Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

First time wearer of Hoka and wish I could like this shoe and the others I tried but I still had pain and I had to get used to the soles being higher than what I am used too.I got blisters on heel & on toe & I wear blister free socks Feetures socks . Once I heal from pain I will try Hoka again. Wish their were more single colors.

I use the shoes for work and they are the best shoes I have ever worked in. They are so comfortable and I would definitely buy them again!

I was torn between Bondi 7 & Clifton 7. I liked the arch support of the Clifton, but not the smaller toe box (tapered oddly smooshes the toes) and the bright coral was amazing! The Bondi had excellent toe box, but felt a bit bulky, more like a walking shoe, not a running shoe, but walking is my activity and I decided to keep it. At first I thought I made a mistake as the shoe feels almost too cushioned. I've never had a shoe this squishy (it's a good squishy), but after two weeks I've gotten used to it. The black and white is nice, but I really wish, and this is my biggest complaint the color selection is dull. Please offer it in some great colors like the coral Clifton. Something that pops and would look great with black leggings or for me, black scrubs. I'm a 5-6 depending on shoe brand and style, but a 5.5 in the Bondi felt perfect. Regular width.

This is my second pair of Bondi's. They were recommended to me by my podiatrist after having issues and surgery on my Achilles' tendon and suffering with bursitis. These shoes have made the difference in helping me to maintain an exercise routine( mainly walking, a little jogging). I recommend them to anyone I know suffering with these issues. Great job Team Hoka!

Purchased for my mother. She works on a clothing store and spends long periods of time on her feet and walking. She hasn't stop talking about how great it feels and her feet doesn't ache anymore. She was able to notice the difference immediately. Although she was skeptical due to the bulky design (her words) she can see the benefits of the shoes and loves them.

I love these shoes! I wanted a comfortable pair of walking shoes, these are the best I've tried! Now 6 months pregnant and won't wear anything else. The cushioning is great, really helps my legs and back. Ended up buying for my mom too!

I ordered size 7 but I should have ordered wide. A bit tight and my little toes can't breath by the end of my shift my feet just want to scream and be free of discomfort.

These are my first shoes that I've actually felt *supported* by. They feel so nice and squishy yet stable it's amazing how I can leap around without making a sound, as they absorb so much of the shock to my joints and the ground. They're also really cute.

Just the right size, use for walking, and I like the color blue.

Use for 5 mile walks

These shoes have the best support of any shoe I've ever owned. The heel, the sides of my feet and the balls of my feet are cushioned with every step.

These are the last brand of walking shoes I had to try. Nike/adidas/brooks/mizuno-these are the most comfortable and supportive. Super happy.

I have two pairs: Black for daily walk arounds and the blue haze/black iris for running. Love the shoes in every way, except the blue haze/black iris colors are dingy and look dirty. Too bad, but not worth returning the shoes for the color. I hope there are better choices next year, when I go for my next two pairs.

I've used this shoe for short to middle distance runs and some longer walks. The cushion has really helped ease the pains of dealing with concrete. It is a bit roomier. I used their size guide comparing to some asics and adidas that fit.

Love the hokas. I get stopped when I am out and asked about them. They are definitely building up a following here. Love the marshmallow feeling. I'm on my third pair

The cushioning is so responsive in the step return that it feels like kind of like your gently bouncing with every step

I've been very happy with all the Hokas I've bought.

I have horrible feet from years of sports and abuse. These are the only athletic shoes I will buy anymore. Great support, excellent padding, great all around.

Normally running shoes require buying 1/2- 1 whole size larger in order to ensure enough toe box room, but not these. U can safely order ur regular size. Unfortunately, I did not know this, and will have to exchange them
