Ten generations later, the Hoka Clifton They continue to evolve without losing their essence. The new Clifton 10 is the result of years of refinement, remaining true to HOKA's philosophy: offering maximum comfort without sacrificing performance.
And to celebrate, on May 31st we organized a product test in our Valencia store, with the presence of athlete Andreu Blanes, runner-up at Zegama-Aizkorri 2025.
Product test with Andreu Blanes
In our store The 365Rider running boutique (Valencia), we brought together runners of different levels to test the new Hoka Clifton 10Andreu Blanes' presence not only brought experience and technique, but also a sense of community, as he shared how he integrates different HOKA models into his weekly training.
Their current rotation includes:
- Speedgoat 6: trail running and mountain weight training sessions
- Clifton 10: daily workouts and easy runs
- DO 6: medium-high pace sessions
- Rocket X 2: demanding training and competitions (his favorite)
This is what the Clifton 10 feels like
One of the most relevant changes in this shoe is the drop increase, which goes from 5 to 8 mm. Although it's still considered a medium drop, this modification makes it more comfortable for those who land their heel first, which is common in daily training.
The midsole retains the foam combination CMEVA and geometry MetaRocker™, allowing for a smooth transition into running and helping to maintain pace naturally.
The redesigned heel counter improves support and provides a more precise, snug fit. The dual lacing system also prevents the tongue from shifting and provides a more secure fit.
Thanks to technology Active Foot Frame™, providing stability and security without the need for rigid reinforcements. Overall, it's a shoe that hugs the foot and offers security with every stride, ideal for daily training and on asphalt.
