Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

need extra wide for foot issues

The Best!

This is my sixth pair. I don't shop for walking shoes anymore. I just reorder these in cool colors. I'm a big guy. Old, too. Great shoes.

fit, stability and my feet are pain free.

I appreciate buying these shoes from Hoka.

I have problems with my feet. My feet don't hurt nearly as much since getting these.

Walking & going on trips. Need more xtra wide styles & affordable.

I use it for extensive walking and hiking in the gym yes everything

I use my Hoka for all my travels and daily walks.

Love these shoes. Have two pairs and don't plan on ever buying anything else. Also, the try for 30 days is awesome.

I'll be buying this product again and again and again. I walk for a living and this by far the most comfortable shoes I've worn for walking . It's a bit narrow on the toe box so next time I'll get wide. I do recommend this product who walks for a living and loves to walk or just a daily shoes. Ps this is my first review ever.

HOKA backed up their warranty when my one of my Bondi-8 soles started to delaminate. They discussed my issue and then asked me to return the shoes for replacement.

Good shoe

Fantastic feel, stability and cushioning. Will never buy any other sneaker. Just wished you offered the gore tex in wides.

These shoes are amazing! Great support and great cushion without being too soft. Will definitely get more. I just wish there were more color variations for extra wide widths.

I'm an exercise walker, although I'm also very active. I find shoes I really like, then companies up and change the design. Hoka concerned me with the changes because I really liked the Bondi 7 a lot. I'm impressed so far with the design changes and believe or not, the Hoka Bondi line is actually better now than before! It feels more supple but lighter and the insole and cushion is perfect for me. Also, the shoe is more breathable. We'll see how they hold up but they look to be well made and durable. They do cost more but I highly recommend the Bondi 8.

I've been wearing Hokas for a few years, wore the Bondi 7's and now got a new pair of Bondi 8's...OMG they are fantastic! Comfortable, cushy but with stability, I love them!

My wife and I walk each evening and the shoes are incredibly comfortable. The extra cushioning that is advertised is very accurate. I have a narrow foot, so even the regular width feels a little bit too wide. If you have a wide foot, these are going to be excellent for you.

I run 20 miles a week and found this shoe quite nice. (1) the fit is good, with lots of forefoot room, and snugs perfectly at the heel. I can't judge how the fit truly is since I wear double socks that are thick. But the fit as far as length goes is equal to the Bondi 7. (2) Plush cushioning. I buy a running shoe for its degree of cushioning and you can't beat this shoe. The cushioning is similar to the Bondi 7, yet seems to have more of a softer ride in the forefoot than the 7. (3) Looks good. (4) I got 400 miles or a tad more out of the Bondi 7's before the cushioning became worn down. I assume I can get 400 miles or more from these shoes since the ride/feel is similar.

Tons of cushion, and a smooth ride.

My husband loves is new shoes.....says that they are very very comfortable.

I hope these do better than my last Bondi's - Each pair bought has got consistently cheaper and lasts no where near as long as the last. Here is one thing that has disappointed me so far over the last few pairs. The heel. The heel breaks down and the plastic reinforcement starts to stab you and rub you raw. I get about a year tops. Thats been the biggest let down. They used to last so much longer and be so much better. Guess they are putting the effort they used to in them. This is my 4th or 5th pair I've owned. If these last better in the heel, there will be a next. Otherwise it may be time to move on.

Love my Bondi 8's. I am a heel striker and a marathon and ultra marathon runner. The Bondi's hold up to both road and dry trails with a ton of cushioning and stability. When I ordered my shoes, they arrived at my home two days later. Free shipping. Thats amazing. Solid shoe. I wore the Bondi 7's for the entire Mohican Trail 100 mile run. Never changed shoes. When I finished, no foot issues at all. I will wear my Bondi 7 or 8's at the Badwater 135 and hope to come away with the same result as Mohican. Thank you Hoka.

I really like these shoes, especially because they come in wide for my size. Great for long distance walking, and so comfortable, just the right support and stability
