I purchased the HOKA Bondi SRs less than 5 months ago and was very disappointed with the quality. The material broke down quickly, and the platform inside the shoe was poorly built, every time I stepped in, my foot tilted forward to the right, making it difficult to stay in balance.
I reported this issue with photos, but my warranty claim was denied and classified as "general wear and tear." For a premium shoe brand, I expected both durability and stronger customer support, especially since this feels more like a structural defect than normal use.
I hope HOKA takes this feedback seriously, as I trusted this brand for quality and durability.

I use this for work standing 8-10 hours per day. It's the most comfortable shoe I've ever had.

As a UPS driver, I work 10-12 hours a day. Walking around 50 miles a week. No more pain on my feet & helps out on my knees. Shoes are a must!

They feel good when you first put them on. I work in a kitchen and by the time I get off my feet really hurt so bad that I can barely walk to my car. My sketchers slip resistant feel better than these shoes. I really had high hopes for these shoes. My foot is sore on the opposite side of my arch.

I love the looks and comfort these shoes provide. They are great for walking and standing for long periods of time just as advertised. Unfortunately, the top is completely made of plastic, so there is no air pass through. This makes them incredibly hot to wear, especially in the sun. Even if you're not out for a long time. I love these and it pains me to have to return them, but they are just too hot. I hope I can find something similar that breathes.

These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Hoka says they are their most cushioned shoe. I use them when refereeing water polo - walking back and forth on concrete pool decks for hours at a time. They last a long time, too! I'm submitting this from the Hoka site where I'm ordering another pair for everyday use and recreational walking.

I work for 10 hour days on my feet for all of those hours of the day. These shoes are incredible super comfortable and your feet don't feel so sore the next day. No more bodyaches in the morning.

Hoka M is closer to W. I have narrow feet and few manufacturers make N widths (New Balance and Brooks). I swim in Hoka Ms. In addition, the heel of Hokas is tall, in comparison to other manufacturers. I kept this, hoping to get used to it, but I could not.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance, Brooks, some styles of Kiziks

I am a high school football official and this is my third season wearing the Hoka Bondi SR exclusively. Most schools near me have gone to turf. I need a wider shoe and most turf shoes are built for narrower feet. I also want a leather upper so that when (not if) I get stepped on there is some protection vs. just a mesh toe box. I have had no issues with slipping on turf or grass. They are incredibly comfortable and supportive and are wonderful to run in in case your football game turns into a 60-54 track meet. I really like the black on black as my state (as most states) have a black shoe policy. You can get away with white logos or a white sole, but that is a pain to clean. This shoe cleans up well and with a quick run over with an ArmorAll wipe (yes, that is how we clean our shoes) you are looking good.
I will say that they are not good on a muddy field. The limited tread can get clogged and cause major slipping. Most officials keep a pair of "mudders" in their trunk anyway.
I highly recommend this shoe for officials. It is the perfect balance between protection and performance, form and function.

I walk 12 miles a day on average, mostly on pavement, some grass and other surfaces, so it's very tough on shoes. I think I got these in March or April, so that's over 1k miles on a pair of shoes, I was hoping to get another couple months. The exterior of the shoe and the sole have held up fairly well, but the collar started coming apart the first month and they've become painfully unbearable at this point. Perhaps a redesign with a leather interior or something? Seems to be what actually lasts in shoes I've had for a while. But I can't buy shoes every four months, six is bad enough. They were pretty comfortable, I'm not a fan of the high stack but a dr recommended them so I gave it a shot. Also, I had to order a half size up fwiw. If you work inside and don't have to take your shoes off 10 times a day to get sticks and rocks out, they would probably do really well.

My co workers spoke so highly of this shoe and at first I did enjoy it but after 2 days of wearing them all they do is squeak. I work in two different hospitals so I have really long days and all I hear is squeak squeak squeak. For such an expensive shoe I didn't think I would sound like I've been walking in water daily.

I use my SR's for work and play.
These are great for my job ( medical ) and play ( outdoor and nightlife ) ...I Love the style , looks are beautiful in looks and have that slip resistance in them that makes sure you have a feel for footprint.

I wore out my Clifton 9 shoes that I loved and replaced them with the Bondi SR because they say its the plushest shoe they make and I wanted the leather shoe for easy cleaning. After the first 3 miles the bottom of my heal hurt so bad I thought I would get a blister. The next day I use my old Clifton 9 shoes and walked 5 miles with no problem. Every time I walk with the SR my heel starts hurting again. Maybe they need break-in time but the Clifton 9 was plush and amazing the very first time I wore them
Disappointed,

These were the biggest wast of money I've ever spent on shoes at first they were uncomfortable but after I finally broke them in after a few weeks of constant use at work but after breaking them in they started falling apart it could be argued that I use them excessively at work buts that what they're for to use constantly at work I was so disappointed in these shoes I expected so much more from shoes that were nearly $200

Shoes hug my feet inside. I love that feel. Cushioning is superb and that's good cause I'm on hard laminated flooring all day as CNA at nursing home. Foot rolls through each step very well. Slip resistance excellent. They weigh more than running shoes but not heavy feeling. I would purchase these again.

I have plantar fascaitis and tendinitis. I have to walk on concrete floors all day at work. These shoes have changed my life. I can wear them all day and not have pain when I get off. Because my feet are not taking so much of a beating, they don't hurt as much when I wake the next morning. These are probably gonna be the only shoes I wear to work from now on.
