Women's Running Shoes, soft, very cushiony, I use on roads for short/long distances, smooth, even , consistant run. Love design, colors. Switched to this shoe recently from my old brand/sticking with these. Would buy again, my 2nd pair. Alot of medical professionals wear them. Fits true to size.

Love the Clifton series. These are my 5th pair. Great “running on clouds” shoe. Warning… the 8s seem to be sized weird. I wear a 13 but in Clifton 8s I wear a 12.5. 

Thank goodness I bought them at Fleet Feet. No hassle exchange.

The Clifton 8 is a great everyday trainer. I've had several pairs of Clifton 7s and they're still in my shoe rotation, but it was time to re-up on a fresh pair. I'm happy with the Clifton 8 cushioning and slightly lighter midsole than the 7.

Solid daily trainer with lots of cushion. Not the fastest or lightest shoe out there, but a great workhorse.

A bit noisy shoes! Slight clunkier than I’m used to but sturdy and quality. Love the colors and enjoys the support. No real complaints, just seems squeakier than most other shoes

The Hoka One One Clifton 8 is one of the most comfortable running shoes that I've slipped on my feet in recent years. They're light, cushioned, and are responsive enough to cruise in a 5K. On top of that, the midsole remains soft in cold weather!

These shoes had a nice cushion and the toe box seemed to work well for me. I like a wider toe box

Man this has to be one of the best all around running shoes. Light, cushy, fast, great fit, roomy toe box, stack, drop and overall package is exceptional. Everytime I run in these I question why I run in anything else.

My favorite long distance shoe. Plenty of room in the toe box and stability through the ankle. Cushion right where I need it for a mid foot strike. Perfect for road or mild trail running.

Lightweight and fits snugly, gives a good layer of padding to the entire feet. Even used it on flat trails and never felt imbalance or slippery. I usually wear a Wide size in closed toe dress shoes, but bought a regular size for clifton 8. nice!

I have been running in Clifton’s for about 6 years now. I have to say the 5s are my favorite, but these are a close second. The only negative I can think of is that they are more narrow then past Clifton’s. I had to get a wide in this model.

As a beginner runner I wasn’t sure what shoes to utilize. These were recommended to me and I can’t thank that person enough. These are lightweight with amazing support and the best shoes I’ve ever run in!

Everyday runners the Hoka Clifton 8 was amazing from 3-13 miles! Never had an issue and put over 300 miles on a pair.

First time owning a pair of hola and regret not buying a pair sooner.  Feels like running on clouds and fits perfect not to tight and not too loose

Cloud like feel with tons of cushion for those unforgiving roads and sidewalks.  Provides good stability and a comfortable upper that is not only functional but also stylish.  This is a great training or race day shoe.

The shoe is super cushioned which is great for the knees but the insole moved a lot while running causing a blister on the side of foot.

My Hoka one one Clifton’s are by far my favorite shoes!! 

I have 0 complaints!! The cushion and sole are so comfortable!! I really enjoy these shoes!

These were my first *real* running sneakers and they didn’t disappoint! I did have to size down 1/2 size. They had great cushion and support. I trained and ran my first half marathon in them and they are still my go-to sneakers!

As someone who has struggled with low back pain while running, these shoes are very comfortable and allow me to log lots of miles comfortably. My go to for marathons!

These are fine for walking, but for running, they wore terrible blisters on my big toe that I’ve never gotten in other shoes. The cushion also doesn’t have any sort of rebound and doesn’t seem to continue to protect your feet for long distances.

This is my first pair of Hoka One One shoes and I could not be happier with the ride to this point.   The cushioning is like no other shoe that I’ve ever worn.  I will update once I put a few more miles on them.

Not a huge runner yet. But getting started they have been comfy and have been a nice transition into running. They have a lot more to do. Would recommend to anyone. New to running or not.

I am a beginner at running and was using nike frees… they gave me some knee problems, so I decided to try the Clifton’s. I ended up having no more knee pain and my feet felt amazing! I’m a true Hoka stan for life now.

the perfect shoe to run in! For me that has had 3 joint replacement surgeries at ages 47,48 & 49-both hips and Right knee, I need a shoe that will add extra cushion and comfort to make my bionic parts last.  I found that in Hoka!

My first and favorite pair of running shoes. They're really comfortable and are great for those long runs on the NIKE running plans!
