Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Sorry to say it's my first time buying Hoka but the first one that I bought was totally disappointing. This one is not comfortable at all. Mistakenly, I trashed the shoe box because I have heard about Hoka . But this is not the comfortable one.

Super cushioned and comfortable for the entire 2 miles I wore them. The sole delaminated. This happened to another pair of the same shoe but after over a year of significant wear. Great shoes if the sole does not fall apart. For $165 there are better options. Switched to New Balance 1080 V12 Zappos as always was great.

I like to update shoe status overtime. I'm not sure how to update past reviews on this shoe on Zappo. So, I'll update here again. The Bondi 7 was nice (bought twice) but this Bondi 8 is very uncomfortable. My feet hurt so bad that I had to stop using them and simply donated them. My pain all went away after tossing these shoes. I couldn't even walk in them or use them for work.

The Bondi 8 is horrible. I loved the Bondi 7 and had four or five pair. There was a nice cushion around the heel. It had a tendency to wear, but the shoes stayed very comfortable for their whole life. The Bondi 8 replaced the nice cushion with what feels like a stainless steel plate. It’s probably plastic, but it is extremely uncomfortable. I wore my new Bondi 8s for one day and had blisters on my heels and shooting pains up from my right ankle. I have no idea what shoes I will have to go to now. Angry and disappointed!

Style & color are great, but when you get into rating the comfort and how I feel about them overall then they're a total flop! I bought these believing that Hoka was supposed to be a comfortable shoe, but I was wrong! I've worn these off & on for the past month and they are the worst-feeling shoes I have purchased in the past 25 years. They feel much smaller than the DOUBLE EE WIDTH they advertise and the bottom has absolutely NO CUSHIONING (unlike my Skechers). After about an hour of wearing them the soles of my feet feel like I have been walking on concrete barefooted, and NOT in a good way!

Bought shoes in September and in less than 3 months the left loop on the shoe broke. Very disappointed in the quality of the shoe. I have bought Hokas before and this is the first time I have experienced this.

It was too hard. I thought there would be a lot more give. It was hard on my back.

Are you gonna actually process the order, or just think about it?

I do not recommend this shoe. The comfort was bad. The shoe caused extreme ankle pain. The pain went away after not using the shoes. As others stated, the back of the shoe wears (too early) and a plastic piece cuts into your heel. Very disappointed in Hoka Bondi 8. I had high expectations for this shoe given the cost. I'm reluctant to try any Hoka shoes again.
