I have tried five other running shoes, to no good end. I use them for my 2-3 mile daily walks. So far they are proving to be worth their salt; actually doing what they advertise. Great fit, comfy, but most of all firm structure and support for my tired old feet! Thank you!

These honestly feel like running on clouds. Plenty of room for toes & a wider ball of the foot.

Comfortable right out of the box - not easy since I have multiple problems with me feet. Very light weight and wonderful to walk in.

There were mixed reviews but I went ahead and ordered and so glad I did....first time wearing Hoka brand, I find the Bondi 8 to be a very comfortable walking shoe....I put on a decent amount of steps on my walking pad while standing at my desk and also walking my dog....when wearing my running shoes on the pad, my feet were really sore the next day. Not so with these....would definitely recommend! I wear an 8.5 medium in almost all shoes, these were right on the money there.

Initially I was not fond of the changes in the Bondi 8 from the 7. I have only worn the shoes for a week for everyday wear and walking but so far so good. I no longer run because of an issue with my big toe. I am very happy with my purchase and plan on buying a second pair soon.

Shoes had alot of cushion almost like you just walked on air. Ordered wrong size so had to exchange but got another style. Next pair probably will be these but in a larger size of course

I wore the Hoka Bondi 7s previously and actually prefer the feel and support of this new version (8). The shoe platform is larger and slightly less attractive but I think it adds to the stability and performance of the shoe. I love it.

I am in love with the Bondi 8! It fits me better than the Bondi 7 because it seems to be slightly narrower. I have been wearing bondi for years and will never wear any other athletic shoe.

I am impressed with the Bondi 8. Having worn the Valor for years, I think this is a good replacement.

The Hoka Bondi 8 are totally awesome!!! I own the regular Bondi and other types of Hoka and I love them all!! These have a true bounce and allow my feet to be comfortable and supported! I’ve tried many other brands but nothing comes even close to these Hokas!!! If you have pain or feet issues these will not disappoint!

This is my second pair of Bondi’s from Hoka- This is a great shoe- it’s comfortable, springy and fits nicely. This shoe does has a lot of support in the heal and therefore a fairly large sole- this makes the shoe feel a bit bulky- but after wearing it you no longer notice. Great everyday shoe as well as running shoe- I use it for both!

So I intentionally ordered a half-size down (usually 7.5, ordered a 7) based on other reviews on here and TikTok and that worked out perfect for me! I found this shoe from the HOKA website through their shoe quiz and will be using them for a week straight in Disney World in June. That means around 14-16 hours of standing/walking, upwards of 25,000 steps a day. So far, breaking them in was slightly painful (they're pretty stiff when you first get them) but after maybe just 3 wears, they have formed to my feet and are so comfortable! The bounce doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, and they are so breathable, which is difficult for me to find (I'm talking about you, ON... Lol). If you found that OnCloud didn't work for you, and you're wondering if you should try another ridiculously expensive shoe, definitely give these a try.

Bondi 8 wide is better than Bondi 7. The soft mesh is more comfortable while walking. No arch support & I have to buy a new insole to fit my arch for full support. Bondi 7 doesn't last long enough because the lining of shoes from the back of the heels is torn apart easily. Hopefully, Bondi 8 will last longer.
