HOKA is expanding its footwear lineup with new releases targeting different consumer segments. In the United States, the Big Kids Clifton 10 has emerged as a popular back-to-school option for 2026. Designed for both running and daily school activities, the shoe features a breathable jacquard upper, cushioned midsole, and a reinforced toe cap.
In Japan, HOKA is launching the Clifton UTL through the retailer atmos on September 4, 2026.
