FAQs

Who is the HOKA Clifton 10 best suited for?

The HOKA Clifton 10 is best suited for runners who prioritize cushioning and comfort for their daily miles, recovery runs, and long-distance training. It's ideal for neutral runners seeking a plush ride.

How does the Clifton 10 differ from previous models?

The Clifton 10 features an additional 3mm in heel-to-toe drop and extra heel cushioning for a revitalized and more comfortable underfoot experience. It also includes an updated breathable jacquard upper and improved lace-lock system.

Can I use these shoes for speedwork or racing?

While the cushioning is plush, the Clifton 10 is primarily designed for daily training and comfort. For faster workouts or races, you might consider lighter, more responsive shoes in the HOKA lineup.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the HOKA Clifton 10 are road running shoes with breathable uppers and are not waterproof. They are designed for dry conditions and light rain, but not for heavy downpours or water immersion.

What is the recommended cleaning method?

Clean with a damp cloth or sponge and mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please refer to the point of purchase or the official HOKA website for specific warranty details.

How do I use the double-lace lock system?

The double-lace lock system involves using additional eyelets near the ankle collar. Thread your laces through these specific eyelets after standard lacing to create a more secure fit and prevent the tongue from shifting.

Troubleshooting

Tongue slides to one side

Utilize the double-lace lock system by threading your laces through the designated eyelets on the tongue to secure it in place.

Shoe feels too soft or lacks responsiveness

This is characteristic of the Clifton's plush cushioning. For more responsive feel, consider specific speedwork shoes. Ensure the fit is correct, as a loose fit can exacerbate perceived softness.

Discomfort in the heel area

The increased heel cushioning and drop might require a brief adjustment period. Ensure you are landing midfoot rather than heavily on your heel. If discomfort persists, consult a running specialist.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces

While designed for roads, traction on very wet surfaces can be reduced. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal grip. For extremely wet conditions, consider shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-distance comfort
  • Lightweight construction reduces fatigue
  • Improved breathability keeps feet cool
  • Secure lacing system prevents slippage
  • Durable outsole for consistent performance

Cons

  • Increased heel drop may require adjustment for some runners
  • Plush cushioning might feel less responsive for speedwork
  • Limited color options may not appeal to all
  • May not be ideal for runners seeking a minimalist feel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. Use the double-lace lock system if needed to secure the tongue and prevent movement during your run.

Compatibility:

Designed primarily for road running. Compatible with most standard sock types. No specific electronic or software compatibility is required.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth or sponge with mild soap and cold water. Do not machine wash or dry.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
