Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 5

In general the Hoka athletic shoes are awesome. I purchased a Bondi 5 for myself and my 16 year old daughter loved them so much I got her a pair too. They are the most comfortable athletic shoe I've ever worn and when I wear a different brand now I feel a huge difference. Arch support in this model is more than average but not overwhelming.

My spouse enjoys these! Very comfortable and great for the 12 hour shifts he works.

nice thank u

nice style

coooooool n good

goooooooood

The 4th pair of Hokaoneone’s I’ve owned. These Bondi 5 are also the absolute best. I’m a former professional rugby player, 6’3 285lbs in my early 50’s who still enjoys working out everyday. I’m a big g guy that needs a shoe with maximum support and the Bondi 5 is the best I’ve ever owned. Love, love, love these shoes!

The most comfortable running shoe I’ve ever worn. I use these for inside running on treadmill. Amazing Comfort and great support. My feet usually bother me after training - didn’t happen with these shoes.

For me these shoes were life-changing. I had given up running and felt pain with every walking step because of a soft tissue deterioration in my big toe due to an injury. All that changed when I discovered Hoka which have stiff soles and a rocker motion that prevents bending in the toe joint. On top of that they are super comfortable. I bought my first pair at a running shoe store and these are my second in black so I can also wear to work. Admittedly they are a little bulky-looking (though very light-weight) and I’m certainly willing to trade a sleeker look for a pain-free stride.

I've been a loyal Asics (Cumulus, Nimbus, Kayano) runner for the last ten years. However, their revamp of the Cumulus has narrowed the toe box to the point where a 2E wasn't going to cut it for me anymore. I thought I'd try the Hoka One One due to the extensive cushioning the Bondi 5 offers as well as the great reviews this shoe has gotten. My thoughts after running in these about ten miles ... First impression: There is definitely a lot of room in these shoes. Plenty of space ... Almost felt like there was too much room until I inserted my custom insoles. Great workmanship with very good materials and I really like the design. First run: There is definitely A LOT of cushioning on this shoe. It takes some getting used to but it definitely feels supportive with a firm ride (somewhere between a Cumulus and a Nimbus). The shoe does feel a bit heavier than my Asics but I hope the cushioning and less wear-tear on my joints will make up for it. After three runs: I have definitely gotten used to the weight and feel. The longest run I've been on so far is three miles. Going to do a few more short runs to break in the shoe before I start putting long runs in. So far so good!

Good!

My 4th pair of Hoka One One. Absolutely love these shoes. Like walking on marshmallows. I’m 6’3 280lbs ex professionnel athlete and these shoes give me tremendous support for my feet and knees.
