Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Very comfortable, light weight and supportive

I was pretty hesitant to purchase these based on some of the reviews noting the width of the bottom the shoes but after having several friends swear by them I made the investment and I'm so glad I did. These are really a game changer!!

Greta running shoes

I tried to return the shoes and get different solids but not able! Very disappointing

Best hoka style yet!!

I have been wearing the Bondi since 2017. I buy a new pair every 6 months. I do not like the new design at all. It is not as comfortable and looks and feels much wider.

I have been wearing Hokas for a while now. All I know is I can walk easily for the first time in many years. Been able to go back to country line dance classes because of these shoes Thank you

Lighter than previous Bondi 8, extremely comfortable, good stability and support

I walk 2-3 miles at least 3 times a week. When the weather is not so hot I will walk more days a week. I have diabetic feet and have bone spurs on the tops of my feet and arthritis. These shoes have enough cushioning in them that I can walk without inserts and terrible pain that I have walking with other shoes. These shoes are the best I have ever walked in.

These are fat shoes and are not comfortable at all

These are my first Hoka's and I can see many purchases in the coming years. Having recently developed some foot pain, these shoes have returned the spring in my step. Great shoes.

These are the most cushioned shoes ever. Great for old arthritic bodies. I can go five miles again.

These shoes were just like the shell of a shoe. There was no padding in the shoes along with the bottom of them were extremely hard. Very cheaply made. It's like someone forgot to finish making them. Definitely not worth the price

They hurt my feet. Are too heavy compared to other brands.

I find them longer and wider than the Bondi 7 which I love.

I have neuropathy in my feet and I only wear HOKA shoes because they are comfortable and my feet don't hurt wearing them.

This is my 3rd pair of HOKA. With my first pair, the backing of both ankles started to fray. I had it for about 1-1/2 years and most of my activity were long walks outdoors or on treadmill. Since I loved the cushioning, I gave it another try and bought a 2nd pair (Arahi 6); six months later, the backing of the ankles started to fray again. I called Marathon Sports where I bought them and asked for a refund or exchange. They only allow returns/exchanges from up to 30 days of purchase; they did recommend to send it to HOKA directly. Now,HOKA did the right thing when I sent the shoes and gave me credit. So, unfortunately, I have no other option but to buy another pair of HOKA; I got the Bondi 8 (an upgrade based on price). Now what will happen if the ankles start fraying again? We'll see. Let's hope it doesn't. As such, I am holding off on a higher rating or recommendations to friends.

Love running in these. They are awesome especially on my longer run days.

I have had pain from Plantar Fasciitis in my heel for several months now. I've done stretches and massaging but have not noticed much improvement. I bought a pair of these shoes and have been wearing them with compression socks and although I am not pain free I have noticed an improvement.

I ordered the Bondi 8 in a size 7 medium. It is definitely not the same toe area as the Bondi 6 and 7 medium, I then ordered the Bondi 8 in wide. the toe area is good. The style should not have changed for the toe area.

I've been struggling with plantar fasciitis (due to standing on concrete all day at work) and my doctor recommended Hoka shoes, specifically models for road running because of the extra cushion. These shoes have helped greatly! I can get through the work day more comfortably than in my previous footwear and my plantar fasciitis is healing.

Like walking on clouds! Wish I purchased these while pregnant. Still great for post partum life, 6 months out, for walking in the park with baby. Love the colorways.

Love them.

I am recovering from hip surgery and was looking for the perfect walking shoes to get me on the road to recovery and these are PERFECT!! The fit is like they were made for me and the comfort is like walking on a cloud! I will definitely buy another pair and made my friend buy a pair as well!!!

I have problems with my feet and back; this is my 2nd pair of Hoka. I love these shoes. They are very comfortable and balance my posture more evenly. I particularly love the 2nd pair because it's in my favorite color, purple. They are roomy and allow me to fit insoles if need be. These shoes have helped with my back and feet issues and I highly recommend them.
