HOKA launches Clifton 11 running shoe with upgraded comfort features

HOKA has released the Clifton 11, the eleventh generation of its best‑selling daily‑training running shoe. The new model keeps the brand’s hallmark cushioning while adding a fully redesigned upper made from Engineered Mesh for better breathability and a more precise fit. Other updates include an open‑cell sockliner, 3D‑printed reinforcements, reflective details and a double‑lace lock system.

Technical specifications retain the CMEVA midsole, Smooth MetaRocker geometry and Active Foot Frame in the heel, delivering a fluid transition and natural stability. The outsole uses abrasion‑resistant rubber for durability. Weight is listed at 283 g for men and 236 g for women, with an 8 mm drop and heel heights of 42 mm (men) and 38 mm (women). The shoe is priced at €160 and is available worldwide.

The launch is accompanied by the international campaign “Look What Smooth Can Do,” which promotes the smooth‑running experience the Clifton 11 is designed to deliver.
