Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi Slip Resistant

I have to share a bit about my experience with Hoka shoes. At first, these shoes were a dream come true. They were so comfy that I not only got a pair for myself but also went out of my way to buy them as gifts for my family and friends, raving about how great they were. In fact, over the last three years, I've eventually purchased at least over 10 pairs, which speaks volumes about my belief in and support for the brand. I didn't wear them all the timejust here and there, maybe once or twice a month. So, imagine my surprise when, after a year, as soon as the seasons changed and I decided to take them out for a spin, the shoes came apart. This was the last thing I expected, especially since I had taken such good care of them and really hadn't worn them that much. Now, here's the kicker: I found out I couldn't even claim the warranty because it had been over a year. Honestly, for shoes that cost as much as these did, you wouldn't expect them to start falling apart so soon, right? I truly hope Hoka sees this as constructive feedback. I would love to continue supporting a brand that stands by the quality of its products, reflecting the good name it has built. It's important for me, and likely for other customers, to see that they can stand on their quality for a good brand name. After all, my commitment over the past three yearspurchasing at least over 10 pairsdemonstrates my trust in their quality, a trust I'd love to see justified moving forward.

i work in healthcare, on my feet for 12 hours or more a day when i work and these shoes rubbed my feet and hurt the bottoms of my feet so bad. i've never had a shoe to do this before and this is my regular size, they fit amazing but if you're on your feet as much as i am, be aware. felt like they had no cushion in them at all after a couple hours my feet started hurting.

I was super excited for these shoes as they're rated #1 for medical field and service industry because as a nurse and bartender I'm on my feet all day. These shoes hurt so much. After an hour I have to take them off. They leave the side of my heels with blisters and very painful to walk. Very disappointing for how expensive they are.

I use the item for work in healthcare setting. I wanted to try something new since my bondi 7 started to fall apart. These are truly uncomfortable. Walking barefoot was the only option.

I have taken lots of time trying to strengthen my feet, because of the fact that I'm flat footed. Working in the restaurant industry It would be ideal for shorter shifts. Although I work at 3 twelves hour shifts and by the fourth hour my feet are hurting. So you can probably only imagine by the 11th hour what they feel like. No arch support whatsoever though.

I work on my feet all day long and shoe comfort is very important because I work at Dominos until late hours. You can imagine the intense tempo. I don't know if I chose the wrong model, but it did not provide me with this comfort, on the contrary, my feet were aching. And I bought it with my 2-day earnings, it was too much for my budget, but I wanted to buy it for comfort. I took the risk, I hope it was my fault. Since everyone prefers these shoes, they know the best.

I have been wearing Hoka's for well over ten years. I have recommended to many of my coworkers and vendors. So when I started a job needing non slip, I headed to the website and waited for them to be back in stock. They are the hardest most uncomfortable shoe I have ever owned. My feet and legs burn and ache during my shift and I can't wait to get them off.

High price and very uncomfortable

I stand for 12 hours for my work. My feet hurt and I have been using this for past one week.

Waaaay too heavy for me

The collar of the shoe is way too stiff, and actually created a bruise on my ankle.

This is my second pairs of this style and I thought It wouldn't happened again like my first one because this first pair I got the shoes broke in front side but I only wore it only for 6 months when it broken. At first while I'm walking it makes sounds and the sounds is so embarrassing while walking then it is the sign that the shoe is starting to torn apart. And now I have this second pair of this kind of style but it's making sounds again like the first one while I'm walking and wore this shoes, I'm scared what if while I'm wearing this shoes at work and get broken again and I feel embarrassed because it makes sound loudly

I bent down to tie one shoe, got up and the front was scuffed, after 2 weeks of having them. Like how? And the scratch is prominent, you can notice it. It's so bad. Such a waste! Ugh.. would opt for the more expensive fabric Hoka bonded.

I love Hoka shoes, including the original Bondi and Gaviota. I work as a nurse and I've worn Hokas for years so I decided to try these because of the leather. These are the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn! I was so disappointed. They gave me horrible foot, knee, and hip pain any time I worn them because the soles were so hard compared to the original. The tongue was also super rigid which dug into my ankle. I tried them for a couple weeks and couldn't stand them.

The heels totally wore through. Like there is white plastic showing through the black fabric inside. Hard plastic. It's too bad the quality of these shoes have gone downhill because they are my favorite. After only 4 months all the fabric on the heel was gone. I kept wearing the shoes anyway because I needed them for work. They fit really nice other than the raw bare plastic next to the top of my heal

We received a size 9W. I ordered a size 9M.

They are not comfortable with working activities. It was harmful to my feet .

Unfortunately I thought these shoes would be great for my job standing on my feet long hours, but after only 1 hour, my feet and hips were in pain. Had to wear them the very next day again, since I threw out my worn Danskos when I received the Hokas, and I could barely walk. They felt like I was walking with bricks on my feet. Sadly they are not the best comfort shoe for everyone I see now.

I ordered a pair of these in black and a pair in white for possible work shoes. The fit was right but they were so clunky and the tongue on the shoes was so stiff, I returned them for an exchange, which I'm still awaiting after returning 10 days ago. This company is lacking in the communication department, from what I've experienced with this order and past orders.

The shoes are too bulky, make loud squeaking sounds with each step, and provide less comfort than Chuck Taylors. So disappointed I wasted my money on these. Definitely a miss with design and quality.
