The Clifton Pro takes HOKA's most familiar cushioned trainer and adds pop. It keeps the comfort-first feel the Clifton is known for while carrying more energy return, which makes it a genuine one-shoe option for easy days and long runs that occasionally pick up.
The forefoot is more generous than HOKA's reputation suggests, accommodating without feeling sloppy. The heel collar and gusseted tongue are well padded and keep the midfoot locked down with minimal movement. It uses the same last as the Clifton 10, so if that shoe fits you, carry your size straight over. No real break-in needed.
Best for: Easy runs, long runs, everyday mileage
Sizing: True to size, and the same fit as the Clifton 10
