's inherent stability and provide a smoother, more balanced ride.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or too loose despite correct size.

Adjust the lacing carefully, focusing on the double-lace lock system. Ensure laces are evenly tightened, not just at the top. Experiment with different lacing patterns if needed.

Tongue slips to the side during runs.

The double-lace lock system is designed to prevent this. Ensure the laces are properly threaded through the tongue loop (if present) and that the laces are tightened adequately across the midfoot.

Discomfort or rubbing on the top of the foot.

Check if the laces are too tight. Loosen them slightly or try skipping an eyelet if a specific pressure point exists. Ensure your socks are well-fitting and not bunching.

Decreased cushioning feel over time.

Running shoe cushioning naturally compresses with use. Consider the shoe's mileage; most running shoes last 300-500 miles. Rotating shoes can also help extend the life of the cushioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Utilize the double-lace lock system to secure your foot snugly but comfortably. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened across your foot to prevent pressure points and keep the tongue centered.
  2. First Wear: Wear your Clifton 10s for short walks or light activities before your first run to allow them to conform to your feet. This helps in understanding the new fit, especially if you've adjusted your size.

Compatibility

The Clifton 10 is optimized for road running and light, well-maintained trails. Its cushioning system is designed for hard surfaces, providing shock absorption and a smooth transition.

Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Gently clean the upper with a soft brush or damp cloth. Use mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can cause materials to shrink or warp.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures.
  • Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating your Clifton 10s with another pair of running shoes to extend their lifespan and allow the cushioning to fully recover between runs.
