These shoes are super light and cushioned - they're also beautiful and versatile! I got the white and wear them with everything. However, after a few wears, they now feel like they have small air bubbles at the bottom of my left shoe that do a slight popping as I walk. Seems minor but the feeling is actually quite annoying so if anyone can help me with this, it would be so appreciated!

I’m a size 6 and my toes touched the very end with no wiggle room. I feel this shoe is cut on the small side for length. Width was fine. The color “Ether” was something to be desired it was a very weird and strange color. To some it might appear bluish gray, to others a lilac grayish. Either way it is NOT White and definitely was a no for me; returned it. Very odd color.

Very comfortable shoe, and I am a difficult fit with metatarsal issues and a narrow heel/ankle. I tried the Bondi, but its plush cushioning made my legs ache. So far the Clifton L's Balanced cushioning seems better for me. I also tried the All Gender Clifton L Suede, but the Suede made them feel too stiff. The NON-suede Clifton L has more flexibility, but not too much for my metatarsal area. Fingers crossed and hopeful that they remain comfortable, since I have not had them for long. Love the Barley color and especially that they were on sale. Please, offer more colors on sale!

I like these shoes so far but they will need a bit of a break in period. Some places hurt my feet a bit but I think that will stop once they are worn a bit. They offer good stability, comfort and help with my stride. I have some issues with my joints so these are going to be used primarily at work. I have the black pair and a coworker asked if they were orthopedic shoes. So maybe the other colors would eliminate that sort of look.
I own a pair of black Clifton Hokas and have had no issues with them, so I took a chance in purchasing the Clifton L in white. Loved the look and it felt comfy. Brought them with me on my trip to Japan and wore them every day. I ended up having blisters on four toes and my ankles ended up getting swollen. Also, some of the stitching came out on the top part of my shoe. the price I paid for these shoes, I shouldn't have been in any discomfort. I'd try these on before investing.
I had high hopes for this shoe as it was super cute aesthetically . However, the comfort was terrible. I wore them for three hours before my ankles and low back started to ache. I’m on my feet all day and unfortunately will not be able to use them for working. I’ve had other Hoka’s that were great shoes, but these were a big fail. I did order my regular size . It’s a very unusual fit as other reviewers have stated. It seems very unfortunate to have to put an insert in a $150 pair of shoes.
I absolutely love these shoes and I would buy them again and again. I have been wanting to try Hoka but waiting for a style that I liked and these are nice. They are extremely comfortable and have a lot of foot support with a wide toe box. By extremely comfortable I mean the best shoes I've ever worn. I feel like wearing these takes a lot of pressure of my joints and feet in general, and I feel more "free" with movement than my usual sneakers. They would probably be perfect for running or tennis (or other sports too) but I use them for daily shoes or walking shoes and they make taking walks amazing and so comfortable. They are also very lightweight while the shoe itself is sturdy if that makes sense.The one thing I didn't like was the sizing was pretty unusual. I ...

I recommend measuring your foot or going to a store in person to see what size you are before ordering online because I was not my normal size. I'm usually a women's 10/mens 8 and I ended up getting the M9.5/W10.5 which fit well.
These were my first pair of Hokas. After hearing all the raves about this brand, I decided to get it for work where I'm on my feet most of the time. I always thought these shoes looked very boat-like, but never really thought that would translate into walking in them. However, I think the base of these shoes are absolutely ginormous and tripped me up a few times moving laterally. It was like they kept getting caught on the ground. Would not recommend this shoe, or really the brand.
I love my new Cliftons. They are comfortable and have a complex design, but achieve an aesthetic symmetry that makes the shoe complete. The shoe is versatile - I can dress it up, dress it down, or wear it for athleisure. I actually ordered two pairs because I like them so much.The only critique I have is that the online pictures don't do them justice. Seeing them in person and trying them on is a much different experience.
I bought these for my new volunteer job as a theatre usher at Playhouse Square. You can be on your feet several hours and do stairs; my husband recently bought a different pair of shoes from you and said they were SO cushy and suggested your products. I have used them twice so far. The "job" has very strict dress requirements. Thank you for making all black shoes. Quality all black shoes, not the slip on kind, the ones with laces - are very hard to find. And I must wear shoes where the maker's name not prominently visible. It's there, but subtle! I did have to use a black sharpie to color the beige tips at the front and the reflective bits on the back loops for putting them on. The loops do make it easier to put the shoes on! I hated to have to color it over lol. ... MoreI bought these for my new volunteer job as a theatre usher at Playhouse Square.

I will definite recommend these shoes to other ushers.
