Sole Stats First Look: The Hoka Clifton 11

Tuesday, July 7, 2026

By: Jared Leath, CCR Sole Stats Creator

The Clifton is back with its 11th version, and Hoka’s best-selling daily trainer just got even better. If you’ve loved the Clifton line for its plush, easygoing ride, Version 11 keeps that same neutral, super-comfortable feel while polishing a few key details.

The Specs

  • Weight: 8.3 oz (women’s) / 9.9 oz (men’s)
  • Stack height: 30mm forefoot / 38mm heel (women’s); 34mm forefoot / 42mm heel (men’s)
  • Category: Neutral daily trainer with added stability elements

What’s New

Upper: Hoka reworked the mesh upper to be more ergonomic, lighter, and more breathable, while adding more overlays for improved lockdown throughout. They also widened the forefoot, so your toes finally have room to breathe.

Midsole: The ride feels lighter and softer thanks to a reshaped heel bevel, giving you a more natural transition through Hoka’s signature rocker geometry. The insole (sock liner) has also been redesigned to be lighter and softer, adding an immediate boost in comfort whether you’re walking or running.

Outsole: Unchanged from the previous version — if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Price & Availability

The Hoka Clifton 11 is $155 and hits all Charm City Run locations on July 1st.

Stop by your nearest store to try a pair on and feel the difference for yourself.
