- Is the Clifton 9 Gore-Tex good for rainy runs?
- Yes. The Gore-Tex membrane blocks rain and splashes, and the rubber outsole grips wet roads. It is not fully submersible, so deep puddles can still get in over the collar.
- How does it differ from the regular Clifton 9?
- Same midsole, rocker and fit, but with a waterproof upper and rubber outsole. It is heavier, warmer and stiffer than the standard version.
- Does it run true to size?
- Most buyers take their usual Clifton size. The waterproof upper is less stretchy, so wide-footed runners may want to size up half a size.
- Is it good for walking and standing all day?
- Yes. The thick cushioning and rocker suit long walks and commutes. The extra weight is the main trade-off.
- Can I use it on trails?
- No. It is a road shoe with a road-oriented outsole. The waterproofing helps in wet weather but the grip is not made for mud or loose terrain.
- What is in the box?
- One pair of shoes. No spare laces or insoles are included.
