Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi Slip Resistant

This is my fourth pair of the workforce Bondi7 I have always loved them. Just got this pair and my feet hurt so bad.

I work in a hospital, on my feet all day. These are so supportive & comfortable, but everyone can hear me coming because they are squeaky/creaky and maybe need to soften and be broken in.

Had to return. Not nearly as comfortable as my graviotas. Bought for RN class starting in the fall 23. Needed all white for class so I was limited to what was available. Ultimately not worth it. Very sad to return them.

The shoes are comfortable. They rub on the front of ankle, especially on the right side. My feet hurt after standing in them all day. I will not spend this much money for shoes and my feet still hurt.

These are my second hokas and I'm very disappointed, especially since it was so expensive. I didn't mind that my feet started to sweat more because there aren't any perforations, but i felt pain after only a 5 hour shift. I wish I could return them but I already used them for a week.

I really loved the shoes at first, but after a couple weeks wearing them, I developed sciatica and am no longer able to wear them :( I had terrible plantar fasciitis in my right foot and wearing my new HOKA's, I was almost completely pain free within only one day. I wish I could wear them and I would give 10 stars if they hadn't caused me to get sciatica in my opposite leg. Hopefully I can learn how to correct my sciatica and still be able to wear my HOKA's, but right now I cannot. I recommended them to my family and several of my family members purchased them. Hopefully they all have better luck than I did. Your product is great, but unfortunately, I will need to learn how to address my sciatica before I can begin wearing them again.

Don't get me wrong I love all my hoka's, but I bought these for a new job and yes they are comfortable. But the tongue is already wearing down after a week of wearing them. The metal around the shoelace hole and the laces are wearing it away. I've never had any issues with my shoes before but I know it's a matter of time before a hole is there. Would i recommend based on comfort and non slip yes, quality in the material no.

Aggravates my plantar fasciitis sore heel when I work in these shoes

They look like clown shoes. They are huge. Took me days for my instep to stop burning.

I work in a grocery store on cement floors full time and my feet, hips and lower back hurt. At night I soak massage and take Advil so I can sleep. I was recommended Hoka from my chiropractor because I started getting spasms. I put out the price tag for the hopefully relief. I have used them for around 10 days. And while the pain has decreased at the end of the night, It is still present. The first couple of days was pretty good, but I noticed my feet and ankles aching by the end of the night again. I do pray it gets better otherwise I will be returning them. I have to say I am disappointed, everyone swears by these shoes. What now?

I'm an older student and waitress. Since becoming a widow I have had to spend more and more time on my feet in order to pay rent. At the moment I'm at 3 days of 15 hours on my feet and a 4th at 8 hours. For about 2 months my feet and ankles started hurting from what I suspect is over use. I bought these shoes on recommendation of professionals in the x ray department of which I am currently working as an unpaid internship, to finish my studies. These shoes did help pain in the bottom of my feet, but ankles and my 5th metatarsal still rubs on the shoe causing some pain. The shoes are still better than others I have tried, like Dansko, and some other popular shoes for nursing. The look leaves much to be desired as they are definitely the ugliest shoe I have ever spent money on. I guess there isn't much help for overwork except to take a break, which unfortunately is not an option when you support a kid by yourself. Just 1 more year to go! I hope I can keep my health long enough to finish!

TOP INNER TONGUE WAS PIERCING I bought the Bondi SR as my first pair of Hokas. I was very excited to try them but as soon as I put them on, I immediately felt the top inner tongue edge piercing hard against the side of my inner right ankle bone. I want it to give it a chance so I tried them several times at home but it was always very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I had to returned them.

I was very pleased with my purchase of the first pair (Bondi 8). They never hurt my feet the first day I wore them about 14 hours on my feet 12 of that time. Then I got a pair of Bondi SR and while they wear good they aren't as comfortable as the first pair. I got them because it said it was the perfect pair for professionals on their feet. I plan on ordering another pair of Bondi,8. I would recommend the shoes . They have good arch support and heel support. The price is one thing that kept me from buying them sooner but I now know they are worth the price. Speedy delivery. All in all it's been a pleasure dealing with this company.

This is my 6th pair and for some reason the shoe is not breaking in and allowing my to have my inserts in the shoe. My toes are going numb and it is extremely painful. I don't know what's happened to these shoes!

It's not roomy in the toes part

I ordered the same size and upper leather thinking only the design had changed. The shoe seems way too big in toe area and makes me feel like I am wearing clown shoes. I buy ONLY Hoka but very disappointed this time. I'll be exchanging them because I do like the others but my white and black leather ones are needing replaced but I guess I'll order mesh.

I am 50 and on my feet all day. I bought these to replace my Gaviotta, THAT was a mistake.

This is a good shoe it just doesn't last very long maybe 6 weeks at the most. A good shoe shouldn't cost this amount and wear out in 6 weeks

The shoes themselves were comfortable on the bottoms of my feet and gave plenty of toe room for my wide feet but unfortunately the tongue was pretty stiff and dug into my shin pretty hardcore. Had to return them.

This is day 7 since I am wearing to work the Hoka shoes - I will give it another 3-5 days to see that it might - be my feet to adjust to the shoes - The first 2 days I was in sheer agony. I was expecting "walking on clouds" but my feet were in pain and my legs started to get fatigue. I spent almost $200 to get what I tried to fix - now day 7, a little bit better, however, after 5 hours standing on my feet with these shoes, and walking back and forth to work, I cannot wait to take them off. I am very sorry, people seem to be so happy and have miraculous results as per your reviews, not me.

This is my 8th pair of HOKAs, I have walking, running, trainingin every different color. This is my 2nd pair of Leather Bondi (had to replace due to puppy chewing) Just received these as they were on back order. Was so excited, but they are not white. The sole is white, leather portion of shoe is more of a grey colordef. Not a white leather. SO disappointed. Returning as I will never wear them, they look dirty. Hoping it is an error in this batch and not the new color. All my other white Hokas are WHITE.
