Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

Love everything about this Hoka. This is my 4th pair in the past 3 years so now it's a Bondi 7 instead of a Bondi 6. Very cushiony, very accommodating for my orthotics. Pretty color combination for spring and summer.

Caved and bought these when I heard people were obsessed with how comfortable these are. Im always looking for something I can walk in and comfortably be on my feet for a long time (work in healthcare) and these fit the bill for me! I am a walker with a fused spine and I find these to have enough “spring” in the step to distribute impact well especially with my bad back. These are not a super cushy soft insole, but to me they feel that way because of how light they are, and the way the cadence is designed to work with your natural stride. I am happy with my purchase and I also think they are actually pretty cute! I am a true size 7 with a slightly wide foot and this size in this style fit perfectly for me. Definitely give them a try!

I was really excited to try my first Hokas, but I promptly returned these. They would not stay on my heel, the heel back is way way way too low (no inserts used). And even if my heels did stay in these are not even comfortable, no cushion, no arch support and not attractive. Ugh still on the search for a great sneaker. Thankfully Zappos is amazing!

Bought shoes for daily walking. nice thick sole and good support. Only worn them 3 times but think these are going to work out fine.

Perfect sneaker for walking 4 miles a day…..like walking on a cloud and my feet felt great when tak8ng sneaker off.

I really wanted to love these shoes because I have heard that they are super comfortable and they are supposed to be good walking shoes, which is what I wanted. When I took my first 3 mile walk with them, about 1 1/2 miles into the walk my feet began hurting so badly that I had to stop and call my hubby for him to come pick me up. Specifically, my feet hurt in the toe pad area, and the top of my foot along the arch, and ankle. It was literally like my feet started falling apart wearing these shoes. It may be that someone with normal feet who has never had any foot issues would not have a problem with them for walking. However, I had toe surgery (big toe) and my podiatrist and chiropractor have been very clear that I should only wear shoes that have solid lateral side support, so that my foot can’t roll to the side when I walk. I took this shoe into the chiropractor and he said they don’t have sufficient bilateral support of the foot, which I why my feet became such a problem after walking for a bit. I will also say that even for people with non-problem feet, my chiropractor said that these shoes would be bad for anyone playing pickleball in them - again because there isn’t enough lateral support to support the feet when making lateral movements.

The Hoka Bondi 7 are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned! I have worn Hoka Bondi shoes for many years starting with the Bondi 5. I had hoped Hoka would not ruin a good thing when upgrading to the Bondi 7, but the Bondi 7 are the best by far! I have had surgery for both Hallux Rigidus and hammer toes. These shoes with the wide footbed and Meta-Rocker bottom take the pressure of the sole of the foot. The cushioning is great. I am not a runner, just someone on her feet all day who likes to take long walks. I highly recommend the Bondi 7 and hope Hoka never changes this model.

I am no runner but was looking for a walking shoe. With stress fractures, tendon issues, and rheumatoid arthritis, my feet have been my nemesis for years. This Hoka shoe allows me to walk without pain and the cushioning and support are top-notch. This was my first pair of Hokas, but it will not be my last!

The sneakers fit great and are very comfortable!
