Our Verdict
HOKA Clifton 9
Nike Invincible 3
The Nike Invincible 3 and the HOKA Clifton 9 are both popular daily trainers with a similar level of stiffness and stability, though the HOKA has a slight edge in stability. The HOKA is also lighter, making it feel a bit more effortless over longer distances. However, the Nike is a more premium daily trainer due to its bouncy ZoomX foam resulting in a plusher ride that feels more responsive underfoot. This added bounce makes the Nike more versatile, allowing it to handle some strides more easily. In contrast, the HOKA leans more toward consistent daily mileage with a balanced, reliable feel.
