Hoka Clifton 8 continues the tradition of super soft and light running shoes that Hoka is known for. Hoka Clifton 8 is one of our most popular shoes for good reason. They are super comfortable and a joy to run in mile after mile. The puffy light cushion absorbs shock no matter how you land on them and the early stage Meta-Rocker rolls your feet from one step to the next. mile after mile.
WHY PACERS CARRIES THESE SHOES:
When the Clifton first appeared. it was truly shocking how soft a shoe so light could be. Over time to the current Hoka Clifton 8. these shoes have improved in almost every way. They have gotten a more stable. the ride has gotten smoother. and they fit better. but the spirit of the game changing soft and light revelation of the original is the same. If running on a light pillowy cloud of foam is your goal. we suggest you try these out.
WHAT’S NEW:
The Hoka Clifton 8 is similar to the Clifton 7 we knew and loved. with a few subtle
improvements. The heel has been extended for additional ground contact which creates a smoother ride when you land on your heels. but thanks to a lighter foam. this doesn’t add much weight. Also the rubber in the outsole is more flexible to accentuate the smooth ride.
