HOKA Clifton Women’s D Wide Running Shoes
The HOKA Clifton 10 Women’s D Wide is a cushioned road running shoe built for daily training and walking, with extra width through the forefoot and midfoot. It suits runners who need more room without sacrificing the smooth, protective ride the Clifton range is known for. Designed for pavement, footpaths and treadmill use, it is a reliable neutral option for New Zealand conditions.
This is the wide fit version of the Clifton 10. You get the same lightweight cushioning and updated geometry, just with more space where many women need it.
Extra Room, Same Clifton Ride
The D Wide fit provides additional width across the forefoot and midfoot. That helps reduce pressure on the toes and sides of the foot, especially during longer runs when feet naturally swell.
The Clifton 10 includes an additional 3 mm in heel to toe drop compared to the previous version. For runners who land through the heel, this creates a smoother transition from contact to toe off.
The CMEVA midsole delivers soft, consistent cushioning for daily kilometres on hard NZ roads. It absorbs impact well, which is important if you are building weekly mileage or mixing running with long walks.
Stable Without Being Heavy
The Smooth MetaRocker helps roll you through your stride, reducing flat feeling transitions on tired legs. The rearfoot focused Active Foot Frame cradles the heel for subtle guidance without adding traditional stability posting.
Up top, the breathable jacquard knit upper offers structure and airflow. A double lace lock helps reduce tongue movement, so you are not stopping mid run to readjust.
Reflective upper details improve visibility during early morning or evening sessions.
