I ordered these shoes based on a recommendation. Unfortunately, I had to return them...I felt very unstable in these wide shoes. I don't know if it matters that I wear a size 10, but they just weren't comfortable for me.

Love the shoe but after only 5 months it is starting to get a hole in the fabric over the toe of one shoe!!! Is there a warranty on these shoes?

I bought Bondi 6 a week ago because they had better reviews than Bondy 7. When I wore them for the first time I was amazed at the cushioning but after my 5 miles cardio workout the inside of my heels were blistered and I get a new one after every time that I wear them. I don't know what is causing them, could be the unfinished lining of the shoe, don't know. This has never happened with my Air Max.

These just don’t work for me. I was told to go down a half size from my brooks so I tried a 9M. They felt good at first, but after wearing 3 times I knew they were too small. I tried a 9.5 M and the arch was in the wrong spot and my feet were numb after wearing for 30 min. I tried a 9W and they were 2 inches too long and just huge across the top of foot.

I'll keep these and I will use them for very light activity and walking. They are not truly a wide and whatever you've done to the foam it now comes up and restricts The natural splay of my foot.

Not a cute shoe on your foot and not sturdy. I’m someone who needs support for my long shifts and this did not deliver.

Was so, so hoping the negative reviews of it being more narrow, than past Bondi's were just a fluke for those customers. Not so. Much more narrow all the way around, even in a wide, and half a size bigger. I told everyone I knew about the HOKA Bondi, and even had several friends switch over. Can't recommend this shoe anymore. So disappointing. Looks like I may be switching to a new brand, as these no longer fit my foot. Please tell me there is hope in bringing back the old design.

So disappointed because I have bought other hokas and they are wonderful, but these leave my feet hurting. I bought a black pair and they felt great, so I decided to keep those for events for my job and bought these for day to day, but I can barely stand then for an hour. So frustrated because they are not cheap shoes.

I had purchased a pair of bondi 6 a couple months ago for work. Because of covid19 I have not been at work since March. I have only wore these shoes less than about 6-10 times. Already the rubber sole is tearing up in one sole. I have only wore them around the house, no running or extreme use. Very disappointed in the quality for the price I paid

A bit disappointed in the durability of these shoes. An inch-wide slit formed in the internal fabric at the top of the heel seat of the right shoe at about 4 months. The same type of slit formed in the left shoe shortly thereafter. A bit of a surprise because I'd worn Hoka One shoes for years. And usually, even after I stop wearing the shoes for my distance walking due to tread wear, I continue to wear them for gardening or other chores. Due to the tears in the tears, I doubt I'll be able to continue wearing the shoes.
Sadly, now I must reconsider a future purchase of the brand due to this durability issue.
Regardless, for $160 I expect better durability.

The shoes caused me to have plantar fasciitis. The insoles are so thin, no arch support and no heal cushion. I have had them for over a month now and wear them on a daily basis. I do house cleaning, so I'm on my feet for hours. The outer soles have a good cushion but I need to actually have cushioning on the inside for my feet. Would not buy this brand again especially for the price I paid.

I love Hokas but this style was too wide in the heel. After wearing them for a week to exercise, I started forming a blister on the inside of the heel. I didn't feel the typical cushion I'm used to in a Hoka.

I ordered a nine wide due to numerous foot problems on my left foot; by the time Insoles are added, I wear World's softest socks footies there isn't much room left. I really wanted to love these shoes. I have owned several pairs of Hokas. These did hold promise, but not if your foot hurts as much as mine does, which is constantly. If your foot hurts on the top- SKIP this SHOE! If your heel hurts or you have plantar fasciitis, FORGET IT! I need a HOKA person to come personally fit me, I'm not kidding! I have been married to a foot doctor for over 30 years, and for him, it's been pure hell.
Sadly, I can no longer return these shoes, as I have worn them. I could just cry.

Super disappointed with this shoe. I have plantar fasciitis and shin splints and had heard this shoe was great for those issues. I initially bought the 8.5 but they seemed too big and there was a painful spot in the left foot upper arch area. I then purchased the 8, and it caused the exact same sore spot. I tried to work through it, but ended up with a painful blister on my left foot, upper arch area. And then got a blister on the inner side of my right big toe. Had to return the shoe because they were just to painful to wear.

Sorry to say, the HOKA Bondi didn’t work for my foot. I need more cushion in the ball of my foot! Also, my heel kept slipping, even after I laced properly for that. When I did that, the laces hurt my ankle. Wished they had worked for me-my daughter loves them! They have been sent back via UPS.

I ordered these after my husband got a pair and absolutely loves them. Unfortunately for me, they were way too big and the arch felt like it was in the wrong spot. These shoes run at least a full size bigger than my other sneakers. I have returned them.

These shoes were recommended by a sales clerk at Fleet Feet in Memphis. They are made for under pronators. I am an over pronation. I wanted them for my 10 hour work shift, I can only wear them about 3 hours before my hips and back start hurting. I plan to sell them. It would be helpful if you put info on the site about pronation.

While I think the Hoka One style is great for some people, it was absolutely not the right show for my foot. That said, it also did not fit my foot well. I tried two different sizes, after returning the first. Both sizes were "off" for my foot. Too bad, because in many ways the shoe seems well thought-out. My husband bought one and his look and feel great for him.

The first pair of Hoka i brought felt like i was walking on a cloud. I went to fleet feet did 3D scan and these were suggested. I loved them. These are hard and are hurting my feet, definitely not soft or comfortable. Once in store shopping opens back up i will be looking for another brand of shoe.

I have been hearing so much about Hoka shoes for running but after trying two different styles of Hoka I realize they are not for me. This pair left my toes numb after my run - I’ve never had that happen before but something about the shoe is off for me. Very well cushioned though.

They are really huge on my feet. Comfortable walking, but feel like I am wearing someone else's shoes:( I cannot return them as my husband threw away the manufacturer's package they came in.

I really wanted to like these shoes because of the great reviews and I liked the style of the shoe. However, these are not for me. I felt like I was running on stilts and my feet were rolling all over the place. I nearly fell a couple times. I truly didn't feel stable at all. Everyone is different, so try and see if you like them, but I'm going to stick to my old brooks.

I really wanted these shoes to work because I had read so many good reviews about them and wanted a change from the New Balance sneakers I usually buy but while they were good for the arthritis in my big toe they made my neuroma hurt so sadly, I had to send them back. They run a half size larger than the New Balance shoes I usually buy.
