Full details

The HOKA Clifton 11 is designed for dedicated runners and daily commuters who require reliable performance regardless of the weather. By integrating a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane and a weather-repellant coating, these trainers offer an exceptional balance of cushioning and protection against the elements, though the added weatherproofing may make them feel slightly more structured than the standard Clifton model.

FAQs

Are these shoes completely waterproof?

The HOKA Clifton 11 features a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane and water-repellant coating, providing a high level of protection against rain and puddles, though they are not intended for submersion.

Can I use these for trail running?

While optimized for road and urban use, the traction pods provide enough grip for light gravel paths and managed trails.

How do the speed laces work?

The speed laces allow you to adjust the fit quickly without tying knots. Simply slide the toggle to lock in your preferred tension.

Do these fit true to size?

Yes, the HOKA Clifton 11 typically fits true to your standard HOKA size, though the waterproof membrane may result in a slightly more structured feel than non-waterproof models.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required or to facilitate faster drying after a wet run.

Do I need to treat the upper with a spray?

The shoes come with a water-repellant coating, so additional sprays are generally not required, though you may re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after significant wear to maintain water beading.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel too tight or loose during the run

Adjust the tension on the speed lace system incrementally, ensuring even pressure across the bridge of the foot before starting your activity.

Outer mesh appears dusty or stained

Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap with lukewarm water to gently clean the surface. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.

Feeling of dampness inside the shoe

Ensure the top of the shoe is properly secured to prevent water from entering through the ankle collar. If perspiration is the cause, remove the insole to allow for better airflow after use.

Pros and Cons

  • Increased safety with integrated reflective elements

  • Waterproof membrane alters the flexible feel of the upper
  • Limited to specific aesthetic styles compared to non-GORE-TEX versions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your HOKA Clifton 11 trainers, ensure they are properly cleaned after use in muddy or salt-heavy conditions. Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the closed mesh upper, and wipe the midsole with a damp cloth; avoid soaking the interior. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, which can degrade the synthetic materials over time. If the shoes become saturated, remove the insoles and air dry them naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane adhesive.
