FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
No, the HOKA Clifton 10 is specifically designed for road running. Its outsole pattern and cushioning are optimized for paved surfaces and may not provide adequate grip or stability on trails.
How often should I replace my HOKA Clifton 10s?
Typically, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, or roughly every 4-6 months if you run regularly. Look for signs of wear like flattened cushioning, worn outsoles, or new aches and pains.
Can I machine wash my Clifton 10 shoes?
We do not recommend machine washing, as it can damage the materials and cushioning. Instead, clean them by hand using a soft brush, mild soap, and lukewarm water, then air dry.
What is the difference between the Clifton 10 and previous Clifton models?
The Clifton 10 features a revitalized underfoot experience with an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop, extra heel cushioning, a fine-tuned fit, and a breathable jacquard upper with a double-lace lock system to mitigate tongue migration, offering enhanced comfort and performance.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The Clifton 10 is designed with a fine-tuned fit. While it accommodates many foot types, if you have particularly wide feet, you might consider looking for specific wide-fit versions of HOKA shoes if available, or try them on to ensure comfort.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
For optimal comfort and to take full advantage of the shoe's breathability, we recommend wearing moisture-wicking athletic socks. Cotton socks tend to retain moisture, which can lead to discomfort and blisters.
Troubleshooting
Tongue slides to the side during runs
Ensure you are properly utilizing the double-lace lock system. This feature is specifically designed to mitigate tongue migration. Re-lace, ensuring firm tension.
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust your lacing technique. If too tight, loosen laces from the bottom up. If too loose, pull laces tighter across the midfoot. Consider trying different lacing patterns if discomfort persists. Review sizing to ensure it's correct for running shoes.
Foot feels hot or sweaty
Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking running socks. The breathable jacquard upper is designed for ventilation, but sock choice can significantly impact comfort. Allow shoes to air out thoroughly between runs.
Lack of expected cushioning
New shoes may require a few runs to break in and for the cushioning to fully adapt to your foot. If cushioning still feels off after a few runs, check if the shoes are past their typical mileage lifespan (300-500 miles).
Unusual squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur if there's moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe's footbed. Remove the insole, dry both components thoroughly, and reinsert. If the noise persists, it may indicate a manufacturing anomaly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Lacing: Utilize the double-lace lock system to achieve a secure fit. Begin by threading laces through the eyelets as usual. For the last eyelet (closest to your ankle), create a small loop by inserting the lace from the outside in, then cross the laces through the opposite loops. This technique helps lock the heel and prevent tongue migration.
- Sizing: Ensure you have adequate space (about a thumb's width) between your longest toe and the end of the shoe for natural foot expansion during runs.
Compatibility
- Surface: Exclusively designed for road running on asphalt, concrete, and paved surfaces. Not recommended for technical trails or off-road conditions.
- Activity: Best suited for daily training, long runs, recovery runs, and walking.
- User: Optimized for adult female runners seeking maximum cushioning and comfort.
Care
- Cleaning: Gently remove dirt with a soft brush and lukewarm water. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage materials and cushioning.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can warp materials. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure shoes are dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
- Lifespan: Running shoes typically last between 300-500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and terrain. Monitor for signs of wear such as flattened cushioning or worn-out outsoles.
