Sup LR! I've got ~ 360 miles or so on my Hoka Bondi B 4 which I really love and I'm getting a new pair to start into the rotation for a fall marathon. I want to try the Clayton but don't know much about them or where I can try them on around the area I live in. So I'm looking for help comparing the two - does anyone have any experience with the Clayton and the Bondi B and which one they think is better? I've tried the original conquest a long time ago and I thought they were to stiff for me. I'm 6'4/~220lbs

Thanks!

No, no Sketchers - just Bondi v. Clayton

One is crap.

The other is crap.

Where and what did Hoka get Manzano?

Home and DEVASTATED!

What distinguishes one crap from the other crap? I'd still appreciate a true answer. The troll answers are funny but help me out if you can.

Bondi - Max Cusion. Higher Stack Height. Good for recovery runs or if your legs are beat up. Traditional mesh upper. Price point is 150.

Clayton - "Stability" from Hoka. So not a true medial post, just raised foam on the medial side. Full RMAT rubber on the bottom aids in durability. More flexible and lightweight of the two. Will feel quicker. Thinner more performance like upper. Price point is 150.

I am a Bondi/Clifton guy.

I have not yet tried the Clayton, but I think your question is really a comparison of the Clifton vs. Clayton.

The Bondi is the heavier cushioned trainer. The Clifton is a lighter trainer/racer. The Clayton is reportedly even lighter with a firmer forefoot for better toe off.

Which one is closer to the Huaka?

Clayton is more like Huaka with a firmer midsole than Clifton.

There are only two types of runners in the world.

1. Those who wear Hokas

2. Those who will soon switch to Hokas

See you in a little bit.
