Key Features and Technology
Midsole: CMEVA Foam Cushioning

The Hoka Clifton 11 features an updated compression molded EVA (CMEVA) foam midsole, delivering a soft and responsive underfoot feel designed for everyday comfort. The lightweight cushioning absorbs impact effectively while maintaining the durability and stability needed for daily running. The increased cushioning platform provides excellent protection for longer distances while keeping the ride smooth and efficient.

Geometry: MetaRocker™ Technology

Hoka's signature MetaRocker™ geometry helps create a smooth and guided transition from heel strike through toe-off. The early-stage rocker design encourages a more efficient stride by reducing the amount of work required during each step, making the Clifton 11 an excellent choice for daily training, recovery runs, and runners looking for a smooth rolling sensation.

Upper: Engineered Knit

The updated engineered knit upper provides a soft, breathable, and adaptive fit that comfortably wraps the foot while maintaining lightweight support. The breathable construction promotes airflow to help keep feet comfortable during longer runs, while the padded heel collar and gusseted tongue enhance step-in comfort and overall security. The traditional lace system provides a reliable lockdown for everyday training.

Outsole: Durabrasion Rubber Outsole

The Clifton 11 utilizes Hoka's durable Durabrasion Rubber outsole, providing dependable traction and improved durability on roads, sidewalks, and paved surfaces. Strategic rubber placement helps protect high-wear areas while maintaining flexibility and a smooth ride. The outsole design offers the durability needed for daily mileage without adding unnecessary weight.
