"HOKA’s Clifton 9 is a neutral everyday running shoe that boasts comfort and a low weight as its core principles. This iteration of the Clifton has been rejuvenated with an updated, lighter weight yet more responsive, CMEVA foam for a revitalized underfoot experience, and an additional 3mm of foam has been added in the stack height, enhancing cushioning without increasing the shoe's weight. The updated outsole design offers a high-level of durability and control on the road while a gusseted tongue offers a more secure fit and protects against rogue debris getting into the shoe. Finally, all these features are paired with HOKAs signature early-stage meta-rocker which delivers a smooth ride at any pace making the HOKA Clifton 9 a tried-and-true daily trainer that any runner or walker can enjoy."
