Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

I bought these for work, since I'm walking on concrete and lifting heavy stuff all day. I noticed a handful of people had Hoka shoes and really liked them. They definitely help to alleviate my foot pain, but the shoes feel a little narrow and have been giving me blisters on the edges of my feet. I find this odd since I have kind of narrow feet that tend to slide around in most normal sneakers.

I bought these last week in a 9 wide and they fit perfect. I broke my foot 6 months ago and had 17 screws put in my foot. I couldn't wear anything but Birkenstock's for eight months until I received the Hoka. I took a chance and now I can wear a tennis shoe. The only reason I gave them 4 stars is because you must wear socks or they will tear your bill up ! "Blisters" They need to work on that but these shoes are the best I've found other than the heel issue.

I was thinking they would be my go to shoes but unfortunately they are just OK. They have the cushioning in walking but having a high instep, they are hard for me to get on. I bought the wide width and thought there would be some extra room in the instep and there is none. I'm keeping them because they are just OK.

I really like these shoes. The only thing that I will criticize is the fact that they hurt my arches

I had purchase one pair and then thought I purchase another for work in the OR. However, the second pair came and in the left shoe it rubs my the side of my foot. So by the end of the day it hurts. I am within my 30 day and requesting an exchange. So hopefully the next pair will not rub. Because I love my first pair I wear walking. Waiting for an exchange to come.

I would have done 5 stars, but I tried these instead of my usual Clifton's and find that I just prefer the Clifton's . Great shoe, but am going to back to my usual !

good cushioning, neutral color will go with most everything

I have only worn them 1x for an extended dog walk. They were comfortable, easily accommodated my swelling feet. I have my right foot I severely injured few yrs ago. I have residual swelling which increases with activity. There was no binding or being uncomfortable. The only complaint I have is adequate arch support is lacking.

I chose these on recommendation from my physical therapist for plantar's faciatis. The dealer suggested this particular shoe because I would have my custom orthotics, and needed neutral balance. The inserts that come with the shoes are insufficient if you need ANY arch support. They have a wide toe box if you're into that. I need extra thick Thorlos socks to wear them comfortably. I found that I had to break in the left shoe opposite the ball of my foot since these shoes cause supination. They are cushiony. I was surprised since my arches are low, and I tend to pronate. I'm also believe there is a flaw in the left shoe. It is slightly more narrow at that point than the right. That said, having always worn supportive shoes (ASICS), I am working muscles that are weaker than I thought since I am having to support myself. I think this is a plus. All in all, I am pleased and I would buy Hoka again.

I am a RN and on my feet all day. Homs are great shoes. Please thought I could wear a 7.5 D. I need an 8D

Super comfortable but do not like color options and have been waiting for all white Bondi 7's to come back in stock. Please make more! I bought blue to suffice until they are back in stock. I have narrow feet and am consistently 6.5 and only wear 6 in some flip flops. 6.5 fit perfectly.

I had to replace insoles immediately for comfort but otherwise all was good.

Very comfortable but very bulky

I think I ordered the incorrect size as they were too big and I had to get used to the fit. I will try them again because I like the cushion. I am a nurse not a runner and I have issues with foot pain

Comfortable. Great for walking

They are beautiful shoes but my knees hurt and the tops of my feet I can't return or exchange because of how I paid for them. We bought 3 pair as a family my girls love them and I want to love them too.

the material is soft

Didn't fit my foot right to snug and didn't realize how much cushion there was. I'm going to try the Gaviota 3 wide.
