The Clifton 9, a continuation of the award-winning Clifton series, materialized in February 2023. This iteration, bearing the Vibrant Orange/Impala colorway, represents HOKA's dedication to evolving a beloved franchise. The Clifton line itself has become a staple, embodying HOKA's commitment to maximalist design and performance running footwear.
Designed for a spectrum of activities, the Clifton 9 excels in everyday running, walking, and active recovery. Its inherent stability and rocker geometry support a natural stride, making it suitable for both casual wear and rigorous training. The shoe's design, including a partially gusseted tongue, ensures a secure and comfortable fit, catering to a range of foot volumes.
The HOKA Clifton series has profoundly impacted the footwear landscape, embraced by the running community and beyond. The Clifton series has become a cornerstone of the 'gorpcore' trend, reflecting its blend of performance and aesthetic appeal. The series' influence is undeniable, and the Clifton 9's APMA Seal of Acceptance reflects its benefits for foot health.
The Clifton 9 boasts a breathable engineered knit upper, a stripped-back design, and recycled content. Its construction includes a compression-molded EVA (CMEVA) foam midsole, ensuring a plush and responsive underfoot experience. The outsole incorporates Durabrasion rubber, strategically placed for enhanced traction and longevity, ensuring it is ready for any terrain.
