Hoka does it again with the Clifton 10, another comfy and responsive shoe that I can't wait to put a million miles on.

Replaced Hoka Clifton 10
I liked the previous pair of Hoka Clifton 10 that your retail store fitted me for so much, I ordered the exact pair online. Got many miles on old Shoes, and so far same possitive experience with new shoes.

Excellent shoes
These shoes are the most comfortable I have ever worn. I especially like the heel cushion and that the back of the shoe is reinforced so your foot slips into the shoe without breaking down the heel cup.

Marathon Sports Rocks!
Marathon Sports was a great experience: easy to order on-line, one week to ship shoes to the West coast, and superior prices. I will continue to use in the future. HOKA Clifton 10 is like running on springs

The best show for those that love to walk
Recently switched to the Cliftons from the Bondi’s. Have several pairs of the Bondi 7’s and 8’s which I really like because of the cushioning, but I have to say the Cliftons not only provide the comfort of the Bondi’s but also provide an extra level of stability that I did not realize that I needed and was missing. Again I love both shoes but I have to say that I now will only wear the Clifton’s.

Good shoes, excellent exprience from Marathon
Have not had a lot of time to use this shoe, purchased it because of recommendation from web search for a good walking shoe. In limited use this shoe seems to satisfy my walking requirements for comfort and it doesn't hurt that it is an attractive color. Marathon Sports did a great job with timely shipping and ease of ordering.

Not as “spongy” as my previous HOKAs; tighter in the toe box than my previous HOKAs. Due to health issues, I haven’t yet been able to take them on a long run. They’re OK so far for shorter runs, and moderately-to-vigorously paced walks of three miles or less. I wish Marathon Sports would use a shipper other than USPS, because my shoes took almost a week longer than originally projected to arrive.

So far so good. The 2E wide size was delivered promptly. The additional MM heel drop seems to be going OK.

Don't Believe the Hype
(1) I bought for walking, and I found the toe box too tight. (2) I thought they'd look good as a lifestyle shoe, but they look kinda big and the sole makes it look too much like a running shoe. (3) I wear a size 10, but i had to go up to size 10.5 in this style.
