Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Appreciate large toe box for wider feet. Very cushioned for CrossFit or painful feet. For me they last a solid year of with daily use (> 10,000 steps a day).

Nice sneaker to walk around in. Good cushion

I have several other Hoka in the same size but in this one, my toe is a bit too close to the front of the shoe so some may need to go up half a size

Lots of support and seem well made Sizing makes get be off based in n the online suggestion. I wear 9 1/2 wide usually. It said order 9 reg. I ordered 9wide to be safe. I think 9 1/2 wide would fit better. Noticed when going down hills and toes tend to hit front of shoe very often

I bought this shoe because I'm on my feet running around the clinic 12 hours a day. I'm trying to treat my plantar fasciitis, so this really helps get me through the day

I work 10hrs and then wearing them after work 4 mores hour's and my legs are not in pain anymore. So far into 3 weeks still comfortably

Selected Arahi 6 for casual wear and Bondi 8 for walk/ exercise regime. The selection has worked out excellently!

OMG, these shoes are so comfortable. The cushioning is awesome. One downside is I need 4E width and I believe only the Bondi 8 has 4E. Also, only limited colors in 4E.

I have always been pleased with HOKA and doubt I will be looking to change anytime soon. HOKA provide tremendous support and comfort.

I bought the size 8 Bomdi and it only came in a EE width. I normally wear a EEE width so they fit a little tight. I'm hoping they break in alright.

A bit expensive but so far great for standing on concrete all day morning ALSO good for hiking around the hills

Shoe was great as normal. The size compared to the Bondi 7 did seem a little smaller.

I work retail at a big box hardware retailer. I stand all day on concrete floors, have tried so many different brands of shoes, Hoka are the best I have ever worn.

I like the original bindi material better. The new mesh is harsh, stiffer. I have problem feet and ordered the man's shoe instead of the woman's. It is wider than the woman's but the sole is so spread out, it feels like snowshoes. I wish they had a. Extra wide in the woman's then I would t have to go to the man's.

Most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Only reasons I can't give a five star is 1) very limited selection in 4E width, and 2) they use UPS for delivery.

I was told to get these ,I had Clifton's 7 and they lasted forever , but man I was excited to get these for work 1 week in 3m on toe on left side falls off ! I was blown away that the mid sole is falling apart just not impressed I walk a lot so idk if that's the problem I thought this was a running shoe?

So I purchased a Bondi X that I ended up exchanging for Bondi 8 thinking it'll be better. My 8 arrived but hadn't tried it on until a few days ago. I immediately felt the same discomfort level in the arch area that I felt with the X (arch sitting on sole of shoe) and I was about to return it until I decided to place the insoles that came with my Gravity Defy shoes I had been wearing for 12 months. Oh boy, did it make a difference!!! I realized then that the X would have felt a whole lot better had I used my inserts from Gdefy. My advice to HOKA is for them to fix their insoles and make them more comfortable and remove the thin insert, especially if they're recommending Bondi 8 for people with plantar fasciatis and heel pain. No, the inserts from gdefy is not a custom orthotic, it came with the shoe which cost the same as Bondi 8. I'm trying hokas because my Podiatrist just wanted me to try a lighter shoe. I am not returning the bondi 8 because I use my old inserts with it. I will stick with my Gdefy shoes moving forward since I don't have to purchase extra orthotics for them. Still a bit disappointed with hoka.

Preparing for my first ultra which will include a lot of walking so I bought the Bondi 8 based on my experience with Bondi 7. Overall they seem to provide less cushion but it may just be a matter of breaking them in. I often walk a million steps a month and I change shoes often during the day, but these shoes have not found their place in the rotation yet. So far the older Bondi 7, the Clifton 9, and the Arahi 6 are my preferred shoes.

I use my Hoka shoes for walking and running. The shoes offer great support, comfort and fit perfectly. I recently purchased six pairs of shoes to be able to switch out daily for workout purposes. I also like wearing them when I am not working out. I highly recommend that people give these shoes a try and they find the same thing I did in Hoka shoes. Great Shoe!!!

Bondi 6 were great, Bondi 7 were great, Bondi 8 is no good. I had Bondi 7 in 14/4E, perfect fit, comfortable, fine. I cannot find a Bondi 8 that replicates the fit of the Bondi 7. Too big, too small, never right. Why change? You are driving me away. PS. "your rating" is not working. Rating is one.

Have a broken toe. Friend suggested Hokas and they've made a huge difference. Can now walk without pain

The shoes are fantastic. Your web site is accurate when it recommends to buy a size up
