This the comfiest shoe ever. I get no blisters while I am running or at the gym. My feet are stable and I am able to be in these shoes 24/7. A must get for older people or workout fanatics! Thank you HOKA!

For someone with aching, old, too many breaks to remember, feet-these shoes are a game changer. My daughter had them-I ignored her "glory for the shoe" but when my orthopedic doctor suggested these-I dove in! I did need a 1/2 size smaller than my usual shoe but these are truly-life changing. I have never worn more comfortable, stylish, supportive athletic shoes! Let the 5Ks recommence!

Comfortable shoes from the moment I first put them on my feet! Only complaint - if you want to call it that - is that they seem to feel a bit big, but not so much that I wanted to go down a half size.

The shoe would be great but, of course, I did not have an opportunity to try on different styles due to COVID and I have never worn HOKA before. But, I will try again but this time at another store. For me, the Blondi was just too much "floating" which I know is good for many people. Other than my error in selection, everything else about the shoe is outstanding - the quality of construction and feel of the overall shoe. So, I will definitely try a different style.

I really liked the look of this shoe. The area right above my toes, below the last shoelace hole, was too tight. I have a very wide foot and this shoe was not wide enough and I felt that it would not "give" with more wear.

The best shoes I have ever bought! I now have 4 pairs of these due to plantar fasciitis. No other shoe helped me walk but these have healed my feet!

I have plantar fasciitis, I been trying different inserts and none of them works for me. I was hoping this expensive shoes will help me but unfortunately they didn't, they felt very comfortable the first hours but after 5 hours my feet were in fire like always.

I'm 35 weeks pregnant and the brand and model came recommended. They do feel like clouds and aren't heavy. I don't know what it's like to not have hurting swollen feet anymore but these do help me go longer in the day and now I'm icing at night instead of afternoon. I can tie them without help (so far). They aren't hot in 80-90 degree weather. I normally where a half size larger in closed toe shoes and did not need too in these. Something about them keeps them looking cute and short and still not cramming my toes in the front. If you are preggo - Order the "WIDE" to give more opening up of the laces and less stress on your arch that might swell.

I like the shoes but don't love them . They lack the stability I need when walking. The cushioning is super.

For the most part, I really like these shoes. It feels like you're walking on clouds, the cushion support is unreal. I've hiked steeled mountainsides and regular paths. I have a bad knee and on the descent, I could feel the stability keeping my knee supported. Not once did it give way or falter. The only complaint I have is it's uncomfortable is the arch support. That's not unusual for me with sneakers, but this one does seem to be on the more extreme side than others. I'm hoping with time, once they are broken in, the soreness will dissipate.

I purchased the Bondi 7 for walking 2-3 miles daily. It has great cushion from heel to toe, is light weight and the fabric is soft on the foot. My issue was with the height of the arch that cut into my foot. Even removing the HOKA orthotic and replacing it with one from another sneaker still brought rubbing and pain against my arch. This was my 1st pair of HOKA ONE ONE sneakers so I was sad to have to return them. I may try another size later when I can try them on in a store. Great sneaker just not for me.

The only thing missing from this shoe is more arch support. If it had even a small amount more support for arches this would be a 5 stars.

7 months ago I was in an accident that put me in a wheelchair for 3 months. Ever since then I cannot stand or walk for any extended period of time due to pain and lack of endurance. I bought these shoes for a trip I took with my family to try to wear something that would prevent me from hurting as bad or as soon as i usually would. These shoes work. If you are looking for a shoe to help you through recovery these are it. I was able to walk for hours longer than I used to without these shoes. The support is incredible and the comfort is 10/10. The relief i feel from being able to put these on and not be scared that i will be in excruciating pain in 2 hours is priceless.

I don't know what you did to the footbed in the Bondi 7 compared to the Bondi 6 of which I had 3 pairs, but I could barely get through my 5 mile walk wearing these shoes. The outer 1/3-1/2 of each foot began to go numb and the pain radiated into the ball of my left foot and up the back of my left leg. I tried readjusting the tension on the laces but it made no difference. These fit & cushioning is very different than my former Bondi 6 pairs. The cushioning does not feel as plush. However you tweaked the footbed doesn't work for me & I'm extremely saddened by this.

These shoes are very comfortable and stylish looking. I totally love them except...because they are so cushioned it makes them a bit thicker in the soles. I'm a bit clumsy and am not a high stepper due to hip issues. I need to remember to step higher when going up curbs and steps. But the cushioning on my feet is great!

I bought my 1st. pair of Hoks athletic shoes on a whim. I was originally looking for another brand, and Hoka was suggested by the sales person. I'd never heard of Hoka, and after I tried them on, they went home with me. I wear orthotics partially because I have extremely high arches, with Hoka, there's plenty of room for my inserts without crowding my feet. I made the mistake of buying a pair of Brooks athletic shoes, only to discover that they do crowd my feet after a few hours of wear. Currently, the Brooks shoes are in the box they came in, and I bought a new pair of Hoka. I've learned that if I want durability and comfort all day, only Hoka will do.

This is a pair of well-made shoes with decent support. However, it does not provide enough cushioning for me.

I've had them for two weeks absolutely luv them my heels don't hurt, can actually feel them cushioning each step. When I wear another pair of shoe my feet scream I'm going to order a second pair soon just to wear at home
