Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

According to your charts, my size is a men's 6 EE. ( or. Women's 7EE - DD is tight). I "settled" Fir a men's 7EE and put cotton balls in the toes. I bought them to play pickleball. I do think they're good shoes. (FYI. I wore a child's 5.5 EEEE for my wedding shoes. I wear two pairs of thick socks in my Men's 7wide hiking boots, my usual daily footwear. I have backpacked nearly 14,000 miles in my adult life)

When I wore my first Bondi a year or so ago I wondered why it took me so long to discover them? The most comfortable shoes I've ever worn! I got my second pair just last month and love everything about them.

I use my HOKA's for walking and exercise. They are very comfortable and light weight.

I bought my first pair of heavy duty work shoes from HOKA & absolutely love them. Couldn't work without them. Then I decided to buy some colorful casual shoes. They fit perfect & feel like heaven. Very happy!

I had surgery on my right foot three months ago. Finding a shoe to fit my swollen foot post surgery has been a challenge at best. I tried to get my foot into a pair of Men's Bondi 8 11.5 2E, but the shoe was to tight. I then decided to order a pair of the same shoes in a 4E width. I'm still breaking the shoes in. Some days the shoe feels good and other days, depending on how swollen my foot is, the shoe feels to tight. Prior to my surgery, I wore Men's Bondi 7 shoes in a regular width and loved them! Hoping I'll eventually love these shoes too.

I love Hokas arch and knee support but also need a 4E wide toe box. This was the only Hoka I could find in 4E. It is perfect for me. Please make them in white also!

Beautiful shoe. Love the color. But the fit didn't work for me. The toe box is much tighter than in the clifton, and I felt I would need to size up.

These are the first pair of Hoka shoes (Bonid 8) that I've purchased. I have back problems and these shoes make walking leisurely and for exercise much less painful for me.

The Bondi 8 is the perfect shoe for long shifts. I love them. I suggest this brand and shoe for all nurses. They are so comfy and the life of the shoes is much longer than the other brands. GREAT JOB HOKA ONE ONE!!!

I have been wearing hokas since bondi #4, my new bondi 8s EEwide seem to fit a little loose around the toes.,going to try D width.

Looks like a platapus

This is my everyday shoe after an incident where I broke my foot. It is hands down the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. Sadly it did break down very fast considering the cost of the shoe.

Wear them everyday!!!! Even saved my old pair for weekend chores!!!

I have worn Bondi 7 shoes for about 5 years now after a recommendation from a friend of mine. I have been totally happy with them. I mainly like them for the support they give my knees. But have purchased the Bondi 8 shoes and they seem to be quite different from sliding into them to not feeling as good afterwards from a 3 mile run 3 times now. color me surprised. I may have to go back to local Fleet Feet store to try another shoe.

I was wearing another brand of shoe because they are known for having the most comfortable cushioning in their shoes. The problem I had with almost every pair was my foot slipping around inside the shoes. I tried going down a half size and/or lacing them up tighter, but nothing worked. I tried a pair of the Bondi 8 in my normal size in extra wide. I love them so much, I now have 2 pair!

I use my Hoka Bondi 8 shoes for treadmill running, walking, elliptical and general exercises including light weight lifting. I was looking for a shoe that would provide excellent cushion support and overall comfort. The first time I used my new shoes, I knew I found the exact product I needed. I have a knee replacement so having the right shoe that provides the cushion support I need is a must. I have tried many shoes and none of them come close to the support and comfort I get with my Hoka shoes!

I really love my past Bondi that I have purchased. I work on concrete floors and do about 35000 steps a day, so comfort and durability is a must. The bondi 8 have changed and not for the better. I normally wear a woman's 10 wide. I tried them on at a local store and found that the toe box is a little more narrow, the drop seems to be in a weird spot and the foot bed was also more narrow. So Itried on the men's at the store. They did fit better. They only had black at the store, so I ordered them online. I'm thinking I tried on a bondi 7 at the store because the ones I got online the tongue is more attached, which gives less ability to move it and make it fit just right. Also the foot bed itself even though it's the same size as the black is narrowed more. I love my Hoka bondi and it's all I've wore since the 6 came out. No other shoe has fit so well and felt so comfortable. Why did you take a great shoe and break it?

The Bondi 8 is about 3/8" wider across the ball of the foot on extra wide size which probably makes for more stability but I had to retrain my muscle memory to move my foot further left as many times I was pushing brake and accelerator in my truck at same time - dangerous. The materials for the sole do not hold up as well on the eight as they did on the 7 and to keep clean requires bristle brush on sides of the shoe, not just a wet cloth. I prefer the horizontal rear loop on the 7 rather than the vertical loop on the 8. Comfort is good and helps a lot since I have arthritis in both feet. Disappointed that extra wide only offers three colors but I guess demand for extra wide is not great.

Like the new heel.

I LOVED my Bondi 7 pair. I needed a new pair, and ordered the Bondi 8. When they came, the tongue under the laces of each shoe has been sewn into one side of the shoe lining so that when the shoes are tied, the tongue is pulled to one side and can't be straightened. I thought maybe I could just cut it, but for just under $200, I shouldn't have to do that. Why the change? The Bondi 7 wasn't like that. I found the perfect sneaker, only to have this come up in the new version.

gREAT SHOE! bUT TOO NARROW FOR MY TOES, TOO SMALL OVERALL

Love these shoes. Like walking on a cloud. Had to hold out until I could feel rocks through the soles of my old shoes. Very expensive.

I wear these shoes in the garage while working on a car restoration. Constantly on my feet on concrete. The antislip is great. If it wasn't for Hoka, I wouldn't be able to get anything done on my project.
