Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi Slip Resistant

These shoes have pros and cons about them. The pros are the waterproof outer shell and the slip resistant soles. The cons is that even ordered wide they still fall short. Not the greatest insoles for this type of shoe. Anyone who has feet issues needs to carefully consider not getting this shoe. Unless you have to have this type of shoe for the everyday, do not consider!

This shoe was not as expected for me, but - i was not using it as a restaurant shoe. For me it would have been a daily shoe and was not what I needed. Howevee; I could see how it would have been a sturdy and durable restaurant shoe.

The shoes are very comfortable, but in just a couple of wears they are very run down and no amount of cleaning is making them look any better. For the price of these shoes, they should not look so dirty and run down after only a couple of wears.

I love these shoes. They are everything they say. My feet do not hurt for hours. They are slip resistant as said and I got wide. Fit perfectly. However, I've only had them a few months and they are coming apart already :( I work at Starbucks. Don't know how they are coming undone already. Very sad. Will either have to purchase another pair soon or go somewhere else.

I love my new hoka shoes so very comfortable and not heavy at all it's like I'm not wearing anything, very good for every day wear

Normally I wouldn't have purchased this shoe, but I was working briefly in the food service industry and needed a non-slip shoe. It works fairly well for that, but the leather upper was very uncomfortable and rubbed my feet raw. I have a bunion so I love Hoka in most cases, but this shoe wasn't great for that issue. It has never seemed to loosen up much even though I have tried it for other walking situations. Only ok compared to other ones

I like the Hoka brand and have a few pair and have purchased them for family and friends. My friend works on her feet ALL day 10-12 hours a day for 5 or 6 days a week. Unfortunately these shoes last 3 months and I purchased two pair at a time so you rotates them daily. She only wears them to work because of the expense.Last year I purchase 4 pair. It's not that the shoe isn't comfortable and she loves them because they help with the pain of being on her feet but they fall apart. For the price it's hard to recommend a great shoe that falls apart in three months.

I might have chosen the wrong style but the Bondi SR is too big/cumbersome for my feet. The upper lace tie rubs on my arch/ankle area while walking and leaves marks. If I loosen it then I don't have the full fit. Also, my feet are on the thin side so they float inside of these which doesn't feel comfortable. They were a gift so I have to keep them but I keep putting my old sneaks back on each time I go walking or running instead of these :(

I'm a cosmetologist, the stability is great, but I prefer the softer ones.

I have a lot of pain on a daily basis and I expected these shoes to help with some of it, but they didn't. They never felt good on my feet and now they just hurt my feet when I wear them.

this second pair i wasn't satisfy they didn't feel comfortable at all I sent it back and still the same thing I have been a Value Customer to this COMPANY CHECK MY RECORD HOW MANY SHOES I HAVE PURCHASED

I do like the Hoka brand and shoes are great for first few months, but I'm on my feet a lot and they wear out too fast.

I bought these for work but after trying them out at home for less then 2 hrs my heels started hurting because I have heel spurs in both feet. These were not as "plush" as my Bondi 9. So I did an exchange for another pair of Bondi 9 running shoes and no problem. Everyones feet are different for different shoes. I just wish the SR model was as plush as the Bondi 9 model.

I bought these from my local running shop to wear for work as a letter carrier. I walk a minimum of 12 miles a day, and I need black leather shoes. These are greatwater resistant, roomy toe box, soft leatherBUT the metal grommets at the top were digging into the very wide tongue and stabbing the top of my foot near my ankle. I REMOVED them MYSELF with a butter knife, and it fixed the pain. A quarter inch thick piece of metal shouldn't be going into shoes that are meant for being physically active. Hopefully the grommets can be up for reconsideration.

I didn't like how it make sound like I was walking with plastic shoes They are comfortable but ne noise didn't like it

I love this shoe and the color. The bad part is that after using them for two days my feet started hurting. They are not made for wide feet or if your feet get swollen due to long standing periods don't get the regular, get a wide size. But I'm sad that wide wasn't available in this color. Got so many compliments. Overall, I recommend them for regular feet and loved that at the end of my 12 hour shift I wasn't feeling tired.

Bought these because I wanted a pair of Hokas that were water resistant fir rainy days and winter weather. These fit OK and perhaps they just need "breaking in," nut they aren't nearly as comfortable as my Bondi 9s. Doesn't feel like they have the same great arch support, either.

I'm a HUGE Hoka fan and have been wearing them for years at work. I'm on my feet all day and HOKA seems to be the best shoe for this. Unfortunately I bought my first pair that I absolutely hate. The Bondi SR. I usually just buy the Bondi but these caught my attention because of the non slip feature. Well, the shoe is the exact same, except for the tread which is awesome but the shoe material that your foot sits in is terrible. It's like a stiff vinyl material and I have blisters on my toes. I spent a lot of money on these and the constant pain everyday reminds me of my horrible decision to get this model.

This is my third pair (2 black and 1 lunar), the price is okay because of the comfort the shoe provides but I must say that other features need more reinforcement. The stitching always come undone and the toe flap at the front of the shoe always separates from the unit which makes the initial product defective because it's no longer waterproof. Basically they don't make the black shoe as good as the others. It's like they skip steps or something. Add a double stitch.

Insoles are not the same as the bondi 9, which i purchased a few months ago. I love them and ordered these as work shoes being they are more waterproof. I ordered the same size as my bondi 9 and these are much larger and bulky seem like the men's shoes. Also not as comfortable as the bondi 9

the only reason I am giving these shoes 3 stars is because no matter how many precautions I took, and no amount of breaking in these shoes helped with the blisters these gave me on my heels. When I wear them I walk average 17,000 steps. The cushion and support is great, but not sure if they are built for the amount of walking I need to do.

Will probably be returning these shoes. They are really big and hurt my feet. Trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but not looking to promising.

I had Bondi 7 for 2 years , then work said had to be polishable, bad demand for people who stand , walk and do stairs most of day, was a good shoe. Bought these to comply they are not that true to size , consider a half size up even if you have to wear socks , tight toe box on pinkie toes, and tight over foot and a much harder base after a couple of hours! Left shoe seemed smaller though My foot is a tiny bit larger I guess; no room for wiggle at all! If possible try before you buy none in my area carries them , but will order them. Shipping was good ! I do recommend though other Hokas just not this one for long hours or older feet.
