Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Largely love the shoes. They're comfy and runs well, but a bit tight in a forefoot.

The reason i didn't give it five stars is haven't had this product long enough but they are very comfortable the few times I have worn them seems like a great product and I'm very satisfied so far

Very pleased will be buying more.

I bought a pair of Hoka's for my husband' birthday; will return since the toe box wasn't roomy enough. He has plantar fasciitis and did like the support of the shoe. He normally wears a 9.5 - I ordered a 10 but still didn't work.

This is my first pair of Hoka's and they feel very comfortable .I bought these because of a problem I have with Morton's neuromas . I got positive feedback from several people wearing these "weird shoes." My main reason for the order was that they have extra wide shoes . In the past I have only worn Asics shoes, which are generally narrow. Before the Hokas I have run 15 marathons and many 10K's. My exercise now comes from swimming laps. The Hokas have left me without any neuroma pain for the last 2 weeks which is a blessing and what I have desired. Thank you, Hoka!

The wide one does not fit well on my feet it is really wide on the front but the narrow in the middle. I wish I just bought the regular size one.

I bought the wide one but the sole doesn't cover the middle of my feet. My old bondi felt much better.

I love these shoes. I purchase insoles to fit my arch and they help my plantar fasciitis pain. They keep my feet stable when walking and running as well. They also have plenty of toe space. Only downfall is they wear pretty quickly. My town pair I have only had since January and the inside fabric has worn down so the inner plastic scrapes the back of my ankles. I do feel they are pricey for their longevity

Very frustrated. 2 yrs. ago I bought the Toa GTXk, size 10 for hiking, and they are the most comfortable shoe I've ever felt. After a long hike in the mountains, I forget their even on. I bought the Bondi 8, to use as an every day walker, because of same heel drop and support as the Toa's. Unfortunately the Bondi 8 aren't even close to to the same fit. My big toe cramps into the front and the mid foot and forefoot are way more narrow than the Toa's. I bought the Transport 6 month ago, and they are also too narrow. No idea why the fit is so different and the support line was of no help in making a recommendation. I sent them back. Luckily Hoka has a great return policy.

I am 300 lbs and EEE feet. My feet and toes don't hurt now. Thank you.

I've enjoyed HOKA high-top hiking boots for years. Needed a pair of shoes suitable for urban treks. These did the trick. 100%.

Shoe was average. I paid expedited shipping. The representative on the phone never offered the free expedited shipping. I brought it up later in another call ... and she "credited" my account for the next time. There won't be a next time.

I have another HOKA model that fits good and feels great. The Bondi 8 hurts my small toe. I think the shoe box is narrower.

I ORDERED MY USUAL SIZE SHOE 9.5 BUT THE SHOE HAD ABOUT ANOTHER INCH LEFT IN THE TOE AREA- LIKE IT WAS A 10 OR HIGHER. BOTH SETS OF SHOES RETURNED- WILL TRY AGAIN

My first pair of Hoka's were the Bondi, and I really liked them. My grandson ended up finessing them away from me. The only problem I had with the original pair was the width in my midfoot. So I ordered another pair, and got them in Wide. That was a mistake. I wear a size 14, and the shoe was just so large, I found myself tripping and felt clumsy.

I have had painful Bunyons for 25+ years. My surgeon highly recommended HOKA, and I bought the Bondi because it had the softest uppers and no hard plastic to run my bunions. I feel like I am walking on clouds when I wear these. I bought wide because of my bunions and they fit me well.

Helping my feet. I stand on my feet at least 8 - 10 hours 5 days a week as a teacher and coach

I wear a M 13 in all shoes for decades. All around these shoes feel great and offer superb cushioning, but after a few days of walking, I realized the toe box was not going to cut it. Took advantage of the exchange program and awaiting my size 14s and hoping for a perfect fit.

The shoe does help somewhat with my Plantars fasciitis, but I ordered wide and it was not wide at all.

Bondi 8 turns out to be too cushioned ... but the Rincon 3 is not quite enough ... and the one before has too much structure ... Is there a better fit for my EE feet?

Best sneaker. Helps my knees and my feet do not hurt.

I have been dealing with foot pain for years. My Podiatrist suggested the Biondi 8's and I am so glad I listened. I am on my feet for hours at a time and was nearly crippled by the end of the day before these shoes. Now I feel like running after work because my feet no longer hurt. Thank You Hoka!!!

I researched online and these shoes were recommended for metatarsalgia. The do seem to be helping. They feel tighter than most shoes but I assume this is because they are new and provide more support than cheaper shoes. I will keep them and expect they will loosen with time.

Maybe because they're new, but they are a bit squeaky. Also, the new tongue strap to keep the tongue straight tends to keep it too far towards the inside of my foot. Other than that, on par with previous versions of the Bondi design.
