Clifton 9

Daily Trainer2023-02-15 · Global · AnnouncedChecked 2026-10-19

Clifton 9 is a ninth-generation daily trainer for newer runners and regular mileage. HOKA raises the stack while reducing weight from its predecessor, pairing new compression-molded EVA with reshaped Meta-Rocker geometry for cushioning, response, and smooth turnover. A streamlined recycled-mesh upper, medial gusset, plusher heel, reflective panel, and zonal Durabrasion Rubber add secure comfort and durability.
