FAQs

Who is the HOKA Clifton 10 best suited for?

The HOKA Clifton 10 is ideal for adult male runners seeking maximum cushioning for daily training, recovery runs, and high-mileage weeks. It's designed for neutral pronation.

What is the main difference between the Clifton 10 and previous versions?

The Clifton 10 features an increased stack height for more cushioning, a revised 8mm heel-to-toe drop for a smoother ride, and an updated breathable jacquard knit upper for improved comfort and fit.

How do I clean my HOKA Clifton 10 shoes?

Clean with a soft brush to remove dirt, and use a damp cloth with mild soap and water for tougher spots. Always air dry away from direct heat and avoid machine washing.

Can I use these shoes for racing?

While the Clifton 10 offers excellent cushioning and a smooth ride, it is primarily designed as a daily trainer. For faster race paces, a lighter, more responsive racing shoe might be preferable, but it can be used for longer, slower races if comfort is the priority.

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

The HOKA Clifton 10 has a heel-to-toe drop of 8mm.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

No, the Clifton 10 is designed for road running surfaces. Its outsole is not optimized for the varied and often rugged terrain of trails.

How does the jacquard knit upper contribute to the shoe's performance?

The jacquard knit upper provides a breathable and adaptive fit, ensuring comfort and support by conforming to the foot's natural shape and allowing for good air circulation.

Troubleshooting

Tongue slips to the side during runs.

Utilize the double-lace lock system provided in the upper eyelets to secure the tongue in place.

Unusual noise from the shoe.

Check for any debris trapped in the sole or between midsole components. Ensure laces are properly tied and not causing friction.

Reduced cushioning feel over time.

This may indicate wear. Inspect the midsole for compression. Ensure you are cleaning and drying the shoes properly to maintain material integrity.

Discomfort with the heel-to-toe drop.

Allow for an adjustment period of a few runs. If discomfort persists, the 8mm drop may not be suitable for your biomechanics; consider consulting a running specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The HOKA Clifton 10 requires no specific setup beyond lacing them up. Ensure the laces are snug but not overly tight to allow for natural foot movement while providing a secure fit. The double-lace lock system can be used to further secure the tongue and prevent migration.

Compatibility: These running shoes are designed for road running surfaces. They are compatible with most standard running sock types. Their design is suited for neutral pronation runners.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Clifton 10s:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures.
