Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I bought these for running on a treadmill and i feel they are to heavy

I was stupid and measured my foot instead of finding a retailer.

The same shoe but a different color doesn't fit the same.

Didn't fit that right. Usually not a problem for me with other brands.

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.

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.

Runs really tight in the middle of the foot for a 4e wide

I tried the Bondi after having multiple Cliftons. I like the cushion, but there's a firmness or stiffness to the feel that I don't enjoy as much as the Clifton.

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 had high hopes for these shoes but they are so soft you kind of get a leg workout just walking in them. I find them almost like walking in sand on the beach.

I have worn the shoes twice. Though comfortable, the right toe area is collapsing with a large indent toward the area between toe tips and lace area. Have not witnessed something like this issue in the past.

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.

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?

The heel is sunken on one side which is my main complaint but what I have noticed after 2 weeks is that they kill the arches of my feet. Maybe not the pair for me, but the sunken heel is a quality killer.

Was excited to try the Bondi 8 as it came in extra wide they are tight through the toe box also feel like the push up on arch near the heal Tried them for a few days started causing me pain in arches similar to plantar fasciitis

The support is not enough for me. Maybe I need to stick to leather shoes. That being said I find it a good shoe.

I'm a PE teacher only feet all day long during the school year. I found Hoka's and like them a lot. The only issue I have is that I wear a 14 4E (extra wide) and Hoka only makes 1 shoe with 3 colors in extra wide. I wish they had more of a selection for those with large feet. If they had more options I'd give them a 5-5*.
