It's not really meant for the general public; it's meant to comply with World Athletics rules so that Adi's pro runners can use it.

That's my point--it has to go on sale to the public to be legal under WA rules once you're beyond the 12-month prototype window. That's probably why they're doing a limited retail run (according to BiTR, 521 numbered pairs total).

For the elite athletes who get the shoes for free!

Does anyone have the Hoka Clifton 9? Looking at the GTX model for the wet weather we have here in the UK.
I go up 0.5 for the mach 4/5, same for the Cliftons?

First pair of Mizunos I’ve ever owned

First pair of Mizunos I’ve ever owned

how do they fit? Are they comfortable? They look like sleepers so many good CW's

 

[soleaddict33]

They fit long, but pretty comfortable. The upper is very lightweight with no real padding in the tongue or around the heel collar. There’s not much structure to most of the shoe. The metallic overlays are very thin too. This makes them feel “flimsy”, but not cheap necessarily. The under foot feel has decent cushioning, but don’t feel mushy.

Went with Ascis and New Balance this year. I may not go back to Nike for awhile...

Or thousands of people will flock to get a pair only to be utterly disappointed by “Out of Stock.”

What are y’all wearing to knock out the easy long miles?

Looking for a neutral shoe - coming from the Invincibles which I had no problem with. Wide footer so have some Clifton 9s on the way (first Hokas).
