I've had 2 previous bondi 6 and they were like walking on clouds. I told friends & family to buy them. I bought a pair of bondi 7 today and as soon as I put them on I could tell there wasn't the bondi 6 cushion. I'm so disappointed as I love the 6's cushioning, but my brand new bondi 7 will be returned tomorrow. Come on Hoka, get back to the cushioning everyone loved. Stinks cause I need new sneakers and count on the pillow feel that Hoka used to have.

The shoe is comfortable but not as good as my foot needs. I bought wide but these are a bit narrow and hurts my feet after walking for awhile. I don't feel it's sturdy enough either nor cover or even reach the ankle area. I would suggest others to do more research before purchasing because it's a lot of money for a shoe not to fit right. I'm past month 30days so no one to help me with my issue.

The toe box is way too tight for my 72-year-old foot. Going for two 45-minute walks damaged my middle toe, and it's been a week, and it still hurts. I had this same problem with the Bondi 6, but bought Bondi 7 because I'd hoped that the manufacturer would have realized it's a problem, but evidently there's been no change.

Very cushiony and comfortable.
However, the Hoka return/exchange process is terrible.

These Bondi 7's have nice thick soles and excellent breathability. However, at 9.5D they are a bit too wide for my feet, so don't offer as much support as I'd like.

Fit was good. Material is not that great. Fabric at heel was of low quality and wore out faster than expected. Not happy with this purchase.

Very well made product. Fit was true and accurate. Less cushiony than I thought it would be.

Shoes very comfortable to wear. I have some pronation, so need stable heel. These were not stable on my first run. Also had a few blisters. I always rotate 5 pairs of shoes, so I am used to several different brands. Never had this with any others I have run with.

I purchased the Bondi. Great for plantar fasciitis. However, I wear a 10B in a shoe. These sneakers are cut so narrow,I couldn't even fit in a 2EE. I'm now wearing 4EE in width. If you wear a C or a D in a shoe, you might have problems with the width on these sneakers.
Also, a size 10 did not fit. I had to move up to an 11.5. These sneakers are definitely not true to size.

I liked the shoe, but it didn't accommodate my orthotics. Not a deep enough shoe for my needs.

This shoe may be the ugliest shoe on the planet…also the most comfortable.

I wanted to love the Hoka shoes. I've heard great things about these shoes from runners everywhere. Unfortunately, the arch doesn't feel right. The width was probably close to other 4E width shoes but the arch section cuts small on hoka shoes. This causes a problem when my arch lands. I'm sure they are great shoes, but not for me.

I normally wear Brooks Adrenalines but wanted to give a different shoe a try for my next training cycle. Although I purchased a EE in the Bondis, they still cramped my toe box and I came home with blisters between my toes, after my first run. The ride is very cushy though and I do plan on keeping them just to see if I can ride it out. As a note, I also purchased a pair of Adrenalines and am loving those sneakers. I have run a total of about 25 miles in the Adrenalines with no issues so far.

I tried them out for a few days on walks and the shoes aggravated my Plantar fasciitis.

Wear them primarily for work. I'm already struggling with plantar fasciitis, so perhaps I was expecting a miracle. I was hoping for a sublime level of comfort. That hasn't been my experience.
Not sure if it's the answer for me.

The sneakers are the most comfortable I e ever worn, however, the outsoles wore down far too quickly. It's back to Reebok forever floatride.

Just could not get a shoe wide enough, according to the chart and my measurements the 6x width should have been wide enough but noo..

Had to return my shoes, they did not fit properly. I do a lot of walking on my job and the shoe seemed to be very well-built it was comfortable to start with but after about three or four hours they started to affect my arches and made them ache so I returned the shoe with no problem and received a full refund .

To much money for a shoe without any material quality in the upper part of shoe. Shoe is soft and comfortable not sure how long they will last

Shoe is one of most comfortable sneakers I have ever bought. Have very bad back and Bondi allows me to stand/walk/be involved in life much longer. Because of this bought 5 pairs.
Would have given 5 stars if not for the colored band around sole of shoe is flaking off color on less than month of wearing the shoe. On black and white sneaker white streets of flaked off color stand out. Hopefully the other pairs hold up better.
