I purchased these in Black and in 9.5, I usually wear 10. I think a 9 would have been too small on the right. Added insoles and they fit fine. They are a bit heavy and cumbersome to put non because you need to keep loosening the laces to get them on. All in all nice. They go with boot cut anything!

Go down half size. Only issue, I have high instep and the shoe string cushion digs. I'm on my feet 10hrs 3days and I can finally make it through my shift with little to no pain.

These shoes feel amazing! I noticed a difference with plantar fasciitis symptoms from day one. I will definitely I buy again. The only thing I don't like so much is the "bulk" of the shoe. But I'm sure that's necessary to provide that incredible comfort and support.

Shoes comfy initially for me but after 3 hrs wear in house same issue I been having with most sneakers occurred my 3-5 digits start burning. More mr issue with my foot than the shoe. I had hope this would be a winner.

I typically get a size 8 when purchasing tennis shoes. I have other Hokas that I have in size 8 but when I got these, they were slipping at the heel. I went down to a 7.5 and they fit perfect. Love the colors on this one as it isn't the bright colors that Hoka tends to put on their shoes. This one seems more neutral to me.

There is no way around it. The shows are ugly. They look like special orthopedic shoes. But they feel great. I walk a ton. I need the support and these shoes provide it. I hope Hoka can figure out how to develop a shoe with this kind of support that looks better.

Bought as treatment for Plantars Faciitis. Helped significantly with my pain. I have purchased additional pairs. My only criticism is on the black/white bondi. The black trim along the top of the woke us not wearing well. The black has scuffed off significantly and you can see streaks of the white where the black should be. I amm not a runner nor do I wear on rough terrain. This wear point has occurred just by wearing primarily indoors. That is very disappointing. This has not occurred on the other colors purchased.

As soon as I got them and took them out of the box I could tell they were made well. They look great too. I will, however, need to exchange them because they were actually a little too big! I usually wear an 11 wide but ordered a 10.5. I plan on trying a 10. The only other thing I would love to see is more selections for those of us whose shoe size could rival a Sasquatch.

These shoes are the best thing I have put on my previously injured feet now suffering with planter facilities and diabetic foot pain. The only reason, I did not rate them all 5 stars, is b/c they are a big, and bulky shoe, but comfort and support win over everything else at my age, so I will definitely be buying these shoes again and again. Thank you!

The cushion support is great on my joints. I'm on my feet all day in the hospital. Only thing I would tell people is they run narrow so if you have an issue with bunions as I do get wide width. They easily exchanged to wide for me.

I'm a nurse and I walk a lot so a comfortable shoe is important. I do feel like my right shoe is slightly tighter than the left.

I broke my distal tibia and some other bones. My PT suggested these as best for all day comfort. I tried them but returned them as they were just not the comfort in the foot bed and I felt like I would need inserts and for the price didn't want to do that trial and error. They aggravated the surgical site on my medial malleolus which I had hoped would not be the case with the memory foam. I think they would be great shoes for when I am fully recuperated which might take another 6 months to a year so I will try them again as I loved the roomy toe area and the sole.

I am a true 6.5 & these are 1/2 size bigger that expected. The arch in the left shoe was higher than the right shoe. Which made it quite uncomfortable.
Overall I will definitely be purchasing another pair in a size 6, instead, for a better fit.

I am normally a women's 7 but my last pair of Bondi 6 were size 6.5D, half a size smaller. The updated Bondi 7 in D width are still generously wide in the front but the front to back size is slightly shorter than the last pair. In other words, if I could purchase them again, I would have size up by half a size, to my actual shoe size.

Feels like a cloud but the insert was cutting into my foot even in a 8.5 Wide. I needed to order a men’s 7W to get a good fit in the arch and insole.

Great comfort, lightweight, amazing amount of support, but the laces are terrible! I'm not sure that they will last 2 months. The sizing lengthwise is true but the shoe runs a bit narrow, I had to exchange B width for a wide. It is by no means the best looking shoe I own, but the comfort and support are great for me as a work shoe. Customer service is very good.

This is my second pair of Bondis. They are a great neutral shoe for those of us who supinate or at least don't overpronate. I love the fit, the cushioning, the support, the look. The only thing that simply must be improved is the tread wear. The soles wear out ridiculously fast. These looked a year old after only a few weeks' wear. Other reviewers have noted this, and for $150 we deserve better. Please, Hoka, do something to extend the life of these soles.

I bought these on the advice of my sister and sister-in-law. While they are very nicely cushioned and comfortable, I find that my heels are slipping, which is not a problem I usually have. My Bombas socks (do yourself a favor and try Foot Zen socks by Balega instead of the over-hyped Bombas which are not worth the money) were slipping down into these shoes, so I thought I’d have to return them. Tried them on with my Balega Foot Zen socks and no more slipping down. I like these shoes, but I prefer my Brooks Ghost 13 (go up a half size). The Brooks are just more comfortable all over, and much better looking. I will keep the Hokas, but they will be second in line behind my Brooks.

Generally decent fit, though the high squishy sole makes it so that it feels as if my plantar fascia is streched significantly and there is additional pressure on the outside of my feet when briskly walking. Very comfortable for just walking around doing errands, little to no foot fatigue.
