Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

Use for running Doesn't have the extra cushioning that my previous shoe had on the Bondi 7 I loved the pillow soft cushioning of the previous version Please go back to the plush cushioning version

Bought the Wide Bondi 7's hoping they would give me enough width but they were only marginally wider than the standard sizes. Barely any noticeable difference. Really wish Hoka would come out with more color options for the Extra-Wide Bondi 7 as the two options now are very dull (gray and all-black).

over priced but still a good shoe

While I've only worn these new HOKAs a few times to date, I can clearly feel a difference when returning to other brands that I alternate with. I find these to be very light and comfortable. Over time, I'll have to decide if the price premium for these is worth it, but that will take several months, if not a year or more, as that's the average length of time I usually have between new sneakers.

Only thing wrong is where my heel is the fabric on the inside has already tore

Walking. 4E should have wider toe box

I had 3 toes partially amputated and needed a comfortable shoe. My podiatrist recommended these and they are very comfortable and ease the pain substantially.

So this is my second pair of Hoka's. I liked the first pair I ordered another, so I could keep one pair clean. A little disappointed that there is a section in the new pair that feels rough where it is stitched - uncomfortable. However otherwise good.

I purchased the bondi 7s for work since I stand for 8+ hours a day. They looked pretty good online. I received them today and they feel fine. Coming out of my work shoes with some fatigue, I could barely feel that in these. Great shoes. The styling is just a little too different for my taste. The sole is essentially a bulky platform that reminds me more of the sketchers shape ups. Not really a good work/casual shoe for younger guys looking for a sleek silhouette unless you like that style. I would definitely try to find a local retailer to see the Hoka lineup in person if it's possible. Sending these back. Again, great shoe, great comfort but the sole is polarizing and I'm not a fan. I would recommend these to someone that is using them for running with joint issues or prefers function over form.

These are my everything shoe since an accident and surgery on my foot, I need the soft sole and these are great!

The shoes are great for my knee and IT band issues that I have had with other shoes. I am somewhat prone to knee pain, but since I started running in Hoka's (30 or so miles per week), I have rarely had any knee pain. The one thing about Hoka's is sometimes they have quality issues where the fabric rips away from the sole - I have experienced this with 3 pair. One pair started to separate in less than a month and I was able to return them to the retailer. The last time it was 3 or 4 months in and I returned them to Hoka and they sent me a new pair - the new pair after a month and a half seems to be holding up - we will see if they hold up.

Needed extra room in toe area

love Bondi 7's.

I love my Bondi 7's. I've had a dozen pair of the 6's and 7's (at least). They fit great, are true to size and wonderfully cushioned. My only issue with them is that the cushioning wears down too quickly. after about 100 miles of walking the plushness starts to degrade long before the soles are remotely close to wearing out. If Hoka could fix this one problem I would give them a 5 star rating.

These shoes are amazingly comfortable. Had heard from friends how comfortable they were but they still exceeded my expectations. Only negative is that they are quite pricey

These shoes are great, I was having a lot of foot pain with other brands but now all the Pain is gone, feet feel great. The only problem is the inside of the shoes has ripped a little at the heel.

I mostly wear a different brand,but over the years I have bought 4 pair of hokas,and every pair,the build quality has been superb,including the Bondi 7.the upper is comfortable,as always,but like always,the cushion is overrated but still good overall.I expect better cushion from all the hype,I have the bondi 7 wide,my left midfoot is flat and wide,so the top rim of the last digs in to my inner arch.The insole doesnt provide enuff protection from it.I had the same problem with the clifton 7,witch I took back,and Altra shoes that have gotten more narrow over the years.I still have the bondi 7,as I want them to work so badly. If hoka would make a straight last,take out the curve by the arch,the shoe would be almost perfect.

I use the product for walking. They have good cushioning, however the right shoe's insole seems to be a little abrasive not as comfortable as the left shoe. For the money I spent, I believe my sketchers are just as comfortable and for quite a lower price. My wife loves them me? they are ok.
