Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

This shoe has a defect in the left insole. There is a slight ridge near the ball of the foot. This causes pain over time.

I have owned at least half a dozen Hokas and have always found them to be comfortable. These beasts are the exception, the arches were awful and cut into my feet, sloppy fit and low quality workmanship.

Order cancelled for no reason

Ordered Men's size 10 but came with a women's size 10. Have to return.

Were not comfortable at all for me. My feet hurt so bad after wearing for a week.

In this case only, the shoe was a "defective" pair. The soles were completely off, the arch support of the right shoe was by the heel, the left shoe arch support was fine. The sole of the left show was much thinner than the thickness of the right shoe. I have tried many HOKA sneakers before and this is an anomaly, I knew when I got it for such a cheap price it was too good to be true. Never again. Go to the Freaking store and try out the shoe. This is really aggravating.

I purchased two pairs. (one for kickaround and one for the gym) . These are incredibly comfortable, well made, and look great (I have received many compliments). Unfortunately, after about two months of wearing them, I began to experience significant ankle, leg, and hip pain (to the extent I was limping). I never suspected these shoes until I stopped wearing them altogether (the pain immediately began to reverse, and within 6 weeks, the pain was gone). I believe they didn't provide enough support, and the extensive padding caused my stride to be incorrect.

The Bondi 8 interior side of the sole cuts into and under my foot from the arch to the back heel. Its a weird design as the toe box area is really wide but then dramatically narrows and digs into the under area of my foot. I'm unsure how the wider shoe would fit because my toe area is great and if I got the wider one I would think that would become an issue.

I never see my box . It says delivered but I didn’t see it

This review is not about the product itself, but Zappos. We clearly received a return item. The shoe has been wear with scratches and ducts. This is purchased as a gift, very disappointed!!

I was disappointed in this purchase. My Bondi 7 was the best shoe ever. Felt like I was walking on clouds. These Bondi 8 were the exact opposites. Hard. Felt like standing on concrete. Instant foot pain. They also felt tighter. They looked better than the Bondi 7 but can't match the comfort.

No cushioning whatsoever!!!

I detest these shoes. I have bought 5 pair of Hokas in past couple years. First one disappointed in. Besides being ugly, they done fit as well as all the others at the same size.

didn't fit. felt bad

I ordered a 9EE. I received a 10. I returned it. The return was easy, at Whole Foods.

Fit was good and true to size however shoes did not hold up and my feet were hurting after wearing them for a few months. I'm on my feet a lot which is why I bought these shoes and for the money they did not hold up. Not what have come to expect from Hoka.

Absolute worst shoes I’ve ever tried. I though on clouds were bad, but these are worse.

These hurt my feet so badly. I am truly very disappointed because everyone seems to love these shoes. Unfortunately, I had to spend a few days wearing them before I realized they didn’t work for me, so now I am stuck with a very expensive shoe that it hurts to wear.

I bought these to replace a pair of Bondi 7s. After about 5 3mile walks the Bondi 8s have given me a huge blister on the inside of my left foot. I haven't had a bister on my feet for 50 years. This is not what I expect from a premium shoe. I have gone back to my beat up Bondi 7s until I can get this sorted.

ugh! 180 bucks for slippers! Jeez hoka! and what buttheads are saying these are great for plantar fascitis - no sir! you need SUPPORT if you're over-stretching your plantar fascia.. hard pass on these...

pinched and hurt my feet. as a Type 1 Diabetic, my feet are especially important to me so I stopped wearing them

waaayyy to squishy! i bought these because they are supposed to be the best for plantar fasciitis - these are just like Skechers - all squish and NO support.... boo!

Tight and very uncomfortable. Not worth the high price.

They can’t get their billing straight—so I may never get to try these shoe. Holy moly.

I’ve been wearing hoka bindi’s for years and these are terrible!!!! I don’t know what has changed but they are not worth buying.
