Our take on the Hoka Clifton 9 Running Shoe

The Hoka Clifton 9 is a daily road trainer built around a thick compression-molded EVA midsole and Hoka's meta-rocker geometry, which rolls the foot from heel to toe. It is known for delivering a lot of cushioning at a relatively low weight, making it a common pick for easy runs, recovery days and long pavement efforts. The engineered mesh upper is light and breathable. Against rivals like the Brooks Ghost and ASICS Nimbus, it leans softer and more rockered, which some runners love and others find less stable.
