Description:

The Clifton Pro is Hoka’s answer for runners who love the legendary comfort of the standard Clifton but crave a bit more "pop" for faster-paced training. By swapping standard foam for a new, nitrogen-infused ProGlide+™ supercritical foam, Hoka has transformed their best-selling cruiser into a more responsive, performance-oriented machine. It retains that signature Hoka cushioning, but the ride feels significantly more energetic, making it a perfect bridge between a dedicated recovery shoe and a lightweight speed trainer.

Features:
• ProGlide+™ Supercritical Foam: This is the heart of the "Pro" upgrade. The nitrogen-infusion process creates a springier, more resilient foam that offers better energy return than traditional compression-molded EVA.
• Aggressive Meta-Rocker™ Geometry: The shoe features a slightly steeper, more pronounced rocker profile than the standard Clifton, designed to roll you through your gait cycle more efficiently when you pick up the pace.
• Podular Outsole Design: Strategically placed Durabrasion rubber in high-wear zones provides reliable traction and long-term durability without adding unnecessary weight to the platform.
• High-Stack Protection: With a massive 42mm/34mm stack height (men’s), it provides extreme impact protection, keeping legs fresh over marathon-distance training blocks.
• Stability-Focused Platform: Despite the high stack, the wide base and sidewall geometry provide inherent stability that feels grounded and safe on uneven pavement.
• Best For: Everyday training, long runs, and "uptempo" steady-state workouts.
• The Vibe: Energetic, smooth-rolling, and undeniably premium.
• Specs: Weighs 10.4 oz (295g) for men / 8.5 oz (241g) for women, with an 8mm drop.
