This is the Hoka Clifton 9 GTX running shoe, the waterproof Gore-Tex version of the incredibly popular cushioned Clifton 9 road running shoe. The Clifton 9 GTX takes everything people love about a Clifton 9, which includes a comfortable cushioned ride, asoft feeling straight out of the box and a surprisingly lightweight for a well-cushioned shoe and adds a waterproof upper to repel rain and puddles. The aim is leave you feeling warm and comfortable regardless of weather conditions.
You no longer have an excuse not to go for that run!
Running shoes like the Clifton 9 feature a meta rocker, designed to encourage a quicker cadence and keep you moving quickly with less energy. The Clifton 9 GTX has a modest heel to forefoot drop of 5mm, which would be great for runners looking to develop a more midfoot landing. A midfoot landing is also great for posture and cadence, compared with your heel hitting the ground hard essentially braking your stride somewhat.
