Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I have been Wearing HOKA Bondi for about 15-20 years and would not change for anything. I tell all my friends and family to give them a try and they won't be sorry!

Hokas are AMAZING! Life changing! I constantly recommend them! HoweverI've noticed that their durability HAS gone down and the Bondis that nurses love don't have as much bounce and shock absorption as they used to. And Bondis sizes have changed. You can't just order the last size you bought. You have to go in somewhere and try them on and probably buy a whole size bigger, or in men's because they are narrower in the toe and heal and straight up shorter. This time I bought Hokas I had 2 orders be wrong because of sizing. I gave up and bought from a local distributor. And even though they don't last as long as they used to and they're not as bouncy, they're still the best shoe out there. But if Hoka isn't careful about cutting costs or whatever they're doing, someone else could come along and dethrone the king!

Smaller in length and a little bit tighter than other Bondi's. Hopefully they will stretch out a bit. I'm overall happier with the Bondi 7. Also just bought the Skyward X that I am happy with. I not sure how you have changed the Bondi line but I have around 25-30 Bondi 7's so I think I can give a fair comparison.

I bought these shoes for walking and running to upgrade from my tried and true Brooks- BIG mistake. I haven't had shin splints since dancing on concrete in high school over 10 years ago and now they've come back upon using these shoes. Stopped wearing them and the problems improved. Tried them one more time and instantly the pain came back. I wanted to love them, but I can not deal with this pain as I love to workout and be active. Bummer.

May be the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn

I always purchase the wide size, but I was sent the normal size.

Hoka Bondi is the absolute BEST shoe for plantar fasciitis or anyone that needs extra arch support. I also have orthopedic insoles from my podiatrist that I insert (after removing the factory sole) that fit nicely and provide the ultimate support. I am a firefighter and over 13+ years I have developed plantar fasciitis. These shoes are by far the best for my ailment and well worth the extra cost.

The shoes fit great, cushioning is awesome, very sturdy, no slippage in the rain is an added bonus.

These shoes have stopped my osteoarthritis knee pain

OMG without a doubt the MOST AMAZING shoes I e EVER worn!!! I immediately ordered a pair for work!! About double the price I'm accustomed to paying for shoes but worth every penny and then some!!!

I am a 76 year old man and I walk between 3 and 4 miles a day. These shoes have made all the difference.

The shoe feels great. Very plush. My feet were hurting with my old shoes. No more pain with these!

Snug fit, great stability, and superior cushion.

I would buy this product again, its an excellent product

This shoe is not comfortable as compare to other HOKA products

Second pair I have bought. One for work, slip resistant, and a pair for home. Love them! Have helped tremendously with my plantar fasciitis! Highly recommend!

I purchased the Bondi for walking but it has helped my feet so much with the relief of pain. Definitely buying again.

the all black bondi 8 is used as an everyday work shoe for my all day comfort -i believe in it enough to give a pair to my son to put into his routine

I enjoy walking long distances. This footwear offers comfort and great arch support and and. extremely light weight.

My wife was gifted a pair more than a year ago and I was hesitant to get a pair for me because they are not cheap. She convinced me that it was worth it so I got a pair. I am standing most of the day and these shoes changed my day in a very positive way. The are confortable not only because of the cushioning they offer in the sole, but never feel tight in the instep or the sides of the foot. In terms of look, they look really nice and well built. They are worth every penny.

As with all my Hokas (I currently have 14 pair) my newest Bondi 8 are fabulous! I wear my Hokas every day. They are so comfortable and keep a spring in my step. I love all the colors too!

The comfort is real.

The product was returned because it was too tight, in contrast to existing pairs that I have of the same size

I knew how good these shoes were immediately as they got on my feet.

I've been a Hoka wearer for about 3 years and I've only bought the Clifton 8 or Clifton 9 model. But I recently bought the Bondi 8 and I'm mad at myself for not buying them sooner. They are so comfortable and can be dressed down to train/run in or to wear them as a nice casual shoe for a night out.
