Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

Great cushion in the sole. Shoes run narrow in the toe for running shoes

Others hokas were great. These have short laces and the shoe feels thinner.

I have been a loyal Hoka customer for years. I had a pair of Bondi's that I use for walking and running. I purchased them in August of 2018 and the mesh is pulling off of the shoe on both shoes. I realize that they are older but I have not put that many miles on them and expected them to be higher quality. I contacted customer service and was offered a small discount on another pair but it seemed like it was not enough. I will be searching for another brand.

The Xtra wide are exactly what I needed, I am shoe size 8.5 4E, these fit perfect in that size. My main complaint is that your extra wide selection needs to add more shoe models, I would love more of the shoes you make to be available to me, for now I love the Bondi and would recommend to a fellow wide footed friend for a running shoe.

This is very difficult for me- a shoe that I love and works well but in which the workmanship or materials have let me down way too early. I have some significant podiatric problems and my podiatrist recommended the Bondi 7 as a shoe to cushion and stabilize my foot. That it has done very well and has been by far the most comfortable shoe I've owned in the past several years, allowing metro be on my feet far longer than other shoes. I've bought 3 pairs within 2 years. Sounds great so what's the issue? Sadly, way too early in the shoe life cycle, all the pairs have started to wear away at the cushioning at the top of the shoe on the inside of the ankle and one pair has a 2" separation of the shoe from the sole. While I expect shoes to wear out over time, my foot problems severely limit running and this has happened way too early. So how do you rate a shoe is my favorite but is expensive yet does not seem to have the materials or construction you would expect in such a product?

Product was used for walking and general use. From my experience the shoe is well constructed but I need a wide show to accommodate some severe bunions and these do not seem to work for me. They also feel a little stiff and not quite the wide toe box therefore was giving me a strained and tired walking experience. I came from wearing a pair of New Balance 840's which were very comfortable and has a wide toe box in the same size purchased, if you have something in this category I would reconsider. I chose not to recommend to a friend who would have the same foot construction and need as I do otherwise would recommend due to its stable and quality construction

I am sure this is a great shoe for some people. Too much cushion for me though. I returned them.

It's ok shoe

This bondi7 was a disappointment after how Bondi6 has brought unparallelled comfort to my achy feet after a 12-hr shift working as an RN. I have tried every recommended shoe and all that worked for me was the Bondi6. The cushion on the 7 is not at par with the 6. My feet started to ache after a 12-hr shift wesring the 7! Bondi6 hugs and rocks my legs to comfort which i havent experienced with any other shoes. I was expecting that 7 will be an upgrade but it wasnt! So i started looking everywhere for Bondi6 and can't find them anymore. Hoka, please get the Bondi6 feel on the 8! Now i need another pair of Bondi im hoping an 8 is in the making soon to be released! If you havent tried a 6 and had the 7, i guess u can say its really a good shoe , i'd say ill still recommend 7 to new customers .

Very frustrating

Cushioning is great! Only complaint is the back heel cup cushioning shifted, in less than a week of wearing it, and is now uncomfortable. I had 2 previous pairs of this model and the first pair this did not occur, the second only one sneaker has this now this pair both heels are doing it. Frustrating for the amount of money these shoes sell for. I'm thinking I might try a different sneakers next time.

I tried, I tried to love your shoe, but after several attempts and an irritating Fibula rub, I had to stop and return them. Mailed them back today 11/26/21 in exchange for a different paint with less material on the Fibula bone. Hope they work!
