The HOKA Clifton 9 is designed for those who spend most of their time running on pavement. It strikes an ideal balance between cushioning and weight, offering a soft and lightweight running experience. Notable enhancements over its predecessor involve reducing overall weight, even with a 3mm increase in stack height. The outsole design has been improved for better performance, while a more comfortable heel, a reflective heel panel, and a sleeker tongue contribute to an overall improved running experience. With the Clifton 9, your daily runs are sure to turn into joyful and satisfying experiences!
