I bought these for.my husband's birthday. He loves Bondi 8. I was so excited for the sale and bought 2 pair for him. They are great for walking. We walk 2.5 miles a day.

This is my 3rd pair of Bondi 8! Have helped with my Plantar faciatis however the material on the inside of heel part of shoe has worn in 6 months on the other pairs I've worn! Wanted a Blue pair not orange and blue to find out Hoka not making 8 anymore?Sad to say the Bondi 9 did not fit as well as 8 foot my feet!

I bought these shoes and they began to fall apart. I had seen that this is an issue with these shoes and hoka was accepting returns and exchanges so I sent them back. I waited a couple of weeks and when I called they claimed they had lost them in the warehouse and "opened a claim". I was supposed to hear back working 5 days and when I didn't I contacted them. They state the shoes were deliver back to me and the claim was denied for wear and tear. They fabric was falling apart from the same defect many others experienced. HOKA DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR WARRANTY. Now they claimed they shipped them to me and I'm out of luck. Not only did they deny an exchange but they re refusing to refund me on shoes they lost.

I've worn many different brands of athletic shoes over the years. I can honestly say that the HOKA Bondi 8 is without a doubt "the most comfortable shoe" I've ever owned!!! I wear a Size 16 which presents a challenge itself in finding comfortable shoes. I happened across the Bondi 8 and to say that I have been "more than pleased" with my purchase is an understatement! Great fit, very soft comfort combine to give me a great walking experience!!!

After 4 months and hardly wearing these the cushion under the right heel collapsed. I was told this was not covered under warranty. this is my first and last pair of Hoka shoes.

I like the shoes. My feet have taken a beating over the years and usually need additional arch support. I'll may add some to these also, but they are close to what I need. I'll wear them awhile before I decide. They have excellent cushioning that I really like. I'd definitely buy them again.

I had my shoes for about 6 months and only wore them a few times. Definitely not daily drivers or even using them for running. I got them because my knees are not the best. The bottom tread popped off while I was walking and it was causing me to trip so I super glued it so I could get home and noticed more of the tread coming off. Keep in mind, I've barely even worn these at all. They supposedly have a year warranty but when I reached out they denied it because of the glue I used. Total rip off. I do not recommend getting any of these shoes. Way too expensive for something that is made this poorly and a terrible warranty policy is the final nail in the coffin.

Felt like the shoes were uneven. Never felt this before; then wore them to break em in, have never had so much sciatica pain. Or ever before. Maybe not for me but running in em wasn't comfy, I wouldn't reccomend this brand

I have RA and neuropathy iin my feet and these are a very comfortable pair of shoes. You can feel the support areas right from the time you put them on. I would recommend these shoes to anyone with or without foot problems.

These shoes are some of the worst I've ever worn. I heard several people talk about how great these shoes are, but they're wrong. I would give them an okay score for walking short distances, but they are SO bad for standing it is irrelevant.
For the first 4000 steps a day, I've consistently felt they were 'breaking in' but after that (11k to 26k more per day) I might as well be wearing rocks. They have caused one of my ankles to be black from bruising from the amount of limping they have caused. For comparison, I've worn boots and dress shoes for longer periods without this much pain.
I strongly believe this brand is just another trendy scam and would look elsewhere.

I have three pair of Bondi that fit great and feel great on my feet. I have been diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and these Bondi feel better than the custom orthotics I've gotten. I have a pair of gray, solid black, and solid white (the last I wear everyday, the others for semi dressed up). I would love a pair of tan/brown, but when I tried to order one, they did not look good - my wife said they looked girly. I've seen the color(s) I want in other Hoka shoes, but why can't we get that in Bondi? I'm not a young person, so I don't wear the flamboyant colors, especially with shorts.
