It is a very comfortable walking shoe. It comes in very stylish colors.

I bought these hoping they would be better than my current set of brooks and I was wrong. I have got more blisters and black pain than ever before. I and returning and sticking with brooks.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
Runs NarrowRuns Wide
Poor SupportGreat Support
I have a wide foot. I bought these shoes and they are adorable. However after wearing a bit they started to hurt my feet because they are at least a full size narrower. I have bunions and sadly I can only tolerate them for a while before they start to make my feet ache. I think if the toebox was wider and matched their sizing as advertised, they would be comfortable. Sadly can't return them because I wore them already....

I'm a Hoka fan, this time Bondi 8 is what I'm looking for. This time not that soft but in the other way it brings that security and stability that other Bondi version was missing. Congrats great shoe

Bondi 8 cushion is great and color selection superb. The stitching on the Bondi 7 around the sides and the ankle area is stable leaves no wiggle room . The workmanship is better.

Fit based in True Fit on the Hoka website was misleading. I felt confident in their comparing the New Balanced shoes and sizes to the Hoka sizing but found the fit too tight to wear athletic socks. So, I had to buy all new dress socks that are thinner. Getting used to the more cushiony structure has caused some foot pain in adapting.

I'm actually a women's size 8 but since I have a wide foot I can wear a men's shoe as well. I have an extensive shoe collection, lots of brands, most all of them are a standard width women's size 8. A wide width isn't necessary but if I am running in them or have the comfort expectation of an expensive tennis shoe, then I expect it to deliver. I ordered this men's shoe and read in several places that this is a wider fitting shoe that Hoka makes. Wrong. No room in the toe box on these whatsover. I returned them. If you don't need the space or have a narrow foot you will probably love this shoe but don't order it thinking you will be able to wiggle your toes. (FYI a women's standard width is a B and men's is a D)

Wonderful wearing the Bondi 8. I have plantar fasciatis and need extra cushioning for my feet. Hoka does the job!

These feel great on your feet. Will put some spring in your step. My girlfriend is a devotee of this brand so I had to try them. Unfortunately, I ordered black/black but what I got had dark blue fabric. That wouldn't work for what I needed them for. Also, had some issues with traction on wet surfaces (supermarket floor after a light rain). Probably just me. I may try the hiking version which has Vibram soles.

True Fit on the website compared my current size New Balance shoes and recommended a size for Hoka. The shoes fit too tight and I cannot wear athletic socks as I do with Bew Balance. I had to buy new dress socks that are thinner to improve the fit.

I buy these shoes because a spend a lot of time on my feet and have trouble finding shoes that are wide enough for me. They are very light weight and well cushioned so that I can walk for hours and not feel any pair or soreness. But I have had to replace several pairs while still under warrantee. the inner lining at the heel wears out very quickly and the soles also wear down fast. I would recoomend them, but with a warning.

Switched from Brooks to Hoka after hearing my brother rave about how great Hoka shoes are. I have foot and tendon issues. Shoes were great up until they literally started falling apart. The rubber on the bottom of the tread completely fell off for one part. Sadly bought at scheels and they were unwilling to do an exchange.

I purchased Bondi 8 men's shoes. Shoes are Great, but the shoe laces are 2 different sizes one is 48 inches and the other is 52. Not a huge difference, but the 52 inch one has to be double tied since it is too long. I have spoken to at least 3 Hoka representatives and each have been very nice but they have not been able to come up with a solution on replacing them. The shoe I purchased is out of stock so I can't exchange it for another pair. The one representative sent me a link to for me to purchase which was nice but I don't believe I should have to purchase new ones. I don't understand why Hoka can't just take 48 inch pair of laces out of a different shoe with with the same color laces as mine and ship them to me.
Sure didn't think it would be this hard to get the laces replaced.

This is my 4th pair of Hokas. Comfortable and well made shoes.
Only negative is customer service. Ordered 1 pair in my size and received 3 pairs in size 10 and 12. Not sure what happens in the shipping department

I am 78 years old and I purchased the Bondi 8 for my daily 2 mile walk. It is the most comfortable shoe I have ever used for my walks. I jogged for 45 years and wore running shoes then. They are typically not best for fast walking. These work great. Thanks HOKA

I have plantar fasciitis in my foot and had trouble walking during the day. I had a friend recommend Hoka shoes and I decided to give it a try before I head to the doctor. I ordered Bondi 8 shoes and I began to experience relief within the first hour or so. These shoes are very supportive and I feel like I can go walking again. I will buy more shoes and you could say that I am hooked!

Cushion is amazing from heel to toe. Great stability while walking, but my only gripe is around the upper part it's extremely narrow. Normally I wear the Gaviota but wanted to try the Bondi.

Comfort level is top shelf. Durability as a day to day wear is not up to price point.
Mind you I walk 10 miles everyday no matter the weather for work
