Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Hoka Clifton 11s, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during long runs.
- Break-in: While they feel comfortable out of the box, perform a few shorter runs to allow the midsole foam to adapt to your specific foot pressure points.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the shoes with cold water and a mild detergent. Remove the insoles to clean them separately. Always air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can warp the foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in a hot car, as the heat can degrade the cushioning integrity of the midsole.
