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 and extra heel cushioning for an enhanced, plush underfoot experience and improved comfort.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

The HOKA Clifton 10 is primarily designed for road running. While they can handle light, well-maintained paths, they are not optimized for technical trails due to their cushioning and tread pattern.

How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 trainers?

Clean with mild soap and cold water using a soft brush or cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or dry.

What does 'ultralight cushioning' mean?

Ultralight cushioning refers to the shoe's ability to provide a significant amount of soft, shock-absorbing material without adding substantial weight, offering comfort and performance.

How can I ensure the best fit and prevent the tongue from moving?

Utilize the double-lace lock system by threading the laces through the designated eyelets near the ankle. This helps to secure the tongue and ensure a stable fit.

Can I use these shoes for racing?

While the Clifton 10 offers excellent cushioning for daily training and longer runs, it is designed more for comfort and durability than for the aggressive performance of a dedicated racing shoe. Some runners may find them suitable for longer endurance races where comfort is paramount.

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

The HOKA Clifton 10 has an increased heel-to-toe drop compared to some previous models, offering a more cushioned ride and potentially benefiting heel-striking runners.

Troubleshooting

Tongue slips to one side during run

Ensure the double-lace lock system is utilized correctly. Thread the laces through the additional eyelets near the ankle and tie them securely to keep the tongue in place.

Shoes feel too cushioned or soft

This is a characteristic of the Clifton's plush design. If a firmer feel is preferred, consider shoes with less cushioning. Allow a break-in period as the cushioning adapts.

Feet feel warm or sweaty

Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, which can restrict airflow. Clean any dirt from the upper material, as debris can impede breathability. If the issue persists, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for road surfaces. For significantly wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The HOKA Clifton 10 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box with no specific setup required. They are designed as road running shoes and are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft cloth or brush. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials and construction.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
  4. Laces: Ensure laces are tied properly for optimal fit and to prevent tongue slippage. If laces become worn, they can be replaced with standard athletic shoelaces.
