This is my 6th pair of Hokas. I LOVE them. Earlier pairs had shoelaces that wouldn't stay tied and then you finally got that right. And now the pair I just received have laces that are barely long enough to tie. C'mon HOKA!!!! Your quality is too good for this to occur.

Toe box was huge & felt sloppy on my narrow feet, not much side support. Lots of cushion but had to return because my foot slid around in them. Wanted more arch support also.

I wish this shoe had worked for me. It’s basically known as the “holy grail” for problem feet. The sole felt fantastic as I have severe pain in the ball of my foot and the joint of my big toe. However, it was a little too narrow in the toe box and too wide in the heel. I had to use the Runner’s lace in order for my heel not to slip, and that made it too right across the top of my ankle. The fit just wasn’t right for me. I normally wear 8 1/2 in running shoes but ordered an 8 after reading reviews. 8 was the perfect length. I’d try an 8W, but since the heel is already too big I know I’d be swimming in it. Thank you to Zappos for the free returns! Off to search for a different shoe....

I love Hokas but the Bondi doesn't have as much support as my Arahi 3s. I'll have to keep looking for another pair of Arahi 3s in my size.

The Hoka Bondi is fairly comfortable. I am in them atleast 8 hours a day at work as I am on my feet all the time, usually moving quickly. I am in my 60's and needed something with more support than NB. I have only worn them about a week now so I will continue to monitor the fit, the support, and level of comfort, as time moves forward.

I have another pair of Hoke One to One in a size 8.5 and they fit perfectly. These were a bit longer and therefore are not wide enough where I needed them to be. I am exchanging for a half size down so will hopefully report back that they are perfect!

I had never heard of Hoka shoes until a couple of years ago. A friend of mine was on hospice care at the time and her visiting nurse one day had on a pair of Hoka shoes. I asked her about them and she had only good things to say about them. I am an RN who works 12 hour shifts and decided to give them a try.
Last year I bought a pair of the Hoka Gaviota. They were pretty comfortable. Yesterday I got my Hoka Bondi 6 and decided to go ahead and wear them to work without breaking them in first. I had a back up pair of shoes just in case it didn't work out. These shoes are so comfortable!! At the end of my 12 hour shift my feet weren't hurting. My back wasn't hurting. These are so light, so comfortable, and provide so much cushioning. I am very happy with my purchase.

These shoes were recommended by my competitive running niece, and also podiatrists. I have big toe problems (arthritis, bunyons) and I need a shoe that doesn't let my toes bend a lot. This does the trick. However, they are rather clunky and not very pretty. I will keep them for serious walking around our home, but I probably will not take them on trips.

I had a pair of Bondi 5s that were starting to fall apart, so I decided it was time for a new pair. I have a very wide foot (7E or so), but the regular width Bondi 5 fit beautifully. However, I found that the fit of the Bondi 6 is narrower, so after trying two different sizes in standard width I ordered a 7D and they fit fine. Not quite as cushiony as the Bondi 5 but still cushiony enough to support my step aerobics habit.

These shoes were very cushioned and might work well for someone with an injury (if approved by their doctor.) However, I thought that they were a little unstable and might cause pain in my knees and ankles so I decided to return them. The Gaviota 2 model felt more stable and more suitable for me.

These shoes were very comfortable, but I tripped a bit when walking because the soles are a bit wider than I'm used to. Also the style emphasized my wide feet. Thanks Zappos for letting me try different styles.

-I hate how hospital clogs look, and my old running shoes are literally superglued together. I wanted a pair of shoes I can wear when I'm on my feet and running around for a whole shift
-pros: very stylish, the bottoms of my feet feel magical
-cons: This is just me, but the tops of my feet are super sensitive to tight laces. I figured out how to tie old running shoes-turned-walking shoes so that the tops of my feet don't hurt, but I can't figure out how to do so with the Hokas without having the shoes be so loose that it makes my knees hurt from my feet sliding around inside the shoes.

So far so good, even though it feels too wide and big. I have been getting 8 1/2 size shoes, for hoka I got the 8. Still it feels too big and wide around my toe area. The cushion is incredible, it is what I needed in a 12hour shift. Have my for 2 weeks now, still debating if I should have gotten a smaller size.

I'm a long time Hoka fan but the shoe tongue is now made with a stiffer material which is very uncomfortable when running. I kept the shoe because I love the support and cushioning but I don't lace it all the way so the material stays away from my ankle. I wish Hoka would go back to the old construction.

I am wearing this shoe after having Topaz procedure for plantar fasciitis. It is well cushioned and comfortable. It is not a shoe I would wear otherwise. It's a tad wide and bulky looking. Just not my style.

I love this shoe - Bondi 6 - but the pair I bought seems big and wide although it is the exact same size as my last pair of the Bondi 6. Also - I am wondering if these shoes were not already a returned pair because the shoelaces were very short one on one side and long on the other of each shoe - and were not presented like most new shoes. Disappointed if this is the case.

This is my second pair. I like this shoe, it's been great for work being on my feet 40 hours a week. I desperately need a good thick sole and supporting shoe and this shoe is great. My first pair seemed to last a little longer. I can tell when shoes are starting to break down, my hips start hurting and body feels more fatigue therefore this is happening sooner than the first pair. Gets quite expensive needing shoes every 7 months but I have to have them. I'm 56 female... a good shoe is essential. Thanks for your quality product.
