Product Information

Full details

The HOKA Clifton 11 is designed for runners and walkers seeking a plush, cushioned ride that remains reliable in unpredictable weather. With its GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane and water-repellent coating, this trainer excels at keeping feet dry during rainy commutes or wet-weather training sessions, though its enhanced protective layers may feel slightly less breathable than standard non-weatherproof mesh models.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane designed to keep feet dry in wet conditions.

Can I use these for trail running?

While they have enhanced traction, they are primarily engineered for road and pavement use, not technical trails.

How should I clean the waterproof membrane?

Use a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or stiff brushes that could damage the waterproof layer.

Do these fit true to size?

Yes, the Clifton 11 generally follows standard HOKA sizing; refer to your previous HOKA size for the best fit.

Can I replace the speed laces with standard laces?

The speed lacing system is integrated for convenience, but you can swap them for standard laces if you prefer a traditional lockdown.

Why do the shoes feel warmer than my regular trainers?

The protective GORE-TEX membrane and closed mesh construction limit airflow to provide waterproof protection, which naturally reduces breathability.

Troubleshooting

Water entering the shoe during heavy rain

Ensure your socks are tucked securely and consider pairing with waterproof gaiters for extreme conditions.

Laces feel too loose or too tight

Adjust the speed lace toggles incrementally and walk for a few minutes to allow the upper to distribute pressure evenly.

Build-up of dirt on the mesh

Allow the mud to dry completely before brushing it off, as wet scrubbing can drive debris deeper into the membrane fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior water protection with GORE-TEX technology
  • Enhanced traction for wet and slippery road surfaces
  • Quick and secure fit via adjustable speed laces
  • Reflective elements for increased safety in low-light conditions
  • Signature plush HOKA cushioning for long-distance comfort

Cons

  • Reduced breathability compared to standard mesh trainers
  • Weather-resistant construction makes the shoe slightly stiffer
  • Not intended for technical trail terrain despite the added grip

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Clifton 11 trainers, follow these care and setup guidelines. When first using the shoes, adjust the speed laces to find your preferred tension; the laces are designed to stay secure without needing to be retied frequently. For compatibility, these are neutral road trainers suitable for standard foot types. When cleaning, do not machine wash or dry the shoes. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and affect the material's integrity.
