Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Just got my BONDI 8s today and talk about floating on a Magic carpet, glad I finally purchased my first pair. 10 hours on them today my feet and legs feel wonderful :) will be buying more depending how long they last.

Walked 26 miles in 2 days in the Hoka Bondi 8 and was pleasantly amazed what a fantastic product this is. I had no foot , knee, hip or back pain at all after walking 26 miles over 2 days . I broke a bone in my foot at beginning of year and wanted to be sure I had a sneaker with great support , this sneaker was fantastic support .

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Give us more colors in wide 4E. I feel like Hoka is leaving out the wide footed family. Love the new colors but cmon!! I'm a HUGE Fan of the Bondi's BTW

This particular shoe was recommended to me by my Primary Care Doctor as being the one he uses and would provide relief for the issues that I was having with sore back muscles. I walk on my treadmill every morning and I am very pleased with these shoes and the effect they have had on my back and neck muscles.

At first I was skeptical because of the price but it was money well spent. The day that I put these on for my first jog I didn't have any leg pain or foot soreness. I was impressed and purchased a different pair for my wife.

Everyday shoe for work

I found the sharkskin looks exactly as pictured, it's specs lined up perfect for me: someone who hasn't been walking or running in several years, is on their feet constantly at work and with misc activities. I wear these to theme parks, malls, on long walks, variety of events where I gotta stand for long periods of time. By far the most comfort I've felt. I don't think my other shoes had arch support. It encourages me to want to walk, run, get another pair. I treat them like the fashionable minimalist kid treats his new balances, with an athletic spin, also looks like a yeezy 380 hybrid as well considering the mass of foam you're standing on. It's right where I think it should be. I love the added height as well never thought I'd say that. Might get colorful and become a Hoka enthusiast overnight tbh. I talk about them constantly. My dunks and AJ1s are collecting dust.

These shoes have a great bounce when I run up and down a basketball foor as a high school official. Very light and yet great cushion. Legs don't get tired. Knees and hips don't hurt.

Nice shoes

Excellent shoe! I have a wide foot and it fits perfect!

These really comfortable shoes. I have some numbness in my feet so I wear these in the house and they are so comfortable!!!!

These are The most comfortable sneakers that I have purchased in a long time. Highly recommended!

First pair, and they're very comfortable!! I haven't bought a pair of sneakers in years that actually have a arch support inside!! Didn't think they made it anymore.

I bought my first HOKA shoes in Oslo Norway while visiting family, and after months of my sisters telling me I needed HOKA. I was very qickly won over and convinced these shoes were for me. After returning home to the U.S., I ordered another pair of HOKA shoes. These two pair of shoes are the most comfortable shoes I ever remember wearing. I have painful foot neuropathy, but I forget about the pain as soon as I put on my new shoes. Thank you to my sisters and others who convinced me to buy these shoes, and thank you HOKA.

I have loved Hokas for years and I kept telling my husband he needs to try them but he never would! Well he is a mechanic and he stands on hard concrete all day long and He needed a new pair of work shoes but he normally wears sketchers! So he asked me to order him a pair of sketchers and he was trying something different, (because his feet are killing him like always) I tried to tell him again about Hokas but he said no! So he got his new sketchers in and after one week he said ok baby I'll try the Hokas! I ordered him the black Bondi 8 and he wore them one day to work and came home and said he would never buy any other shoe again! Lol! He said I should have listened to you a long time ago baby! These are the best shoes he has ever owned and worth the money to make his feet and back feel better!

This is my second pair of Hokas and I so far throughly enjoy the extensive cushioning effect on impact with any surface. Three years ago, I had a two level spinal fusion and want to avoid adjacent segment syndrome, the inevitable consequence of altering the physics of supplanting two vertebrae and two discs with a new solid single bone (grown internally from implanted bone grafts from a hip bone). So far, I believe the Hokas help diminish the effect of shifting stresses to other vertebrae above and below the removed vertebrae.

I have been buying these shoes for the last three years. They continue to be the best year after year.

I ref basketball and have pretty severe heel pain. Would not be able to get the job done without em. Great shoes, have been using them for years.

I use them for walking right now.

Gym and everyday. Next pair I will buy regular width instead of wide

First of all, I am not a runner, but have worn cushioned running for years for walking and when I am on my feet. The brand I wore previously changed and the new cushioned model was too narrow in the forefoot and toe box. I researched shoes and read good things about Hoka, so decided to give them a try. Thanks to Hoka's 30 try policy, I was able to try a couple of pair until I found the perfect shoe. The cushioning is superb, with plenty of room for my orthotics. The Bondi 8 is my new favorite shoe.
