Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Bought this as a present for my husband who realized he needed a proper walking shoe after experiencing sore feet and knees after spending 8 days walking around Portugal. He loves them! Says it's like walking on clouds.

I use these for everyday walking. I had reconstructive surgery done to my heel bone not to long ago. It's really hard to find shoes that won't irritate the heel bone. I've been wearing Brooks for years now and they do ok. However, the cushioning in these is far superior for my foot. I walked a lot on a recent road trip we took and my ankle was never sore like usual. My heel bone never hurt at all. These are fantastic and I will certainly buy more.

So I have foot problems and like to walk a lot. Not a good combination. That was until I purchased the Bondi 8 after a recommendation from a guy hiking the Appalachian Trail. These shoes have given me my life back. Buy these. You will not regret it and thank you Hoka.

Of my best purchases, I bought them for walking and the truth is very happy. super recommendable this style for walking

My feet are very comfortable during my workouts or just casual wear

This shoe is recommended by my podiatrist for my Plantar Fascitis heel pain. Perfect shoe for this condition. Can wear this shoe all day without having heel pain. Even with adding an orthotic to my other shoes I can't wear them all day pain free. I'm sure there are other shoes that can help with this condition but in verry satisfied with the Hoka Bondi 8

Shoes fit well husband loves them very comfortable a good purchase

These shoes are so comfortable; I'm 250 lbs, 6'2, with size 16 feet, so it is hard to find good shoes..These are great to walk and run in. I just got back from Italy, and wish I had these Hokas when I was there! Love em.

Wore the Clifton for 29 days. I needed more stability and my feet landed in a weird way due to the rocker seeming closer to my arch. A Hoka Rep suggested the Bondi which is perfect for me. The heal seems to extend closer to the heal. Also like the snug fitting ankle design which reduces heal slide up & down.

I had a pair of Bondi 7's that were great but the Bondi 8's are even better. I have very bad neuropathy in my feet and these shoes are a Godsend. They are cushiony but provide a very stable base which is important for my neuropathy. While comfortable they provide good support and feel like they are wrapping around my feet. I love these shoes.

I bought them for my husband who has had a hard time finding comfortable shoes for his flat feet. These are the most comfortable shoes he's ever worn! Well worth the money!

Overall satisfied, developed a noticeable squeak on each shoe with each step. Have only had about a month or so.

The shoes feel tight and I can't use my orthotics also the right shoe rubs on my Achilles so I can only wear half a day. They do feel good walking at first but this only lasts about half a day.

I'm on my third pair of HOKA Shoes. Amazing product for someone that stands on their feet for long periods of time. Once I started wearing HOKAs the pain in my legs and feet totally diminished. HOKAs have totally changed my life and for this I'm eternally grateful.

Ever since I fell 18 feet off a ladder and shattered my left heel. 14 screws and metal tape to hold all the little pieces together in 2016. I be gone through two pairs of Hokas. The doctors told me it would be a year before I could walk correctly. In 5 months I went back to work in a pair of Hokas. I recommend these shoes to everyone.

I wear my Hokas everyday. I have 2 pairs of Bondi 8 and 1pair of Clifton 9. When I am pounding the pavement on walks, Hokas lessen the stress on my knee joints. When I lace them up, they fit comfortably and securely on my feet which helps to prevent tripping and or stumbling. Best fitting sport shoes.

If you wanna feel like walking effortlessly this is the one for you. If you are a regular outdoor or indoor jogger this is the one for you. Certainly makes one proud of wearing it. Your feet will thank you for the Bondi 8.

This is the most comfortable pair of shoes I ever bought. I am buying a pair for my son and daughter in law.

Hoka Bondi 8 - I've never felt as good walking any time in my 72 years. The only negative is one shoe lace is a bit too small.

Very colorful, supportive and Comfortable. Kinda pricey, we'll how long they last

Hoka has it dialed in. This shoe feels amazing. I've tried other brands and the Bondi 8 series is great for long walks and standing hours on end. Working in hospitality keeps me moving for hours. This is the shoe to buy. My knees and ankles aren't sore at the end of the day. I feel GREAT. The wide sole gives me balance and stability while providing a nice cloud cushion of air in every step. I'm HOKA for LIFE! Thanks for making a really good product.

Walking on marshmallows is how I feel walking with the Bondi 8. They're the best shoe I've found for providing a gentle cushioning as I walk on concrete for miles. This allows my aging body to stay fit. The color is electric water blue, my favorite shoe color yet. They are conversations starters, as people notice them, and then say how much they love Hokas for running.

The shoes feel great very light and like I'm walking on air.

my feet are pretty flat, with poor arches, but not wide. the bondi 8s (as well as the 7s) came with insoles that are very thin and "sharp", for lack of a better word, *around the middle on the inside.* hello, chafing, hello, edge blisters. blister pads / replacing the insoles solves this problem, but i feel i should expect better from this company, and at this price. so a slight warning to anyone who may share this issue -- it's not you -- it's them. to my slight surprise, there are actually several threads online where this exact issue is addressed.
