Best review I’ve seen yet. Glad you mentioned us walkers in this. I have a titanium hip & was told I can’t run if I want it to last at least 15 years, so it’s “power walking” from now on!
Thanks for putting out this great comparison video! I really suffered with plantar fasciitis and arthritis in my ankles until found the Clifton 7’s. I didn’t mind spending the big bucks if I could get relief. I now walk without limping, my back and knees don’t hurt… I wanted to get another pair of 7’s and was upset to find they were replaced by the 8 and now 9 Clifton’s. I just didn’t want to spend so much money on the shoes if I wasn’t going to get the same “ healing “results for the fasciitis. This video helped assure me that the Clifton 8 should be just as good or perhaps even better.
Great review. I can feel the support to the inside of my heel and arch when standing in the Clifton 8. My ongoing plantar fasciitis has disappeared since wearing this shoe. I wear the shoe at my job and walk only. This is a very comfortable shoe.
Thanks for covering this. I am an active walker and need a better shoe that provides more room and support for toe spread as well as my heel. I think I will put the Clifton 8 at the top for consideration.
That was a great review. I am so happy with my Clifton 7 but soon I'll have to replace them. The thing it's that I also run with my Rincon 2 for those days of interval days, drills... going faster. The thing that worries me a little is the new Clifton 8 being closer to the Rincon. As you said new Clifton is more responsive and narrower, shall I get them or buy another pair of Clifton 7?? By the way, it's the first of your videos that I watch, won't be the last. Nice, clear and deep enough. Great job, Tim!! Thanks indeed!!!
If you love the Clifton 7 I'd save a little cash and pickup a pair while they are on sale. I think you'd be fine however if you decided to get the 8 as well. The differences between the 7 and 8 are on the subtle side. Hoka played it safe with their updates. Hey thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great day.
Great review. Right on with the midsole. I ordered some 8s to replace 7s, assuming that Hoka would maintain the same fit. Middle is super tight compared to 7, to the point where I think I'm going to have to return these 8s. Even with the laces super loose still really tight in the mid area. Also heel is slipping out of these and not out of the 7s.
I'd probably go with the wide version of the Clifton. Most Hoka shoes tend to run narrow. The Clifton 8 does feel roomier in the toe box than other Hoka models and it does come in a Wide version. Have a great weekend and stay safe my friend!!!
I've had many Clifton 6 and 7's and loved them. I've put around 300 miles on the 8's. Also, I have had alot of adductor pain for a few weeks now. Thinking about it to try to find out why that is, it started about the same time as I started running in the 8's, so I have to assume that it's from the softer sole.
Great review on the shoes. I currently run in the Bondi 7 and the Arahi 5 and been think about adding a pair of Clifton 8. Do you have a review on the Clifton 8 verses the Clifton Edge?
Hi Shannon. I didn't do a comparison or battle video between the two. The Clifton Edge is one of the few shoes I returned. The extended heal wasn't right for me. I do like the Clifton 7 and the 8 a lot. The Clifton is lightweight and versatile. It's one I really enjoy running in. Thanks for watching. Have a great day. Happy Holidays!
I have been wearing the 7s and love them. Basically can roll through the km. Also good for casual. Wish they were a millimetre or 2 wider in toebox. Thinking about getting the 8 s as well.
I really like the Clifton 7's. They made my list of top running shoes for last year. Thanks for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it. Have an awesome day!
Ive loved my clifton 7s but the sole has been destroyed so quickly, im a supinator and the outside edge is destroyed well within the year. I really need some more but struggling to commit to a hoka that dies so quickly. Does the clifton 8 last any longer? or do i need to go to a trail shoes despite being on the road?
Hey great question. Unfortunately I think you can expect to get about the same number of miles out of the Clifton 8 as you did with the Clifton 7. The Brooks Ghost or the Saucony Ride are both very durable shoe that you might consider. There are a few road to trail shoes out there that are to bad like the Nike Pegasus Trail Shoe. They are best on light trails. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching and have a great day.
Is there any running shoe out there that is more comfortable than hoka bondi 7 ? I have 4 pairs for bondi 7 and I am looking for something more cushy or similar to bondi 7. Thanks!
I am really impressed with the New Balance Fresh Foam More V3. Super soft and comfortable to run in. If you are looking for something with a little more speed but are also super soft, I really like the Skechers Maxroad 5 also. The New Balance Aurora is another max cushion super soft shoe but it comes with a high price tag and not everyone likes the look of the shoes. Have a great day and thanks for watching.
Between these two I'd go with the Clifton 8. I like the 7 but the upper on it has a little more stretch to it than I think it needs. Have a great weekend and thanks for watching.
Hi Tim. Was persuaded by your review of the NB Fuel Cell Rebel v2 but there just aren’t any to be had ! Second choice is either Hoka Clifton 8 or Saucony Triumph 19. As a novice runner, which would you advise please ?
I'd go with the Hoka Clifton 8. They are a great all around running shoes that you can pretty much do everything in. Thanks for watching and have a great day. Stay safe!
Hey Tim- im a walker ! tend to heel strike as well - I usually like the brooks glycerin but they have made them too small for me- would you recommend this to someone coming from a 12mm drop or do you think ill hate them the second I take my first step
That might be a big jump going from a 12mm offset too a 5mm. I think the Clifton makes a good walking shoe. But the biggest concern is the change in the stress points on your ankles, knees, and so on. If you are on your feet a lot and have become accustom to the larger offset going to a 5mm might not feel comfortable. You might not have an issue at all, but their is that chance. Maybe a running/walking shoe with a 10mm or 8mm might be a safer choice. Alternatively, if you decide to try the Clifton maybe find a retailer with a generous return policy in case they don't meet your expectations. Have a great day and thanks for watching!
I'd say they are moderately cushioned. They aren't a responsive ride where you get a lot of road contact feel but they are not a max cushion running shoe either. The most cushioned running shoe that I have run in this year is the New Balance Fresh Foam More V3. Have a great day and thanks for watching and for taking the time to ask the question. Have a great day. Stay safe.
Great review. I have the Clifton 7. I found that they stress my achiles tendons.. I attribute it to them being not flexible enough and not stable enough... You run in Gaviota 3 and Arahi etc... How do they compare and don't you hurt yourself by using them?
Hey thanks for watching and taking the time too ask the question. Sorry to hear that the Clifton doesn't work for you. The Arahi is closest to the Clifton when compared to the Gaviota. The Gaviota 3 is the least flexible of the 3. It's a max stability shoe that does a great job to control pronation. Although Hoka added more EVA foam to the mid sole when updating the Gaviota 2, they feel less cushioned to me. I like the Arahi a lot. It has a mild amount of pronation control with enough cushion to give you a soft ride (as long as you mid too forefoot strike). I tend to over pronate so it's easy for me to run in stability shoes and as long as I mid to forefoot strike, I can typically run in most neutral shoes as well. Have a great day and thanks again for watching.
Packing 2 titanium hips, I do brisk walking. I like the 7s and need to pick up another pair, but I'm always open to something better. I went from NB 1080v11 to the Clifton 7 because I like the snappy feeling and could go faster. Will the 8s be the same and is there a better model that I might try?
Holy cow. First, it is awesome that you are getting out there. Major medical things like your hip replacements are life changing. I hope you are doing well. The differences from the Clifton 7 to the 8 are subtle when it comes to the midsole ride. The Clifton 8 is still a good shoe, it's just not much different than the 7. Depending on what you are going for, the Brooks Ghost and the Saucony Ride are solid shoes. If you want something with more cushion the Novablast 2 is a good one as well. I personally have been running a lot in the Asics Gel Nimbus 24. They are a little heavier but I really like the impact protection I get from the gel in the heel and forefoot. They also feature Asics newest midsole foam their FF Blast+ . Have a great day and thanks for keeping the conversation going.
Hi Tim, I tried the ghost and found them a bit too hard. That's when I found the Clifton 7 at rei, my 1st hoka shoe. It has been my daily trainer, and I can brisk walk further and faster. I was just wondering if there is a softer shoe out there that may have the zippiness of the Clifton but not as sloppy soft as the 1080v11. I do 2 miles and want to work towards a 5k. I used to be a runner in my younger days.
Got ya. Staying with in the Hoka family you might like the Rincon or the Mach 4. Both are still soft but faster than the Clifton. Enjoy shoe shopping. Let me know what you decide. Have a great night.
Hey Tim, just wondering, it’s looks like you supinate a little on your right foot. Is that correct? I supinate a bit on both feet, the left a little more. The outsoles of my Clifton 7 shows a lot more wear on the outer edges.
Hey Terence. I have a low arch and tend to over pronate when I run but when I am filming with my GoPro, then yes. It's a challenge some days to try and hold the selfie stick perfectly still because I can't use my right arm as a counter balance while running and sometimes because of that, I tend to have my legs crossover to compensate. I'm getting better at it, but it's a little weird to film that way. Hey thanks so much for watching and leaving the comment. I really appreciate it. Have a great day.
It's always great to get a good deal on running shoes. Sorry to hear you are having some pronation issues though. The Gaviota 3 is a max cushion max stability shoe. They do a great job controlling pronation. Hoka changed up the mid sole from the Gaviota 2 adding a couple mm more EVA foam. They feel like they have even more motion control in the 3 over the 2. For me, I prefer the Gaviota 2 or the Arahi 5. The Arahi features a mild amount of stability when compared to the Gaviota series. I haven't had the opportunity to run in the Hurricane 22 yet but it is a shoe I'm interested in. Have a great day!
Do you find the durability of the 8 is improved over the 7 or 6? I've found they both tear just around the midsole on the inside just behind the ball of the foot after around 700 miles/ 1100km's use which is admittedly near the end of the shoes serviceable life...
Hi Peter. Holy cow 700 + miles on a single pair of running shoes is impressive!!! Way to go. It's awesome. I haven't taken them up that high. I run in so many different running shoes to review on the channel that 200 miles is about the max that I put on a single pair these days. The two Hoka shoes that I've taken that far have been there Rincon and the Gaviota 2. In both cases the uppers held up well. Hey thanks for sharing your experiences. Have a great weekend.
I like the cush in some parts and stiff of other parts of mid sole of the old hoka Stinson. I don't run alot but do cardio in gym using a hit of every type of machi except bikes. I'm 5 ft tall with bad feet. I'm not a huge fan of extra soft. Not sure I will this Clifton. What do u think
Hi Kim. They might be a little too soft for you. They aren’t marshmallow soft but they are softer than a gym style cross fit cross trainer would be. Have a great day. Happy New Year!
What do you think of Clifton 7 compared to the bondi 7 (or.bondi 6 for that matter) Funny, I came from altar zero drop sneakers.....discovered no good for plantar...the worse in fact
Hoka made very subtle changes too the Clifton. I think chances are it you really enjoyed the Clifton 7 you will like the 8. I hope your PF gets better. Have a great day. Stay safe.
@@RunTall - Thanks man !! Yeah it took me awhile to find the sneaker that would help my PF I had it for 2 years and this 7 helped to heal it so when I saw the 8 I was like OH NO companies always like to screw up a good thing ?! I tried the Bondi 7 First it was ok but it still bothered me so after multiple shoes and $$$ I found these !
Hi Tim. I've recently bought the 7's but they look too big on my feet so I'd be really grateful if you could recommend me some alternatives; equally or even more comfortable, cushioned and lighter, above all (if there is such a thing). I intended to use them for easy-long runs. Thank you!
Hey thanks for watching. If you like Hoka and want to stay with their brand the Hoka Rincon is a great choice as a lightweight daily trainer. The Rincon 3 was just released so you can get there Rincon 2 on sale just about everywhere. Also the Hoka Mach 4 is another good choice. The New Balance Rebel V2 is a lightweight daily trainer worth consideration. Also, the Skechers Maxroad 5 is a max cushion lightweight daily trainer you might like. Have a great day and thanks again.
@@RunTall Hi again! Thank you for your feedback. I made the right choice and I sticked with the Clifton's. They are such a fantastic shoe for slow-tempo runs! My following question might sound a little silly but I'm wondering whether shoes like the Ghost's, Glycerin's, Kinvara's etc. can be used for other activities than running and I'm referring to walking or they're specifically/strictly made for running?
That's a great question. Some running shoes are better just to run in like those that have Carbon fiber plates. But others work well for walking and running. I do like walking in the Brooks Ghost and the Glycerin 19's both of which I love to run in. Hope you are having a great weekend. Thanks for watching.
I do like the Clifton 8's. I think HOKA played it safe with their updates but I do like the changes they made. Have a great day and thanks for watching.
If you enjoy Hoka you might want to check out the Gaviota 2 or 3. They are a Max stability shoe with lots of cushion. Another good option for you to consider is the Asics Gel-Kayano Lite that also offers a lot of stability with a ton of cushion. Thanks for watching. Have a great day. Stay safe.
Ive been running in the clifton 8s running 8 miles a day and man that shoe is the best ive worn.peobably because i never owned a hoka,saucony,brooks,asics shoe. Its been nike for the last 3 years but man their shoea suck for my foot
Awesome. I'm glad you are enjoying the Clifton 8's. They are a favorite for a lot of runners. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great day and stay safe.

hey man. love your videos. Which Hoka shoes fit the widest in the midfoot and toebox? i have orthotics and need a wide shoe throughout the shoe.
I'd probably go with the wide version of the Clifton. Most Hoka shoes tend to run narrow. The Clifton 8 does feel roomier in the toe box than other Hoka models and it does come in a Wide version. Have a great weekend and stay safe my friend!!!

Hi Tim , I got a great deal on the Clifton 7 , I feel I’m rolling medial too much . What’s opinion on gaviota 3 vs saucony hurricane 22
It's always great to get a good deal on running shoes. Sorry to hear you are having some pronation issues though. The Gaviota 3 is a max cushion max stability shoe.

The Rincon 3 was just released so you can get there Rincon 2 on sale just about everywhere. Also the Hoka Mach 4 is another good choice. The New Balance Rebel V2 is a lightweight daily trainer worth consideration. Also, the Skechers Maxroad 5 is a max cushion lightweight daily trainer you might like. Have a great day and thanks again.
@@RunTall Hi again! Thank you for your feedback. I made the right choice and I sticked with the Clifton's. They are such a fantastic shoe for slow-tempo runs! My following question might sound a little silly but I'm wondering whether shoes like the Ghost's, Glycerin's, Kinvara's etc. can be used for other activities than running and I'm referring to walking or they're specifically/strictly made for running?
That's a great question. Some running shoes are better just to run in like those that have Carbon fiber plates. But others work well for walking and running. I do like walking in the Brooks Ghost and the Glycerin 19's both of which I love to run in. Hope you are having a great weekend. Thanks for watching.

I do like the Clifton 8's. I think HOKA played it safe with their updates but I do like the changes they made. Have a great day and thanks for watching.
65 year old feet. Need stability and a huge amount of cushioning. ??????
If you enjoy Hoka you might want to check out the Gaviota 2 or 3. They are a Max stability shoe with lots of cushion. Another good option for you to consider is the Asics Gel-Kayano Lite that also offers a lot of stability with a ton of cushion. Thanks for watching. Have a great day. Stay safe.
Ive been running in the clifton 8s running 8 miles a day and man that shoe is the best ive worn.peobably because i never owned a hoka,saucony,brooks,asics shoe. Its been nike for the last 3 years but man their shoea suck for my foot
Awesome. I'm glad you are enjoying the Clifton 8's. They are a favorite for a lot of runners. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great day and stay safe.
Thanks! I hope they are not as slippery as the Gaviota 3...
What do you mean by slippery? Do you mean heel slippage or lack of traction?
@@fidelbanuelos9601 I almost killed myself as I as running on wet pavement and the traction was nonexistent.
@@madfemurfast Interesting. I find the Gav 3 has better traction than the Gav 2. I'll be careful, though.
@@fidelbanuelos9601 if the 3 is better, I am not sure what happened. But super slippery. On dry days are fine.
Hey thanks for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it. I'm glad you didn't get hurt in the Gaviota 3's. Have a great day and thanks again!
