Which country made HOKA?
France
Hoka One One was founded in France in 2009 by Nicolas Mermoud and Jean-Luc Diard who previously worked with outdoor brand Salomon.

Is HOKA owned by Nike?
Hoka, owned by Deckers (DECK), the company behind Ugg and Teva shoe brands, hit $892 million in sales in 2021, a 56% increase from the year prior. On Thursday, when Deckers (DECK) releases sales for 2022, the brand is expected to announce Hoka's revenue topped $1 billion.

Hoka One One shoes are some of the most popular running shoes on the market. They’re known for their plush, oversized cushioning, which sets them apart from other brands. However, with their popularity has come a rise in counterfeit Hoka shoes. So how to spot fake hoka shoes?

Why is Hoka so popular?
Why Are HOKA Sneakers So Popular?
HOKA kicks are beloved for their comfort thanks to lightweight foam soles which is especially helpful for runners thanks to the cushioning that helps slow the velocity of the foot as it hits the ground.

1. Check the Materials
One way to tell if a pair of Hoka shoes is fake is by checking the materials. Genuine Hoka shoes are made with high-quality materials, so if the materials feel cheap or look fake, likely, the shoes are too.

2. Inspect the stitching
Another way to spot fake Hoka shoes is by inspecting the stitching. If the stitching is poor quality or irregular, the shoes are fake. On the other hand, genuine Hoka shoes will have even, straight stitching that is uniform throughout the shoe.

bro, it's very visible when you showed it up close
0:35 the logos on the fake has thicker edges and the overall quality on the logo is not as distinct/wellmade compared to the original
0:51 real has thinner lines, and the glues is cleaner, you can see the excess glue on the fakes, the black lines from the sides going to the back /heel also different, not to mention the material on the heel tab
1:13 cannot really compare because your the photos on the original is very dark, but from what I can see, the material is different and the finish/details on each pattern are much more refined and distinct on the original
1:19 toecap is very thick and very fake, also excess on the glue
2:31 inside tag, the fake has thicker font on the US/UK/EU/JPN

Thought I might share this observation with you.
Clifton 9 is the FIRST shoe hoka have produced without a perforated foam lasting.
They now have a mesh Strobel.
The turquoise/ blue shoe you use to demonstrate that Clifton 9 should have a perforated foam lasting is a different shoe than the one you use for the rest of the video. Could you kindly show under the tongue of the blue shoe to demonstrate that they are in fact Clifton 9’s.
I have purchased a pair of Clifton 9’s and believe them to be a fake . They are a very good fake but something is wrong with the running gait.
I am trying to gather evidence to present to the store I purchased them from.

I just bought one yesterday and its doesn't have the ventilation hole at inner sole

[MultiGeddie]

you could have skipped everything except the inner sole and footbed - that says it all :)

[bloop]

The material on the fake looks glossy n makes me think its more slippery

[bobbylee]

Clifton 9’s don’t have a perforated footbed and you’re comparing them to a model that does

[janswaki]

is it grippy or has traction when walking or running on a smooth and wet floor for original hoka clifton 8 or 9?

[EricLovett-dbyz]

Further to my last comment could you show us under the inner sole I E the foot bed of the darker genuine Clifton 9’s. Please.

Dude just compared 2 different Hoka Clifton versions i.e. clifton 9 vs clifton 8 or clifton S. Pure misinformation😂

[pootv]

I can confidently say that there are two original models in the video, the black model is definitely original.

[josephmorales]

So far my reps are decent to use for work. I work in a hospital and these are good for less than half the price

[zaradiodkuceonline]

Dude, I don't know who you wanted to deceive with this video, yourself or others, but compare Bondi 7 as a real Clifton 9 and Clifton 9 as a fake

[D.Frasure]

Hey thanks I have a pair coming so I'll check them out.
