Hoka Clifton 10
Hoka's flagship daily trainer got taller and moved to an 8mm drop in this version, with a compression-molded EVA midsole that stays soft without feeling mushy. It is the shoe most Hoka runners reach for on easy and moderate miles. Nothing about it is fast, but almost everything about it is comfortable.
Reach for the Hoka Clifton 10 for everyday training miles and easy recovery days. It's a neutral shoe, best for runners with an efficient stride who don't need pronation support. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
- Soft, protective ride for daily miles
