Without a doubt the best running shoes I've ever owned, so comfortable and cushiony, I'll never buy any other sneaker again, telling all my friends

I am a teacher's assistant so I am always on my feet. I feel like I am walking on clouds
I will also add that I hurt my left foot about a year ago and these shoes are awesome!

OMG! I’m so happy to have found this wonderful shoe! It actually is the size it says...i.e., I never know if I’m going to have to size up or down...these are perfect and I feel like I’m walking on a cloud. Yes, they’re a bit pricey but after my long search, well worth the $

I am a former runner, aged 64. I first bought Bondi 4 on advice of my podiatrist. My feet are just weird--different by a full size or more; off-the-chart high arches; very narrow heel and wide forefoot; chronic plantar fasciitis; achilles tendinitis. I love running but I was eventually spending more time in physical therapy than actually running, and more money on shoes, therapy and custom orthotics than on food. This is my 7th pair of Bondi shoes--the others were all Bondi 4--and in my experience the Bondi 6 is a worthy successor. I don't know how Hoka One One do it but their shoes offer nothing less than pure bliss for these poor feet. My work keeps me standing and moving around all day, and I can now pull a 10- to 12-hour day without so much as a whimper from my feet. I have such high arches that I wear arch-support inserts in all my Bondi shoes, and that combination is perfect for me.

After being diagnosed and treated for back pain I couldn't find a shoe that allowed me to exercise and walk without back pain and neuropathy, The cushion in the Bondi 6 has made a huge difference in my gym exercise and walking workouts. The local running store recommended them and I just both got my second replacement pair!

I have Plantar Fasciitis and these shoes were recommended by my podiatrist. However, I did encounter a problem with my first pair I purchased. The inside sole is made of memory foam type materials and my left shoe developed a hole on the inside sole under my left foot. I do not know if this was a true defect or the way I walked, but I only had them for 4 months when this happened, but, I did wear them daily and I go to the gym 5 days a week anywhere from an hour and a half to two hours. However, this shoe is an extremely comfortable shoe that helped me tremendously with my feet problems, I also have flat feet in addition to the Plantar Fasciitis. These shoes have a great guarantee so when I sent them in for evaluation I had to wear other shoes and I could immediately tell a difference in my feet, the pain was back every morning when I woke up. So all in all, I would recommend this shoe to someone with foot problems or who has to be on their feet for long periods of time.

I recently developed Plantar Facilitis and I do a lot of walking so this was very disappointing and debilitating and really needed comfortable footwear to get around without pain or causing more damage to my foot. My Podiatrist recommended the Bondi 6, and so glad I took her advice! From the first day I put them on I was hooked! I was not only able to get to and from work everyday, but also run errands on the weekends in them. I've been wearing my Bondi 6 sneakers for 8 weeks now and I love them so much, I bought a 2nd pair (soon to buy another). My foot is healing nicely, free of any pain or discomfort. I don't plan on buying sneakers from anywhere else, ever! Hoka one has a customer in me for life! :)

The ache of plantar fasciitis is never far enough away, and an osteoarthritic big toe has nearly sidelined any normal walking activity. These shoes are clouds from heaven. The springiness in the footbed is so comforting, and the toe box is wide yet supportive, so I'm able to walk pain-free on the treadmill for more than 30 minutes. In my Mizunos prior to this, I couldn't even log five minutes. True, the Hoka One One style is a bit clownish and "puffier" than shoes I would traditionally gravitate towards, but honestly, I don't care what they look like with comfort this great. I'm totally sold.

I ordered both a 9 and 9.5; the 9 fit was the better fit, but my heel slipped and the toe box was much too narrow for me; the 9.5 was too big. I like the style and do not consider it ugly at all. Ret'd both sizes and ordered a 9 Wide and the toe box was still too narrow.

Total comfort all the way around. Entire sole of foot is very cushioned. Plenty of room in toe bed. I work in a large hospital and need comfortable shoes and these are the bomb!! They feel so good - I hate to take them off when I get home. I now recommend these to all my coworkers. My husband bought 2 pair and loves them. I will also be purchasing another pair!

I wear these all the time. the cushioning is important because I have a badly damaged foot. This is the only shoe I can tolerate right now with bone spurs and lots of scar tissue.

Although I never felt that I would purchase sneakers at this price point, I finally gave in as my Asics, Brooks, New Balance all left me feeling aches, pains and eventually not much cushioning. While I am still new to Hoka, the Bondi 6, seems to be perfect for my needs. Wearing them to run, I feel no jarring or pain...its all cushion! So far..very pleased.
I do wish they looked a bit less orthopedic, however, I will take them how they are for the comfort I feel!

Ok I am a nurse and these shoes are nothing short of amazing!!! A coworker told me about them and I hesitated due to price, but they are well worth it. They feel like you are walking (or running) on marshmallows. I can see why they are so popular with nurses. I like them so much, I wear them on my days off. Worth the money!

I am obsessed with these shoes. They are like walking on a hug if that makes any sense. I have bunions but otherwise normal width feet, and the 8W was the perfect size and width. I am not a runner, I got these for dog walking. I have lower back pain so was looking for something with a lot of cushion and stability. I found there were not many sizes and colors left so I really hope that Hoka keeps making these.

I usually wear a 6.5 M in most shoes. That is what I ordered and it fit perfectly. My sister wears the trail runner shoes in this brand and swears by them. I only exercise indoors or walk/jog on streets and the Bondi 6 is the most plush and cushioned shoe I have ever worn. My knee which had been hurting did not hurt at all when I worked out. So very comfortable—highly recommend. Now I’m trying to talk my husband into getting the men’s version of this great sneaker.

I like these sneakers a lot, but I need a wider toe box. Love the color and the style--I cannot understand why people think these are ugly! Very cool style.

I am a nurse practitioner who is constantly on her feet. Roughly 19 years ago I was in a horrific car accident and ended up having back surgery. Prior to the surgery the only shoe I could wear was a Dansko. After the surgery I could never really find a shoe that gave me comfort and support. I have chronic issues with back pain and my legs and feet would ache terribly by the end of the day. I went to see a physical therapist because I was at my wits end with pain. She recommended to me that I change the shoe that I wear for work and recommended the Bondi. I have not ever written a review about a shoe before but I was compelled to let you know that this shoe has changed my life. It is an amazing feeling to not have crazy pain at the end of the day. I am still on my feet just as much as before but now when I wear my Bondi shoes I am very happy at the end of the day. I will never wear another sneaker! I now recommend Hoka shoes to my patients without hesitation. Every single patient that has bought a pair of shoes has come back to thank me. Thank you for making this shoe!
