Customers Say

Customers find these running shoes comfortable, with one describing them as feeling like walking on marshmallows, and appreciate their excellent support, with one noting they've lasted 40 years of running and walking. They are lightweight and great for everyday runs and treadmill walking, with positive feedback about their colors. The fit and stability receive mixed reviews - while some find the overall fit great and stable, others mention the midfoot is narrow and report stability issues. Durability is also mixed, with some saying they're built to last while others note the outer sole wears out too quickly.

So far, so good. 200lb runner, 30 miles a week, sub 22 5k. I have a pair of Nike carbon fiber race shoes, and I liked the idea of a carbon fiber shoe for longer/harder training runs, not just racing. The skyward is a great combo of cushioning and responsiveness, and so far, it's exactly what I'd hoped for. It leaves my feet feeling a little less battered after harder runs, and I think it will turn out to be a good injury-prevention shoe. It could be a little more stable, but all in all, I think Hoka nailed it. It's a bigger toebox than the Bondi (I take a 13w in Bondi), and the overall fit is just a little larger and more comfortable, more like the old Hokas. It seems light enough to race in, but I haven't tried that yet. Planning on getting another pair.

I am 71 years old and a runner who started late in life. I have been wearing Bondi's for years but nothing as great as the Skyward X. These are by far the most comfortable running shoes yet. What can I say. I'll leave you with...I honestly feel like I can fly!!! Love these!!

I'm 6'5" around 245 and I've been running in Clifton 9's most recently up to 10 miles at a go. These shoes are amazingly comfortable over the Clifton's for me and I won't be switching to something else probably ever. These shoes also somehow decreased my average mile pace by a minute so that's great too.

As a longtime fan of the Bondi line, I was excited to try these. With even more support, I expected even more comfort. Unfortunately for me, the added cushion resulted in less stability in my ankles. I could myself actively trying to maintain a proper step. I also found the size of the shoe to cause a greater chance of getting caught on uneven pavement, etc. Planning to send mine back.
