In the generations since to the current Hoka Clifton 9. these shoes have continued to improve. The ride. fit. and looks have gotten better. but the spirit unbelievably soft and light running shoes of the original is the same. If running on a light pillowy cloud of foam is your goal. we suggest you try these out.
