Upper

On this 9th edition of the Clifton, Hoka has used a Jacquard mesh material in the upper. Jacquard mesh provides a luxurious and ventilating feeling to your feet. Compared to the previous model, some changes have been made, making the shoe even more comfortable on your feet.

Midsole

The most significant change is that the midsole has been raised by 3mm, and the foam is softer and spongier than before. This has been achieved without making the shoe heavier, which is a bonus. The midsole consists of supportive and shock-absorbing EVA foam, which provides an incredibly comfortable feel when running. In addition, Hoka’s well-known Meta-Rocker technology helps give the shoe a rounded sole shape, thus complementing your foot roll and driving you forward. Furthermore, Hoka’s Active Foot Frame contributes to your foot being embraced, providing excellent support when running. This is because your heel and foot are positioned in the midsole instead of on top of it due to the Active Foot Frame’s design technique.

Outsole

On the outside of the Clifton 9 sits Hoka’s durable “High-abrasion rubber”, a rubber material providing excellent grip and superb durability. Most of this rubber is on the middle of the foot and less at the front, providing flexibility where needed.
