Product Information

Full details

The HOKA Clifton 11 GORE-TEX is a versatile, weather-ready trainer designed for runners who need reliable cushioning and protection against the elements. Ideal for daily training in wet or variable conditions, it features a specialized membrane and water-repellent coating to keep feet dry, though the increased protective layers may feel slightly stiffer than non-waterproof road versions.

FAQs

Are these shoes fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane that provides complete waterproof protection while maintaining a flexible fit.

Can I use these for trail running?

While primarily a road trainer, the traction pods make them suitable for light trail paths and variable, wet road conditions.

How should I clean the GORE-TEX membrane?

Avoid chemical detergents. Simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area.

Can I replace the speed laces with standard laces?

While the shoe is designed for speed laces, you can swap them for standard laces if you prefer a different lockdown feel.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard HOKA sizing. If you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider a half-size up.

Are these reflective?

Yes, they include integrated reflective details to improve visibility in low-light conditions.

Troubleshooting

Speed laces feeling too tight

Adjust the toggle tension by pulling the lace loops outward to redistribute pressure evenly across the top of the foot.

Outer material showing signs of dirt buildup

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to gently wipe the closed mesh upper. Do not submerge or scrub harshly.

Loss of water-repellency

Apply a spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for technical footwear to restore the surface coating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent weather protection with GORE-TEX integration
  • Easy-to-use speed lacing system for quick transitions
  • Enhanced traction for wet surface reliability
  • Reflective elements for increased safety
  • Maintains signature HOKA cushioning feel

Cons

  • Slightly less breathable than traditional non-GORE-TEX mesh
  • Materials are naturally firmer due to waterproofing
  • May feel warmer during high-intensity runs in hot weather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Clifton 11s last, avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the GORE-TEX membrane and adhesive bonds. If the shoes become muddy, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Use a soft brush to remove dried dirt. The speed lace system can be tightened by sliding the toggle; ensure it is set comfortably across the bridge of your foot to prevent pressure points. For those transitioning from standard shoes, the stack height remains consistent, making it a familiar fit for existing HOKA users.
