Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Love the Hoka Bondi shoes. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever purchased... sorry Air Jordan...

Love these shoes, l wear them for work and leisure.

Not often will you try on a new shoe and immediately start smiling. This is my experience with the Bondi. Refereeing High School Basketball is a great way to stay involved with a sport I enjoyed as a youth, but my sore feet made it difficult to work up and down the court. The Bondi has relieved my foot and Achilles aches and breathes well to keep my feet dry. The all black shoe looks great and wears even better. Worth it.

Work And every day use

I'm on my feet all day, and with recent knee surgery, these pair of Hoka are much needed shoes. However, they sent me the wrong color. I didn't know what to do, but just live with it. Not my favorite color, but the shoes are nice.

Really comfortable

I wear these shoes for work. They are comfortable. The tongue is attached to the inside arch of the shoe. Took a little getting use to.

Bought for outdoor walking

I love the cushion aspects of my new Bondi 8 shoes. I am very happy with the soft bounce to them, and have purchased many many pairs of them. I am disappointed, however, that the past three pairs top leather has ripped or separated from the rubber soles. An naturally, it happens just after the one year warranty has expired. These last two pair that I just ordered will be my last if this happens again in what I feel is too short of a lifespan. They feel great on my feet and I love the variety of colors and patterns!

I'm a 59-year-old man with accessory navicular syndrome. These shoes give me great cushioning and great support. Feet don't hurt for once. Fabulous, will buy more.

Most comfortable shoes I have ever owned Bondi 8 is very comfortable an cushioned! Great fit !!

Plenty of cushion. A large toe box for my wide, flat feet. Seem a little large, but my feet expand into them pretty well when I run. I just don't care for the electric blue color.

HOKA backed up their warranty when my one of my Bondi-8 soles started to delaminate. They discussed my issue and then asked me to return the shoes for replacement.

I wear a 10.5 4E in shoes. I have purchased Clifton extra wide and they fit great. The bondi however are not extra wide even though the shoes are marketed as being extra wide size. Very disappointed with this purchase. I would have purchased the Clifton again but they have not been available in extra wide. Please bring them back on the market!

loved the shoe but it was too narrow in the toe box

Fit, quality and comfort are great. But for the shorter shoe lace, I would have given 5 stars.

I originally switched from New Balance to Hoka with the Bondi 6 and I loved them and went through about 5 or 6 pairs of the Bondi 6. And then when Hoka released the Bondi 7, I loved them even more. After trying several different times the new Bondi 8, I gave up. The Bondi 8 fits terrible compared to the previous models. Way too clunky in the toe box area and narrow around the arch. I switched to the Graviota and am now trying to get comfortable with those. We will see. PLEASE BRING BACK THE BONDI 7!!!!

Comfortable Surprised at the softness of the sole. Wanted the padding but sole tore when I stepped on a twig. Makes me think the shoes won't last long.

The plastic strip that lays over the upper lace holes has come off.

I sent my Bondi 8, black on black, back because the top material turned decidely navy blue. I assumed it was a defect. When the replacement shoes came, the top material looked definitely black, out of the box. After wearing them 3-4 is mild dry weather, the top material now is navy blue. What is up with this? I love the shoes but I wanted black, as I sometimes wear them with somewhat formal wear.

I hope these do better than my last Bondi's - Each pair bought has got consistently cheaper and lasts no where near as long as the last. Here is one thing that has disappointed me so far over the last few pairs. The heel. The heel breaks down and the plastic reinforcement starts to stab you and rub you raw. I get about a year tops. Thats been the biggest let down. They used to last so much longer and be so much better. Guess they are putting the effort they used to in them. This is my 4th or 5th pair I've owned. If these last better in the heel, there will be a next. Otherwise it may be time to move on.

Great look and fit.

Upon wearing these shoes, my lower back chronic pain disappeared. It returns when I wear my other shoes.

I recently received a new pair of my favorite sneakers. These feel like they were made for my feet. I walk as if on air and don't have any fatigue after wearing them all day. I have wide feet and Hoka is one of the few brands that cater to wide feet.
