Shoes and bras, the two things that should be custom-made if you really want perfection. I was hoping to experience a "walking on air" quality with these, given the amount of hype and the depth of the sole. They're mostly comfortable, just not amazing, and I have to wear a cushioning sleeve on my smallest toe to prevent pain from compressed toes -- and I do not have wide feet. However, I must have a wide toe box to prevent metatarsalgia. These do not have an especially wide toe box--not as good as Altra. I bought a 1/2 size larger, possibly could have gone a full size larger but worried about slippage. But seeing as feet are as unique as snowflakes, my experience probably has no bearing on anyone else's. Keeping them because they work well enough and encase my foot well.

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.

I have wide feet and a bunion. I could last all day and then some in these shoes.
I bought the same size as I bought the previous time. This one felt a tad bit bigger.

My first pair of these fit perfectly like a glove. I wear a wide size to help with many foot problems and they feels so great! They didn't require a break in period etc I'm on my feet all day for long hours. I wore out my old pair and ordered a new pair in the black color. They do not feel the same :( I have other Hoka shoes that fit well right away and this is the first pair that I haven't been super happy with right away. I'm debating keeping them or not. I feel like I will have to break these in. It feels more narrow towards the top of the shoe and it only is attached on one side making the other feel lopsided and odd. Not that happy with these yet

These bondi 8's are my first pair of Hoka shoes. I purchased the eggnog color about three months ago. While I think the shoe is super cute and comfy, these shoes get super dirty fast and the color is chipping off of the rubber sole of the shoe. These would be perfect if they weren't falling apart so quickly.

I am a nurse on my feet all day long. These Hokas have cured my plantar fasciitis. They were recommended by my podiatrist. I will continue to buy these again and again!

I ordered wide, and they are very comfortable in the toe and ball of foot area. However, the arch is very narrow, and not comfortable at all.

I tried them on after ordering a wide and they were the tightest shoes I ever had on my feet. Returned them since I am looking for comfortable walking shoes for vacation.

Enough room for your foot so it's not crammed in there which is a plus good for lifting too

Same size as I have purchased 2x prior. This shoe is too small for me to wear comfortably.

I love these shoes. I walk in them and the cushioning is great for my back and feet. I have a few pairs and the Bondi 8 seems to have a little better stability than my 7's. Both are very comfortable. I highly recommend them.

My 4th pair of bondis in 18 mon. All have had issues with the tread on the bottom. This pair the eyelet that the shoe string goes thru ripped out in less than two weeks and tread coming loose. Spoke to some one about replacing my 3rd pair back in April or may time frame but when I printed my receipt it said I couldn't send them back. So I didn't mess with that anymore. Decided i would try bondi 8 one more time and nope same issue but worse this time. Mind you I only wear these in the gym to referee basketball. I just am at a loss for words at this point.

I have worn my Hokas 2 times now and I am very disappointed with them. They are not what I expected at all. After about 6 hours with them on I had to change into a different pair of sneakers. This happened 2 days in a row. Not sure what my next step will be.

I work in Healthcare and do a lot of walking and standing at work. I must admit, I was skeptical but a friend insisted and I am so glad! These shoes are incredible- no foot or knee pain during or after wearing these. I'm a new Hoka believer.

Unfortunately the 8s are narrower and shallower compared to the 7s. Such a disappointment for Hoka to make such a dramatic change within a product line.

These are great! I have high arches and flatter sole shoes tend to ache my feet but these are so incredibly comfortable. I work as a veterinary nurse in a specialty hospital where I can be on the go or in surgery for 3+ hours 4 days out of the week. I also have to pick up dogs and do a lot of movement around at work. These help so much!

I've only had these shoes for a week or so, but I love them so far. They are comfortable out of the box and walking is much easier than in the past. I have planter fasciitis and arthritis. The "rounded" sole makes it more comfortable with the arthritis. If they maintain the Cushing present, I will be ordering more.

I love these shoes so far. They are comfortable and cushioning making my day go by easier since I walk and stand all day at work. The only thing that I don't like is they feel tight. But overall love them! I get some many compliments on the colors also!
