Building on over a decade of evolution, this model provides a plush, cushioned experience thanks to its compression-molded EVA midsole and refined mesh upper, making it an excellent choice for consistent training.

FAQs
Is the HOKA Clifton 11 suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the Clifton 11 is specifically designed for daily mileage, making it a highly capable shoe for marathon training cycles.
How does the Clifton 11 fit compared to previous versions?
The Clifton 11 features a refined technical mesh upper and a softer premium insole, offering a more precise and comfortable wrap than many earlier models.
Can I use these for trail running?
The Clifton 11 is designed as a road trainer; while it can handle light gravel paths, it does not have the aggressive lug pattern needed for technical trail terrain.
What is the benefit of the MetaRocker?
The Smooth MetaRocker is a curved sole design that encourages a natural rolling motion, which helps propel you forward and increases running efficiency.
How do I ensure the right size?
HOKA sizing is generally standard, but it is recommended to have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe for optimal comfort.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the Clifton 11 includes a premium, removable insole if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Tongue shifting during runs
Ensure you are utilizing the dual lace lock system by threading laces through the eyelets properly to lock the tongue in place.
Outer sole shows wear
The outsole is made of abrasion-resistant rubber, but heavy heel striking or rough surfaces will accelerate wear; rotate your shoes to allow the foam to decompress between runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your HOKA Clifton 11s provide the best performance and longevity, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the dual lace lock is adjusted to your comfort level; the tongue should remain centered without excessive pressure on the instep.
- Break-in Period: While ready for use out of the box, light walking or short runs help the foam and mesh adapt to your unique foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or debris from the outsole. For the mesh upper, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or putting them in a washing machine, as this can damage the structural adhesives and foam integrity.
- Air Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or intense sunlight to prevent material warping.
