Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

I needed new Hoka's for at least a year or so but didn't want to buy the Bondi 8 as so many people seemed to not like them. Very happy Hoka started selling Bondi 7 again and hope they stop trying to change a shoe that already works so well. Had to wait months for the all black but worth the wait. Just hope Hoka keeps making the Bondi 7 all black for a long time.

Comfortable and very well made. I can walk on cobblestones and barely feel them.

I use these shoes for walking. Is it just me or are the shoes not made as well as they used to be? When I started wearing Hoka's 6 years ago, I bought them because they were the only shoe that didn't hurt my feet and that I didn't wear out and break down the support so fast. I was 350lbs. I am almost half that weight now but the cushion/support seems to wear out faster. I have 8 pairs of Hoka's, its the only shoe I buy but I'm trying to figure out what's different.

The Bondi 7 is a great shoe. I've worn the Bondi 4, 5, 6, 7, & 8 versions. So disappointed with the 8 - the heel on the 8 is a tripping hazard on stairs, is narrow, and it's less attractive. The Bondi 7 is a wonderful shoe. It allows me to walk for miles, hike, . . .and everything else I want to do.

I can't believe how these shoes have relieved my pain from Mortons neuroma.I no longer need an insert just a 1/4 " pad under my toes.I intend to buy more in different colors.

My friends and daughter have always told me how much they love these shoes. I had a hard time with the price. I finally bit the bullet and bought them and I understand why everyone loves them. They are super comfortable and I can walk for hours and my feet don't hurt. I have only had them two weeks so I don't have long term experience but so far so good! I wish they were a little cheaper but I hope the price means they will last for a while!

Really liking the fit. I am surprised though that you name them Bondi 7 and Bondi 8. They really don't look anything similar. I usually get Bondi 8 but you were out of my size so I got the rereleased supposedly of Bondi 7 and tried it. Glad I did.

so glad they brought the Bondi 7 back! I do not like the flared sole of the Bondi 8. It makes me trip when I walk. The 7 has great comfort and support. I can wear it all day at work or walking around. I wish they would permanently bring it back so I don't feel the urge to stock up!

The Bondi 7 is the perfect shoe for my foot problems. They fit great and have the padding I need. I don't like the fit of the Bondi 8. Bringing the Bondi 7 back for a limited time allowed me to get more colors.

Comfortable. Great cushioning. Keep feet cool even in 100 degree weather. And as I do two daily 3-4 mile walks with my 120 lb Rottweiler, the Hokas are COOL/Comfortable/Resilient! I will buy another pair shortly so I can rotate and get twice the walking comfort! C

I walk all the time and love taking it with me on trips to other countries where walking is critical

Would by again

As you can see I am a avid HOKA believer but mainly in the BONDI 7's as I originally bought them when they initially came out and got 2 pairs. Well over the period of about 2 years I wore them out as I am a Nurse Practitioner Provider in a busy urgent care. I tried to buy another pair but BONDI 8's were out so I bought them. I was extremely disappointed in how my feet felt in these. I went online and found a pair of BONDI 7's and then wore them out bought insoles for them to make them last longer. Then a few months ago got the email that the company had heard our cry's and the BONDI 7's were back. I initially bought 2 pain then a few weeks later another pain fearing they would be gone again and recently another. I now have 4 pair just in case they go away again. I'm set for at least 4 years!!

Last winter I started having heel pain after being on my feet at work for a few busy days in a row. I tried using inserts and wearing other sneakers every day but nothing worked. Several of my coworkers wear Hoka brand shoes and talked about how comfortable and supportive they are, and recommended that I try them. At first I balked at the price, way more than I usually spend on shoes, but after a few more days of being in pain I finally broke down and ordered the ones recommended by the website. Wow! What a game changer! The day they arrived I put them on and went for a walk. The foot bed cradled my foot, and the soles are so cushy it's like walking with springs on my feet. I've worn them to work a few times now and guess what? No more heel pain! I'm ready to order another pair and will definitely be taking these with me on my trip to France next month.

I like bondi 7 heel and sole the best, better than Bondi 8 and up. The extra part on the bottom of the heel (wing) is awkward and I catch it in my daily work and chores and have almost taken some good falls.

Love the Bondi shoes! Highly recommend them!

Exceptional for arthritis in my feet joints.

The Support on my arthritic feet has really helped with balance and walking I definitely would buy another pair.

Great for walking!

Are these pink or peach?? I know the color description says peach but they look like a pastel pink to me.

Don't even need my orthotics with these!

I love this shoe! Rebrand if you must to distinguish from Bondi 8, but please don't discontinue.

I love it. Very comfortable.

Really fits beautifully & helps cushioning my sore lower back! I love the support it gives!

Bondi 7 is my favorite of the series and I was not so happy with the Bondi 8. Now they are back and in muted colors! I swear by these for my 12 hour shift as a nurse. I think I need a second pair in another color, just in case they change things again.I'm ecstatic with my purchase!
