HOKA Clifton PRO

The HOKA Clifton has been a benchmark for cushioned daily trainers since its debut in 2014, and now the brand is taking its flagship silhouette in a more performance-focused direction with the new HOKA Clifton PRO. Designed for runners looking to get more from their everyday miles, it builds on the familiar Clifton formula with updated geometry, new midsole technology, and premium materials that deliver a smoother, more responsive ride.

At the heart of the Clifton PRO is HOKA's new PROGLIDE+ platform, featuring a supercritical foam (SCF) midsole that offers a livelier underfoot feel while maintaining the plush cushioning the Clifton series is known for. Combined with a more aggressive MetaRocker profile, the shoe is engineered to create smoother transitions and help carry runners effortlessly through each stride.

The upper has also been refined with a lightweight engineered mesh construction, a gusseted tongue, comfort collar, and reflective details for improved visibility during early morning or evening runs. Underfoot, a redesigned podular outsole uses Super Abrasion Rubber in high-wear areas to increase durability without sacrificing the lightweight feel that has defined the Clifton family.

Whether you're logging easy recovery miles, daily training runs, or building toward your next race, the Clifton PRO delivers a more energetic take on one of HOKA's most popular road shoes. It's a thoughtful evolution that retains the comfort runners expect while adding a noticeably smoother and more efficient ride.
