Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

Really enjoying my purchase!!

This gives me the soft padding my feet enjoy.

I recently started running with a friend, and she recommended I invest in a good pair of running shoes and socks if I wanted to actually enjoy running. That being said, I'm not even going to try to pretend to know anything about good running shoes. I just know that these HURT. I took the Hoka Shoe Finder quiz and was recommended Bondi 7s. Size quiz recommended a size 7, which sounded right because I'm a 7 in everything I own. Express ordered them and they arrived over a week later (but that's COVID's fault). When they arrived, I just threw them on and went for a walk to try them out. I liked that they provided me with lots of "bounce", but by the end of the 3 miles, I couldn't wait to take off these shoes. They didn't conform to my feet at all, particularly around my arch. As another reviewer with I guess similar feet shape as me has noted, it was just constantly pressing against the "inner step." The shoes were also too big by about a half size, if not a whole size. I noticed a lot of people raving about this shoe because it helped with their back pain /flat feet. During the shoe finder quiz, I had selected a shoe to help with supination because I tend to do that a bit but not enough to cause back problems. I figured it was my fault and had ordered something I didn't need (excessive arch support). I re-took the quiz but selected a different gait this time: Best match Bondi 7. Selected a different gait again: Best match Bondi 7. Selected marathon runner: Best match Bondi 7. Selected 5k runner: Best match Bondi 7. I have now realized they're just trying to push this new release onto customers...I'll be returning these shoes and going to buy something else in store. Pros: 30 day guarantee/easy online return process; someone with flat feet might benefit from this shoe Cons: not true to size; didn't "hug" my feet correctly

I wear them daily. Soooo comfortable!

I wear this shoes everyday for any type of walking. They are the best.

I replaced my Bondi6's with 7's. Best heel cushion and they help with my plantar fasciitis

I've waited awhile to get this HOKA white Bondi 7 and I'm very happy! I love them, so comfortable and stylish! I love the roomy toe box! Thanks for an amazing shoe!!!!!

I get a lot of compliments on my Bondi shoes. They are very comfortable. I purchased a pair for my husband too. He really likes them.

Great for working long hours

These are the most amazing shoes I have ever had! The comfort level is through the roof. I have a bone spur on one heel and these shoes make it non existent. They are true to size. I will own more in the near future!

Bought these as nursing shoes at the suggestion of salesperson in a running footwear shop. They feel very stiff to me and I have a great deal of knee pain while and after wearing them. They might be great for other people but they are just not for me.

This is a nice shoe for walking and running. The toe box is wide and the heel is very wide. My feet are too narrow for this type of shoe. The shoe does have great shock absorption. If you are a walker, this is the shoe for you.

I own the bondi 6. I just love this shoe but I needed to replace them. I order the bondi 7 and for some reason they have a slightly uncomfortable fit. The shoe feels stiff and has a more snug fit. I will be returning the bondi 7 regular for a wide fit and hopefully that will be a game changer.

I have neuroma and these are the only shoes I can run in without pain! Would not buy anything else!

I have foot issues and the Bondi is the best shoe for keeping me moving. This is my second pair and I am as happy as I was with the first pair. I can walk & jog without causing pain to my feet.

I bought them for my wife and these are the only ones she uses now, she says it is like running in a cloud, she doesn't feel the road, recommended for sure.

Now I have 2 pair of the Hoka One One Bondi 7 and I love them. Bought this shoe for a bone edema problem in my left foot. I needed something cushioned but still stable and these shoes are perfect. Wish they had been around back when I was running longer distances and doing Triathlons!! In regular shoes I always buy a 7....sized up to a 7 and a half in these based on other reviews and they are perfect. Thanks Hoka! Only thing I would change are the laces.....too skinny!

I'm not a fan of most sneakers, but I love these. The extra height, the high arch, the style... all are quite nice.

Love how comfortable and supportive these shoes are.

After speaking with an online helpdesk person, I was able to exchange the shoes that hurt my feet for the correct size without any problems.

these! I'm a convert after many, many years of New Balance. These are much more cushy and comfortable!

These shoes are really comfortable and feel really cool to wear honestly. I really do feel like I'm flying in these shoes! Can't feel the ground underneath my feet. It's awesome.

Great shoe for my daily walks. Steady, comfy.
