Clifton 10

He's right, maybe not exactly a Triumph or Glideride Max, but a nice daily trainer is a good start. Ride 18, Novablast 5, Clifton 10, 880 v15, 1080 v14 Gel Cumulus 27. Make sure the fit is also right for your foot.

I personally run in Hokas. I use the Bondi 9s. I need the cushioning it seems. However the Bondi 9s are a pretty expensive running shoe so I usually suggest the Clifton 10s because they can pretty much do it all. With this being said every runner is different in what they like or need so would recommend trying these shoes in a running shoe store to see which shoe you like the best

I don’t know, i have the Clifton 10 and love them run Wise but after 300km, the have worn off pretty well. I have saucony’s as well and they have not worn off at all despite having 500km on them Wondering whether it is a batch thing or something else

I’ve found that the extra “lip” on the back of the heel, which is meant to protect the Achilles, actually very much bothers my Achilles. It did not improve or get better. I eventually went to the store and picked up the first pair of Hokas that didn’t have it and landed in the Bondi 7 which I’ve stuck with until now (Bondi 10). Achilles not happy so I’m now in Altras 🤷🏻‍♀️ All of which is to say, trust your gut.

Depends on what shoe you rock. My Hoka Clifton 10s are much wider than my Asics NB4s. Anyway, to OP: Try strengthening AND mobilize your hip in every position so that your hip pulls itself into the straight position with your toes pointing forward. Then you will put your feet on the ground more stable and more "guided"

I used to be a sprinter (60m,100m,200m 12-13 years ago) and now i'm looking to get into long distance running. so I am looking for some advice before I pull the trigger: I did a foot scan at a store in Toronto + in-store fitting and I’m deciding between: * ASICS Gel Nimbus 28 (9.5D vs 9.5 2E) * HOKA Clifton 10 (9.5D) Leaning toward the Nimbus, but unsure on width. **Measurements:** * Scan (with socks): \~US 9–9.1 E * Width: \~105–106 mm (borderline wide) * Arch: neutral * Brannock (no socks): 8.5 Store recommended going up for running: * Suggested size: **9.5** * They said to base it more on the scan (with socks + weight) vs Brannock since you’re not running barefoot — curious if that’s generally accurate? Full scan results here: [https://my.volumental.com/en/customer\_rulebook/4aac49da-0b86-4ae3-8f50-9b59df227e05/?utm\_medium=myvemail](https://my.volumental.com/en/customer_rulebook/4aac49da-0b86-4ae3-8f50-9b59df227e05/?utm_medium=myvemail) It includes: * 3D foot model (top + side views) * Pressure distribution / heat map * Detailed length + width measurements **Main issue:** A lot of shoes gave me noticeable **arch pressure** (even just standing or light jogging in-store), so I ruled those out pretty quickly. The only ones that didn’t give me that issue: * Nimbus 28 * Clifton 10 **Shoes I tried:** * HOKA Clifton 10 → great, very natural, no arch pressure * HOKA Bondi 9 → noticeable arch pressure * ASICS Gel Nimbus 28 → very comfortable, no arch pressure * New Balance 880 → arch pressure * New Balance 1080 v15 → slight arch pressure * New Balance Ellipse v1 → didn’t feel as natural overall * Nike Vomero → comfortable but a bit narrow/snug **Nimbus fit:** * 9.5D → feels spot on, secure, no pressure anywhere * 9.5 2E → also comfortable, but more volume above toes and slightly less locked in **Use case:** * Getting back into running (starting 5–10km, building up to start then eventually work up to half / full marathon but for now 5-10k) * Some walking / casual use * Former sprinter years ago, but now focused on general running/fitness **Questions:** * Would you go: * Nimbus 28 9.5D * Nimbus 28 9.5 2E * Or Clifton 10 9.5D * For someone borderline wide (E), is it better to go wide preemptively, or stick with regular if it already feels good? * And is it valid to prioritize the scan (with socks + standing) over the Brannock measurement? * Also is the size 9.5 the right choice here? I'm used to more form fitting shoes being an ex sprinter with spikes, so let me know based on the scan results / physical metal measurer i mentioned above. Also open to any other recommendations based on this (neutral arch, slightly wide, sensitive to arch pressure). Thanks!

Honestly the Nimbus 28 regular felt good to me, but my main concern is the width. Standard size (D) = 99-103mm (right?) and based on my scan my width is 105-106mm which is at the top of E/bottom of 2E. But i liked the feel of the Regular even though it's smaller but the store said it fit right with enough room around the toe box. Keep in mind my feet measured 9e/9.1e for my left and right and i already sized up to 9.5 so i think that's why the regular fits fine so not sure if i need to go with the wide version. So i'm not sure which to go with and why to choose one over the other?

Flat feet here. What I've learned is that the fit is everything. I love brooks. Had some great brooks before. My wife has brooks. But hokas fit me better so I run in Hokas. Cliftons 10 are soft, but not too soft. I like them a lot for my easy miles. Mach 6 are firmer. I like them a lot too and use them for my speed work. Try the shoes in the store, you may be suporized.

Hoka bondi - very soft, too soft for me, Hoka clifton - soft, harder than bondi - mu daily choice.
