Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 6

These shoes are phenomenal for a diabetic. The extra cushion allows me be able to stand and be on my feet all day with little pain in my feet and back. I actually didn't notice it until I looked at my watch and realized I had been walking for over 2hours.i had been listening to an audio book. Normally after an hour or so my back, knees and feet start to make themselves known. My only complaint is that they are a tad narrow even though I ordered a wide width. But I have extremely wide feet (4e). Not the fault of the shoe quality. Most shoes are too narrow so I usually purchase New Balance but one of my students that runs on the cross country team reccomended them. He has wide feet also. These are great shoes though. I just have go sockless. I would recommend using Thai Crystal Deodorant Mist on your feet and in your shoes before running or walking. It's a salt solution that inhibits bacterial growth.

Plenty of cushion, as advertised.

Hike Garden of the Gods or Red Rocks open Space 4-8 miles q day. I liked the Bondi 6 but found I was slipping and getting small rocks in shoe. Now after 200 miles walking in then the right foot heel slides left and feels like I am walking on the base edge. I am having to stop and adjust fit more frequently.

Good, getting a calous on my right instep heal, no other issues. They run big, as I normally wear a 10.5 size shoe, and I purchased a Hoka One Biondi 10.5 and they are slightly too big.

Very comfortable and lightweight. I bought the Bondi 6. I wish they made them just slightly wider, but they are very comfortable. The only thing I would suggest is to lengthen the shoelaces a few inches.

Run in them frequently.

I wear wides to accommodate orthotics. The Bondi 6 11.5W fits well.

Most comfortable running shoe I've ever owned.

style and color choices for wide shoes are pretty limited - this is the biggest area of opportunity. Who says wide feet can't look cool?

A light and responsive daily trainer with a roomy toe box makes this a great shoe for a runner looking for a "go to" shoe. The lightness of this shoe also makes this a great crossover racer for somneone looking for a more substantial racing shoe.

Has a lot of cushioning but is a little unstable

In wide fit, and I ordered my regular number (11). However, the shoes comes a little tight for me. I tried running with this and I got a blister in the middle of my foot. So I had to got back to my Cliftons 6. Not sure if it the shoes or it is the fact my Clifton are half of the point larger...

I'm on my second pair of Bondi 6s. They feel great when I put them on. And as.a teacher who is on my feet virtually all day, they really help with cushioning on the concrete school floors. For walking or running, roads or treadmill, they are awesome for cushioning as well. The downside is weight: By the end of the school day, I am really feeling the fatigue of an 11 oz shoe. I often can't wait to slip out of them and into something lighter. They are a great shoe over time. While I had small holes in the top after 1 1/2 years with my old pair, they actually felt more comfortable with age.

I love the Cliftons because they have a lot of cushions yet are fairly light. They are very comfortable and due to the way they are constructed, dry out quickly when running in wet (or sweaty) conditions. Additionally, they last longer than other brands so I get more miles out of them before I have to replace them. Well worth the money. Only downside - I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY wish they came in narrow width.

Super comfortable, color selection not great. Fits about a half size lager than my speedgoats.

I go on long hikes (10-20 miles) and appreciate the extra cushion the Bondi gives me as I walk on uneven surfaces. It's also pretty good on wet surfaces but slides on steeper slopes. My left foot (which is a different size than the right) gets heel/toe blisters where the insole meets the inside walls of the shoe. I'm hoping tape in those areas to resolve that.

Walking only.

When I find a comfortable performing shoe, I always buy a second pair from fear of them being discontinued and not being able to buy another when needed. I wear these shoes for work which entails a lot of walking on hard surfaces, up stairs, etc. Hands down the best shoe I have worn in my lifetime! The only reason why I didn't go 5 stars was reading reviews of the uppers of these shoes giving way. Will see how these stand up to time.

I ordered the Bomdi 6 model online assuming the exact same size from my Bondi 4 (10.5 2E wide) would be exact or close to, what the Bondi 6, 10.5 2E wide, would fit for me. I will keep and use my Bondi 6 for walking and casual use purposes and keep the differences in size next time I consider ordering a Hoka.

Own 6 pair of Hoka's and they are my favorite shoe

Extremely confortable, 2md pair. This pair seems to have a tighter for box, for some reason the right one is hurting After about 6 hours of wearing them. Overall a great shoe.
