Features
The men's HOKA Clifton 9 has the cushion and comfort you crave for long runs, long walks and long hours spent on your feet—all in a sleek and lightweight package.
Confident running starts with finding a shoe with the right balance of support, comfort and performance. The Clifton 9’s unrivaled cushioning and soft step-in feel make it easy to get excited about lacing up your shoes and going for a run.

With a comfortable fit right out of the box and responsive cushioning that makes running feel easy, it’s no wonder why so many runners say the Clifton is one of the best running shoes they’ve ever worn.

Dont rush with buying
Very nice sales persons.Kinda felt rushed as it was on a saturday morning.Store did not have but about 3 pair of wide shoes to pick from.And all were black!
Comfortable!!
Super comfortable. Well made. All black so don't show the dirt.
Comfort.
320 lbs on concrete 12 hrs a day they are the best shoes I've put on my feet.
Helped me run again
I ran in Nike Pegasus for 25+ years until old injuries to my foot resurfaced and I had to quit running for a couple of years. The only shoes that have allowed me to run again are Hoka Cliftons. The cushioning and tread wear are excellent. I’ll be wearing them even after I stop running if that ever happens again
Great on trails and roads
I bought this shoe once in 9th grade and again this year in 10th. Both years I have run over 500 miles on them and they are extremely durable. I ran on trails and roads and they held up nice. Once you get about 75-100 miles on them the foam started to flatten so it was harder to run on the roads but running on trails is nice. I run about 8 miles a day and they don't give me blisters or pains. They last about 400-450 miles depending on how fast you run and how your foot lands. If you heel strike possibly closer to 400 miles but if you land midfoot you could get upwards of 450 miles. I'm growing out of these ones but they could still last another hundred or so miles. I recommend this for runners of all abilities.
Great shoes.
My husband loves them. He needs shoes that are soft inside.
A good iteration of the Clifton series
I like these more than the Clifton 8's but I don't know why.
Hoka Running Shoes
So happy I went to Fleet Feet in Poughkeepsie amazing staff and assistance. They helped me find the Hoka Clifton 9 shoes and they have been incredible! Tremendous cushioning and stability!
An Outstanding Shoe
These were a gift for my grandson. He loves them. He wanted them for work because he is on his feet mostly. Said on the first day he wore them they were supremely comfortable and his feet did feel tired.
