Product Information

Full details

The HOKA Clifton 11 is an ideal choice for neutral runners and walkers who prioritize cushioned support and weather protection in their daily training. Featuring a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane and a durable closed mesh upper, these trainers are specifically engineered to keep feet dry and comfortable during wet weather conditions; however, the added weather-proofing components may result in a slightly stiffer feel compared to non-GORE-TEX road running models.

FAQs

Are these shoes fully waterproof?

The HOKA Clifton 11 features a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane, which provides high-level water resistance to keep your feet dry in rain and wet conditions.

Can I use these for trail running?

While the traction pods offer improved grip, the Clifton series is primarily designed as a road trainer; they are suitable for light paths but not highly technical trails.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX upper?

Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh brushes or chemicals that could damage the water-repellant finish.

Are the laces replaceable?

The speed lace system is integrated; if damaged, you may need to replace them with standard laces or a compatible speed-lace kit from HOKA.

Does the GORE-TEX make the shoe heavy?

The Invisible Fit technology is specifically engineered to minimize weight and bulk, ensuring the shoe maintains its performance characteristics.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty adjusting the speed lace system

Ensure the lace lock is fully depressed before pulling the cord to release tension, and clear any grit from the lace housing.

Foot feeling too warm in mild weather

The GORE-TEX membrane is designed for moisture-wicking and protection; try wearing thin, moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool socks to improve thermal regulation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture protection for wet-weather running
  • Quick and convenient speed lace system
  • Increased traction on slick surfaces
  • High-visibility reflective elements included
  • Lightweight feel despite the waterproof membrane

Cons

  • May feel less breathable than pure summer trainers
  • Slightly firmer upper due to GORE-TEX integration
  • Limited to specific environmental conditions compared to standard models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most out of your HOKA Clifton 11s, ensure you use the speed lace system to find a snug but not restrictive tension. When the shoes become dirty, avoid machine washing them, as this can degrade the waterproof membrane and the internal adhesive. Instead, wipe the closed mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can warp the cushioning materials. Periodically inspect the traction pods for any lodged debris to ensure the grip remains optimal for your next run.
