Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 6

Love the Bondi for my ailing feet but they are so noisy. They squeak with every step and are distracting to me and everyone I live and work with. My coworker has the same problem with her Bondi 6.

I have been wearing HOKA for 3 years now. I am on my 4th pair. The last few times i have purchased i have had a more difficult time getting the sizing correct yet my shoe size has not changed. It seems as though the high quality is starting to change ever so slightly. I also noticed the structure seems to be changing, not as durable, returned one pair after only a few months because the tread was actually pealing off the bottom. I am wearing BONDI 6 now, 2nd pair, unfortunately the cushion that originally got me hooked on this shoe also seems to be a bit less. Something has changed but so far they are still the better choice. I just hope they do not change too too much more in the coming year as its still a very good shoe.

I was referred to Fleet Feet by my podiatrist, and I explained to the salesman at the store that I had feet that were hard to fit due to 3 toes on each foot affected by severe bunions. When I tried the shoes on at the store (Fleet Feet of Springfield, MO), I was impressed that my feet felt so comfortable. After wearing the shoes for about 20 minutes, I thought I'd found a hidden treasure. When I learned that I could order online and use my PayPal credit card to pay for the shoes, I was delighted. I found them online, ordered them and received them earlier than I was led to expect. I wore them inside my home for approximately an hour, when the pain I usually feel from shoes reared its ugly head. I returned the shoes to Fleet Feet, as I'd been unable to print a return label from your website. I'm still waiting for notification that the return has been received by Hoka, and that a refund has been issued to my PayPal account. I'm certain these shoes are great for most people, and I highly recommend the staff at Fleet Feet, esp. Keeton, but the shoes didn't work for me beyond the initial try-on. My next step will be to obtain orthotics, as my podiatrist didn't recommend surgery for my problem.

This is my 4th pair of Bondi shoes, and this is the first time I am not thoroughly delighted. The shoes are not as comfortable or cushiony as they have always been in the past. With my other 3 pairs I thought I was walking on a cloud. Not so this time. Since I am on my feet for 12 hour shifts, I am very disappointed. I will most likely return them. Did you change the way you make them?

Purchased Bondi 6 after wearing the Clifton for about 5 months. The last on Clifton was very narrow as M so I ordered Wide in the Biondi. Too wide and a bit sloppy. I am not a runner I am using these to relieve heel issue

Long time Hoka customer. Endurance athlete for fifteen years and my knees need the soft, light, cushion of a Hoka. The soles are the right height, but they are stiff and have very little give. My feet literally hurt after my run. Please, bring back and keep the Bondi B in stock. That's are a poor substitute.

The mesh wears out very easily, hole by my toe and side with light use for a few months.

I'm not impressed. I can only wear them a couple hours a day and have to take them. I did walk 30 minutes on the bike trail without any problem. I'm giving them a few more trials before I make a decision to return them. Love the colors (blue/grey). They just not be the shoe for me.

the shoe has great cushion and support but would rub a hot spot on my right arch anytime I ran in them

Unfortunately I did not find them super "cushy or plush". I would have return them but it's too much hassle for me. I would not purchase this brand again.
