Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I have 3 pair and when I told my husband how comfy they are he wanted a pair. His foot is very wide and HOKA has 4EEEE which is amazing and fit him perfectly!! Happy Father's Day to him!

I am on my feet all day on concrete floors and these shoes let me work with no foot pain as well as taking stress of the knees and ankles. I have tried many of the best that the major shoe companies offer and the Bondi 8 surpasses them all in comfort, cushioning, stability. Wish I had tried these sooner. My 68 year old feet are happy now and I now have multiple pairs. Thank you Hoka!

I wish I had heard of HOKA shoes long ago. I'm 70 years old and I walk my pup 3x a day for a total of 2 hours. With my old brand of shoes, my feet ached by the end of the day. Not with my HOKA Bondi 8. There are times when my pup will look at me indicating she wants to go home. We do, but not because of my feet. I am a very satisfied customer.

How come all the high top womans shoes don't come in wide

The Good: very comfortable walking shoes. The Bad. I love the Clifton 8. I wear a EE and the rounded toe is comfortable and roomy. I tried the new Clifton 9 and was so disappointed and upset that with the 9 Model, they took away the rounded toe and went to a tapered toe. This forced me to go to a half size bigger which now feels 2 big. Why in the world would Hoka shoot themselves in the foot. Because of this, I hesitate to recommend the Clifton 9 EE to anyone.

I really love the Bondi 8. I had been wearing a Clifton 8 wide. What I came to find out was that I really needed an extra wide which you can ONLY get in the Bondi 8. That's fine. I've just evolved to realize that the show I need is $165. Again, ok with that as my feet are too important. Let me also say that Hoka customer service is "top notch". It's a huge differentiation point for this manufacturer vs their competitors. They actually want you to like their product. What a novel concept!! Here's what I think would make a lot of sense for Hoka. Make the Clifton 9 and the Bondi 8 in extra wide. Further, my issue with offering only 3 colors in extra wide is less that desirable. Heck, just give me 6 colors as the ones you have I do not really like. Maybe add blanc de blanc/illuminating, nimbus cloud/blanc de blanc and maybe just white. You've got 15 colors in regular fit. I'm sensitive to your SKU issue, but Skechers seems to be doing just fine since they basically invented the need for wide fit running shoes. Hopefully you guys will take a look at expanding your breadth/depth of your offering in extra wide Mens. Thanks!!

Laces are nylon and come untied even when knotted.Cotton preferred.

3rd pair of Hokas and 3rd pair I ordered a 1/2 size bigger. Even with that, the Bondi runs small. Maybe it is the Bondi (vs other models I own) or maybe it is the quality control. Either way, plan on ordering up no less then 1/2 a size or go to a retailer to try it on. Other than that, a solid, comfy shoe.

So far I love this second pair of Bondi 8. I love the look, but more importantly I love how my feet feel after having worked all night. I'm a R.N. Supervisor by profession. And taking care of my feet is a top priority!

Really love my hoka's needed a 4E extra wide Perfect fit Very comfortable

Good quality shoes. Light weight with great cushion.

I am going to buy another pair in the next few weeks. Love the support I get from this shoe.

Shoe is fine and apparently there is a break in period. I'm going from a bondi 7 to an 8. Getting off there email list is impossible unsub after unsub blocked etc they still send too many emails. If I order another hoka I'll take the long way round.

I enjoy the product very much To my surprise, the soul began to come apart after only two months. This is the second pair of the same exact shoe that I have purchased. So it was frustrating.

I like the look and fell of the shoe, but it doesn't have the great cushioning that Bondi 7 has.

While these are great for walking around on a concrete pool deck all day, I'm not sure I'd go running in them (if I were a serious runner). My heels sink to deeply into the foam. I would need the same amount of cushioning, but I'd need better and more secure heel support

I usually like these Bondi's a lot, but for some reason my older Bondi's that I replaced with these are still more comfortable now than the new ones are.

Looks great, comfort is good. I'm happy for this purchase.

My husband is dealing with plantar fascitis and his Podiatrist strongly suggested he try Hokas. Since putting them on, it's all he wears and has since purchased Hoka work boots.

Fit great right out of the box. Wore all day. Very comfortable. Bought a men's size 8D so that I could get a color that was out of stock in women's. Glad I did. I wear a women's 9 1/2.

OMG. My feet, knees and hips haven't felt this good in years. Wish I'd bought them sooner.

Mens BONDI 8 is a great shoe. I need XX Wide(4E) in Men's. I wish HOKA offered more of a color selection for the 4E. That's my one suggestion to keep your customers happy.

I use shoe for working out and everyday wear. I typically wear a 14 or 15 6E; but was willing to try these because of the numerous first-hand positive reviews I have gotten over the lat year, especially from people in the medical profession. I can wear them and like them but they do feel a bit short in the toes. I plan to purchase again; however, would like to see increased selections in larger sizes with XXW width
