Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi Slip Resistant

Best fitting & most comfort ever had in a shoe.

Have been wearing the shoes for about two weeks and must say, they are comfortable. Hopefully, they last for a long time before the material breaks down.

Wore the Bondi leather for three years, no serious issues. Now that Hoka ne ne has introduced the SR, and along with adding Lock Laces, I see several more years of good service from this new design. Thanks.

You should put this out for basketball officials! Amazing!

Love the leather

I have had foot pain for as long as I can remember and orthotics made for 400.00 with no relief . The all leather walking shoes is the best shoe I have ever worked in. I'm a nurse and on my feet twelve hours a day and I know pain. After wearing these for a few days my pain was gone and now I keep them on even after I get off work because they are a lifesaver and now have another pair as a back up because I don't want to take any chances that I would have to go without my HOKA leather shoes. Thank you HOKA. J. McDaniel RN

Great for walking

Very comfortable wearing them every day

The only thing I do not like is the shoelaces seem a bit short. It is difficult to tie a double knot so I often have to retire my shoes. The laces seem strong but not very thick.

great comfort for 12 + hours working on concrete. the all leather tops meets our company's safety program and they look great on top of all that

This shoe is worn at work, is extremely comfortable, like walking on clouds. My husband has to stand and walk for long periods sometimes with his job, and this is the most comfortable shoe he has found to wear. They don't look bad to wear with nice chinos and an oxford button down.

I am impressed with how comfortable these are. Excellent work shoe. I worked 12 plus hour shift in law enforcement and these withstand standing and walking. A must get.

Husband loves them. Loves they are all white leather. He has decreased back pain since wearing them. First pair we purchased last year was the bondi and he liked those too, just not fond of a grey shoe. Will definitely purchase more of this brand.

These shoes were a gift for my son. He seems to really like them. No complaints. Thank you.

Did you love the Bondi 6, but hate the Bondi 7 which lacked the plushness and toe room that you had enjoyed in the Bondi 6? Well, the good news is the Bondi SR is not built on the the Bondi 7 platform. Instead, the Bondi SR seems to have the older Bondi 6 chassis, which offers more toe room and cushioning. IMO, in spite of a different sole, it feels very much like the Bondi 6. In fact, out-of-the box, it feels great without requiring any of the usual leather shoe break-in period. Furthermore, because the uppers are made of water resistant leather, rather than cloth, I would expect greater durability. Along with the leather upper, the sole of being non-slip and non-squeak, makes the Bondi SR suitable for most work environments.

I have a foot injury and my podiatrist highly recommended I purchase a pair of these to aid in my recovery. They are pricy but they are incredibly soothing on my feet. I have custom orthotics that fit nicely in them as well. I would highly recommend this shoe if you're experiencing foot pain.

This show is very plush, and enough space/wide for your feet.

Like not slipping when I am walking in the rain.

Great for plantar fasciitis. Ankle does not twist as much when walking on uneven grass.

On my feet all day and these shoes keep my feet feeling fresh and relaxed. No more heel issues for me. So good I sent a pair to my Brother and now he won't wear anything else!

This pair is taking me a while to get use to them. They are a bit bulkier when compared to my old ones. However they are very comfortable

I have the leather Gaviota, and have been wearing it to work for the last year. It has held up better than I expected, and been a great shoe. Recently the calluses on my right heel split, and it got painful to put any weight on my foot. Thankfully I have a pair of Bondi 6's, and started wearing those to work. The extra cush was very helpful during the week it took to heal back. Since it had been a year on the leather Gaviota's, decided it was time for new pair, though I should note they are still in good shape and have lots of life left in them. Since I am on concrete pretty much all day, decided to try the Bondi Sr. as not only was it leather, but has an industrial non-slip sole as well, something the Gaviota didn't have. When they arrived, slipped out of the Bondi 6's, tried them on, and took a long walk in them. Yes, they are a bit different. I don't know if it is really possible to be more cush and more supportive at the same time, but that is what it feels like. I can tell the sole is firmer, grips the surface better, and it makes the shoe feel more stable, but at the same time the padding and cush from the Bondi 6 are not missing. They are every bit as comfortable and padded as the Bondi 6 if not maybe a bit more. I almost don't want to take them off when I get home. They are my new definition of the perfect work shoe. If I had one complaint, it's that I wish these were made in the same brown leather that the Gaviota's are.

I'm one of those you would call "essential workers" and I'm on my feet all the time - I have several pairs of hokas and I switch shoes everyday. This way I minimize wear and tear on my shoes as well as give my feet same-shoe breaks. I've tried all kinds of shoes and hokas are the only ones that can really give my feet the support it needs especially when working looooong hours. I do wish they offer more leather-athletic shoes since we are not allowed to wear anything else on the work room floor.
