HOKA and MARNI have made a second shoe together, and this time it’s the Clifton, the daily trainer that has anchored HOKA’s cushioned running line since 2014. The Clifton MARNI takes the brand’s newest version, the Clifton 11, and dresses it in bright orange, black-on-black, and off-white. All three are meant for everyday wear as much as running.
The pairing began last year with the Bondi B3LS, a max-cushioned runner that MARNI then-creative director Francesco Risso rebuilt in puffy quilted uppers and described as “clouds of color.” This year’s round comes from a different design chapter. Meryll Rogge took over as MARNI’s creative director in July 2025, following Risso, and Senior Director of Global Collaborations & Partnerships at HOKA Thomas Cykana credits Rogge with moving the brand forward while keeping its signature cues.
“We adore MARNI’s whimsical and irreverent stance within the contemporary luxury landscape and appreciate the sophisticated way in which Meryll has pushed the brand forward while leaning into the label’s most signature cues,” says Cykana. “Together, we explore a world where the marathon of life is celebrated in a way that only HOKA and MARNI can.”
The shoe itself stays close to the Clifton’s standard shape. It has an engineered mesh upper and a compression-molded EVA midsole, along with HOKA’s MetaRocker for a smooth heel-to-toe roll and the rearfoot-focused Active Foot Frame. MARNI’s changes sit in the details. The orange pair has a silver-grey midsole and a black-and-white woven heel collar, while the black pair is tonal throughout, with a cream heel pull and red MARNI lettering. The white pair is a pale cream with red lettering and a red-and-white plaid sockliner. Every colorway has spaced MARNI lettering on the heel, a metal lace tag, reflective touches and a 3D silicone print, and each comes with two extra pairs of laces.
The campaign is called “Every Day Is a Marathon,” and the photos stick to that idea by shooting the shoes outside of any running context. In the images, the orange pair turns up mowing a lawn with a toddler on one hip, waiting in a hair salon, standing outside a school and walking a dog in a driveway. HOKA says the campaign is meant to celebrate the movement that fills ordinary days, from early starts to offices, studios and city streets.
