HOKA Men's Clifton 9 Wide Running Shoes: product description
The HOKA Clifton 9 Men's Wide variant brings an expanded fit to the well-regarded Clifton line, offering a solution for runners with wider feet seeking both comfort and performance. This edition maintains the core features of the standard Clifton 9 model while providing a more accommodating toe box and overall fit.
Retaining the high-stack design characteristic of its predecessor, the HOKA Clifton 9 Wide Men's provides substantial cushioning. The absence of supercritical foams results in a ride that is smooth yet slightly firmer, offering a balance between plushness and stability. This denser cushioning system, coupled with a broadened footbed, ensures that the runner experiences a centered and comfortable stride throughout their run.
The Men's HOKA Clifton 9 Wide features elements that enhance its stability. The shoe offers gentle sidewalls and an even wider base than the standard model, ensuring a secure footing. The inclusion of a gentle rocker aids in promoting a fluid forward motion, suitable for those seeking minimal support in a cushioned package.
With the breathable upper of the HOKA Men's Clifton 9 Wide, the temperature regulation remains optimal, keeping feet cool during runs. The construction includes ample padding around the heel and ankle, alongside a recessed heel cup, which together provide excellent retention without compromising comfort. This design ensures a snug fit that accommodates wider feet without causing constriction or discomfort.
The firmer foam and rocker geometry of the HOKA Clifton 9 Mens Wide offer a level of responsiveness that is adequate for most training runs. For those whose runs do not regularly exceed the marathon pace, this model provides a satisfactory balance between cushioning and energy return.
The shoe comes in many color options, and Run United is happy to present them all. On this page, you can find models with more traditional color schemes like the HOKA Men's Clifton 9 Wide Black as well as more exotic versions like the HOKA Men's Clifton 9 Wide Ice Water/Evening Primrose and Nimbus Cloud/Steel Wool.

Product Reviews
-
Quick and Comfortable
Wearing Clifton 9 Wide makes running feel absolutely different. They are lightweight, and roomy, and supportive and generally awesome.

A Great Finding
I transitioned to the Clifton 9 Wide after hearing praises from my marathoner friends. You see all sorts of shoes at those events, and everybody claims theirs to be the best of the best. But I trust my guys and decided to give it a go. And didn't regret it. It's not as hard to find shoes for wide feet these days as it used to be, but there's always the risk of them not fitting. These shoes, however, accommodate my feet perfectly. Beyond the promised comfort, cushioning and support, what impressed me was the shoe's incredible breathability. I’ve noticed that the material on the upper attracts dust and dirt more than I’d like, but I guess I'll just have to clean them more often. All in all, great shoes.

Both Function and Looks
For me, looks are as important as functionality. It's not the most practical attitude, but I can't help but feel different when I know the shoes look great on me. It's also easy to forget the level of technology packed into each pair. I sometimes put them on for casual outings too. If there's one thing to note, it would be wishing for a bit more variety in color options to match different personal styles. The collection isn't scarce but still has room for growth.
