Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

I bought these shoes for everyday use. The cushion when walking feels great. I bought extra wide and always get a half size larger than I need so I can put my inserts in. These shoes were too small to do that so I just wore them without. I think they must still be too narrow because they make my big toe at the widest part of my foot cramp.

I use the product for daily jogging, I like nearly everything about it especially the padding. I liked New Balance version of waterproofing on their Fresh Foam More V2 product, in addition to their highly shaped styling.

Too uncomfortable. Caused feet to hurt after walking fur an hour

Heel cup has a weak support. Not to the level of running shoe was expecting.

NOT SURE YET. HAVE BEEN WEARING BROOKS AND NEW BALANCE WALKING SHOES FOR YEARS. I AVERAGE 10 MILES/DAY AND HAVE ALMOST 40,000 MILES IN THE BANK OVER THE PAST 15 YEARS. BOTTOM LINE: HOKA ARCH CONSTRUCTION FEELS DIFFERENT, AND I AM HAVING TROUBLE ADJUSTING. AM CONTINUING A BREAKING-IN PERIOD BEFORE I TAKE THEM ON A 10 MILER. I DON'T WANT THEM TO AGGRIVATE MY PLANTAR FASCIATIS.

Very comfortable, but in 5 months the shoes started hurting me. I am not a runner. Just wore them for daily wear.

They run a bit narrow and look like platforms. . I wish they had more color options in extra wide.

Not any better than New Balance I have worn for 20 years

Average , doesn't live up to the hype

I've had bad luck with the Bondi's. I've had two pairs come apart which I think is not uncommon. Padding is obviously very plush. I've now moved to a Wide but unfortunately they are a little too big, so just snake bit personally, it happens.

They are not near as comfortable as Bondi 6 but those are long gone! So I have to go with-it

Not really sure how I feel yet about this shoe, they are comfortable walking shoe. But it seems really narrow and I ordered the extra wide for my big feet, but I'm gonna break them in and hopefully it's a purchase I won't regret. Fingers crossed

I play Pickleball about 9 hours a week. I play hard, but have only been wearing them less than a month and they are starting to come apart on the soles.

Shoes are comfortable for all day wear, but right shoe has a squeak near toes. I assume it's a defect in this one shoe since left shoe doesn't squeak.

To tight and hot when you work with it 12 hours

Not any better than shoes for $75

I bought these on the internet. If I had tried them on in a store I probably would not have taken them. There was something about the right shoe that put a lot of pressure on the front of my arch. After a couple of runs, it was not going away. In fact, it bruised my arch and became more painful each time. So after a few runs I decided to return them. The return / refund process was smooth. The heel and sole of the shoe were fine. Sometimes you just have to try shoes on in person. I may try one of the other models to see if the arch fits better.

I had to send my first pair back as being too tight in the toe box. I replaced it with a "prettier" color combo and wider (same size though). Fits much better, been wearing them everyday, walking is quite a bit less painful. So the replacement would get 4-5 stars.
