Product Information

Full details

The HOKA Clifton 11 is designed for runners seeking a reliable, plush daily trainer for everyday maintenance miles. It delivers an effortless, cushioned ride through compression-molded foam and a breathable mesh upper, making it an ideal choice for both long-distance efforts and short recovery runs. While it excels in comfort and stability, users should be aware that the high stack height requires an adjustment period if you are transitioning from minimalist footwear.

FAQs

Is the Clifton 11 suitable for wide feet?

This model is available in various widths; please check the specific product code to ensure you are selecting the version that matches your foot width requirements.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the foam and adhesive. Use manual cleaning methods with mild soap.

How long do the foam midsoles usually last?

Depending on surface conditions and weight, the cushioning typically retains its integrity for 400 to 500 miles.

Do these have reflective materials?

Yes, the Clifton 11 features integrated reflective details to improve visibility in low-light environments.

Are these suitable for gym training or cross-fit?

These are primarily designed for road running. For lateral movements found in cross-training, a shoe with more lateral support is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Tongue shifting during runs

Verify the double-lace lock is properly threaded and tightened over the center of the tongue.

Foam feeling firm out of the box

The foam requires a short break-in period; try wearing the trainers for light walking for 2-3 days to soften the cushioning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally cushioned for high-mileage comfort
  • Lightweight construction prevents fatigue
  • Reflective elements enhance safety in the dark
  • Secure fit with tongue-locking technology
  • Versatile for various running paces

Cons

  • High stack height may feel unstable to some
  • Not intended for high-speed track racing
  • Requires break-in time for those new to maximalist soles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest lifespan for your Clifton 11s, follow these guidelines:

  • Fitting: Ensure the double-lace lock is adjusted snugly against your instep to secure the tongue before tying your standard laces.
  • Breaking In: Wear the shoes for shorter walks or easy jogs for the first few days to allow the foam to compress naturally to your foot shape.
  • Cleaning: Hand wash only using a mild soap and a soft-bristled brush. Remove the insoles to air dry separately in a cool, shaded area.
  • Storage: Store in a dry, ventilated location away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can degrade the foam integrity.
