Overview
Logging smooth daily miles on a soft but light platform is what the HOKA Clifton is built for. A compression-molded EVA midsole helps transitions stay fluid, and a technical mesh upper breathes.
Light weight with soft cushioning suits everyday runs and long walks. Several spec fields on the page are clearly wrong, so rely on the core running details.
Who it's for
Daily training runs, treadmill sessions and all-day walking suit the light cushioned ride. Runners who need arch guidance should choose a stability model.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
