Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I really wanted to love this shoe like I do my 7s. Firstly, I do like the foam and overall fit and performance. However, the ankle collars are simply rubbing my ankles too much through my socks which is a shame. These don't have quite the cushion in this area like the 7s and it allows for a firm edge in the ankle collar to press through easily. These will have to go back. Can't really recommend them unless I'm just one of the few having this issue.

Bondi 8 for walking/running or any gym activity Excellent fit , Comfortable and very light weight . Highly Recommend.

Don't let the photo fool you. These shoes are gray. They looked beige and I was really excited for a new basic color. Got the shoes and they are as gray as gray can get. So sad, will be returning. Very misleading.

I wasn't the biggest fan of the Bondi 7's but the Bondi 8's fixed all my gripes and then some! I tie my shoes each entry and the 7'a heel cup would still bunch up on me, but not the case with the 8's. I don't need a wide shoe but 7's would pinch the outside of my foot, and the Bondi 8's feel like they are cradling the outside of my foot, it's a pleasant, supportive feeling. The Bondi 8 looks much better, the laces are stronger, and it has improved almost every aspect that I had issues with on the Bondi 7's. I can am extremely pleased with the Bondi 8's, they live up to the expectations I have when I invest my money in a pair of Hokas. Well done!

I got mine today. Hit the ground walking. Then I hit the treadmill.. Yes.. still cushiony.. My bunion loves them. They are lighter weight. I was skeptical because I said they couldn't top the 7's. They did it. I wear the men's because of my bunion. Just the right width for me. I got the black ones because I am a New Yorker and the front is a different. Makes my feet look smaller. The tread at the bottom is improved. It has more meat to the tread. Go out and buy them.....

I have ran in all brand shoes and I have had many versions of Bondis. These are the best yet. I like these better than the Bondi X. I had been running in a minimal shoe , however, I have been having some knee pain recently. Since changing to these I have had no knee pain. Thanks Hoka!!!

Awesome Product

When are they going to come up with better colors and design for younger crowd who also have foot issues and this is there fix. Sad thing when a kid 30 guy wears same shoes as his 71 year old mother. I am speaking of bindi 7 with almost identical colors.

Overall beautiful silhouette! HOWEVER, the sharkskin colorway would have been PERFECT without the huge contrasting logo! A smaller heel logo or something more to Al would have been better. Please create more subdued colorways. The Almondmilk Clifton was the best effort at this thus far!

Did not see any but do y'all have a safety toe shoe
