Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

I love the shoes. The color was great and very comfortable.

They felt great when I first tried them on in the house. I then took my 2 mile walk and my big toe was rubbing on my second toe in the left shoe and my right foot was feeling weird and I felt I needed more arch support. I was hoping they would work out because I loved the color! But they weren’t for me.

This is the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever had. I was ordering my second pair but wanted to try both the medium and wide width. I want as much room in the toe as I can get but the problem with the wide is that the heel then becomes too loose. Medium width is still comfortable. My only complaint about this shoe is that the platform is so wide that sometimes if I’m not paying attention I can hit my shoes together when walking. It has not caused me to trip but the potential is there.

This shoe style was recommended by my podiatrist to continue running while I await surgery. The shoe is very comfortable but I don’t recommend it for running it doesn’t have any drop which put tension on my knee and ankle. I am using them for walking.

I reviewed these when I first got them. They were very comfortable in the house but when I took my mile walk my feet were killing me afterwards. I realized there wasn’t enough arch support and they were a bit too narrow when walking. My big toe was squeezed against my second toe. So I’m gonna return and try something else.

So I think this shoe is great, other than it is bigger than other brands. Since I wear 9's in most shoes and with these I'm having to send my 9's back for an 8 1/2. So definitely be careful with sizing, since the 9's were a whole half size bigger on me and slipping off my feet. Even though I wear 9's in pretty much every shoe in my closet. The comfort was amazing in this shoe though and I'm looking forward to trying the 8 /2s out.

I love the fabric, and the turquoise color is stunning. The only issue for me is that I am petite, and the sole is wider than the rest of the sneaker. I stumbled several times wearing them in the house. I put the Hoka sneakers away, and finally decided I would return them and buy something else from Zappos. This generous return policy is a Zappos gift. I would recommend the Hoka sneakers for others. The shoes are beautiful and comfortable.

They look gorgeous and are crazy cushiony when you first put them on and just walk around. However, when you actually take them for a run I have to agree with some reviewers who mentioned there’s something weird about where they squeeze your feet and it’s actually painful during and for hours after and it was just a 5K. Will have to return them, sadly. :’( sucks cause I got a great deal on them.

Did not have wide enough openings for installation of orthotics.

I loved the look of the shoe and several people I know have chis shoe and like it. For me, it was too short and too tight so I unfortunately had to return then. I usually wear an 8-1/2 or 39-40 European so for this particularly size, Bondi 7, I should have gotten a larger size.

Too narrow.

Got these to help with my Plantar fasciitus. Was able to walk for an hour without my heels hurting. However, the toe box was too narrow and hurt my toes. I am going to order the wide and hope they feel better.

Very narrow, makes my feet fall asleep due to be a bit too tight

Size okay. Arch support not good. Tongue of shoes never centered. Always slipped to one side

I loved these shoes as soon as I put them on. Love, love, love. I purchased them to ease some achilles/calf pain, and at the recommendation of my massage therapist. I don't want to take them off, they are so incredibly comfortable!!! The only problem is, they're not water proof, which is a serious bummer. So, wet feet it is. I don't understand why athletic shoe companies don't make Gortex sneakers. Wouldn't it be obvious? I mean, rain, people.

The shoes fit pretty well. Many nurses at work are wearing them. I just don't like how clunky they look but overall a good quality shoe

Little big

Love the comfort of this shoe. I have narrow feet, so I have to tie laces tight. I walk 4 miles a day for exercise, these shoes feel great so far!

The fit was too big, I returned them for 1/2 size smaller and it's spot on.

Very pretty color and it's a comfy shoe. I think it runs small because I usually wear a 4 and was surprised that the 5 actually fit well.

Too narrow in the toe box. Heavier than expected.
