Hoka ONE ONE Clifton 9

Description

• Upper: Breathable engineered knit upper with a single-side medial gusseted tongue, streamlined ankle collar, and reflective heel panel for secure performance lockdown.

• Midsole Cushioning: Compression-molded EVA (CMEVA) foam midsole—offering 3mm of added stack height compared to the Clifton 8 while achieving a lighter overall physical weight.

• Cushioning & Stability Technologies: Early-stage Meta-Rocker sole curvature drives rapid heel-to-toe transitions, maintaining efficient running mechanics across long distances.

• Outsole: Strategic Durabrasion Rubber coverage placed at high-wear forefoot and heel zones to maximize outsole lifespan without adding unnecessary weight.

  Key Features & Benefits

• 3mm Extra Cushioning: Increased CMEVA foam stack height absorbs heavy ground impact while reducing physical shoe weight.

• Early-Stage Meta-Rocker: Propulsive sole geometry drives a smooth, effortless forward roll from heel strike to toe-off.

• Gusseted Tongue Stay: Midfoot tongue gusset prevents slipping and reduces top-of-foot pressure during long training runs.

• Durabrasion Rubber Outsole: High-abrasion rubber pods provide sticky traction across wet and dry pavement.

  Sizing & Fit Advice

   Fits True to Size (TTS) with a classic neutral fit. Runners needing extra volume in the midfoot or forefoot should opt for the Wide (2E) sizing option.

How to Find Your Size (Step-by-Step Guide)

1. Setup: Place a plain sheet of paper on a hard floor, flushed against a flat wall. 2. Position: Stand on the paper with your heel resting gently against the wall (wearing your preferred running/athletic socks). 3. Mark: Mark the furthest point of your longest toe on the paper with a pencil. 4. Measure: Measure the distance from the edge of the paper (wall) to your mark in Centimeters (CM).

Recommended Fitting Margin:

• Casual / Everyday Wear: Add +0.5 cm to your measured foot length.

• Performance Running / Trail: Add +0.5 cm to +1.0 cm for comfortable movement and natural toe splay over long distances.
