Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I sustained 6 fractures in my left foot with 3 plates and 15 screws in my foot and Hoka brand was recommended by my orthopedic surgeon. I was pleasantly surprised and highly recommend this shoe. My foot is still very sore, but the Bondi 8 has allowed me to get back on the elliptical, walk the dog and be more active with less pain.

I work in a hospital as a Medical Laboratory Scientist, I'm on my feet a lot. Not only is this shoe really cute, the support is phenomenal. Every step I take feels like I am wearing moon boots! When I first put them on I was a little worried. They were a little snug at my instep and the sides of my heels, but after 2 days, they were all 'broken in" and they feel fabulous! I will definitely buy these Hoka's again! Shipping was free, however it seemed to take forever to receive, I was excited to get them.

I really like the comfort that is felt while walking with these shoes, at the same time I get too fixed on looking at the base of the shoes they seem to overlap and Id really hate to trip on these.

They're light weight and offers lots of cushion when I run. I had to go up half a size which made them a perfect fit.

I love how lightweight these shoes arelike air on your feet! The cushion and support are good too. My pronation always pushes the tongue to the side, so I was especially happy to find these with an attached tongue. It stays exactly where it should! The only thing I don't like is how flared the sole is on the heel and toe box. It makes them look enormous. I have several past Bondi styles (as well as other Hoka styles) that I prefer the look of because they aren't as chunky looking.

These are probably the most comfortable and supportive shoes I've ever worn. I work customer service and am on my feet all day long and these have changed the game for me. I wish the soles weren't as wide aesthetically speaking but as a trade off to the comfort? I'll take it. 10/10

The bondi 8 is a great against. It's comfortable and it provides a lot of support for your feet.

These shoes fit perfectly and feel so good--even when I first put them on! I feel like I am walking on a cloud! I love that they are all black color--very smart looking to my mind! They also feel very light to pick up and yet they are so substantial for my feet!

Very uncomfortable they were too big but some how dug into the inside side of my foot.

I love this shoe. I was having trouble finding a shoe that I can walk in after my bunion surgery and a co-worker suggested the Bondi. They are great. I will buy them again.

Great shoes! Love the comfort and support!

I use this product for work shoes as a nurse

These sneakers were snug on the top and siders of my feet in a size I wear in all shoes. If I had gone up a size the length would have been too long. The shoes were well made and in an attractive color palette they just weren't for me.

I bought these because of recommendations from others. They provide a lot more cushioning than my old sneakers and make it easier for me to walk.

I was hoping with all the reviews and stories I've heard about Hoka was true. I must say they are great for standing all da. I purchased wide but for some reason the right foot kept putting serious pressure on my right great toe after wear for an hour or more. Unfortunately I work 12 hours and they didn't work for me.

I have ten screws and a metal plate in my ankle and a recent knee replacement. I was really having trouble walking downhill. That is not a problem anymore. I am able to maintain a steady pace. These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever purchased.

Colors were great, the white soles would be a problem; dirt grass areas etc.,

I love this shoe. I was having trouble finding a shoe that I can walk in after my bunion surgery and a co-worker suggested the Bondi. They are great. I will buy them again.

Wide row box, plantar arch shape and cushioning , and full comfortable heel support make these the ONLY shoes I can comfortably wear. Even with skirts and dresses. I have bunions and flat feet former runner. Thank goodness for Hoka

At first I really loved these. Then I started getting numbness in some of my toes. I've never experienced this with any other shoe brand and always wear regular width shoes. If it wasn't for that, I'd give them 5 stars.

Sole of shoe flared out, making it look like I had ducks feet since it's already a Wide. I wear a HOKA shoe, Wide not that I bought locally and it's fine from the past. Not sure you have redesigned the newer ones or not. I will try and look locally for a pair since I had to return these. I find this to be common with shoe manufacturers. In trying to make the shoe to them look better, they change the structure of the shoe and with someone like myself who wears inserts this can be quite distressing.

I had been hesitant to try Hoka's mainly cause I didn't know which to buy! I went to a running store where they measure feet and make suggestions. The recommendation was Bondi 8 and its the best decision I made! Although more expensive than I normally spend, they are worth every dime! I'm now a Hoka fan for life!

I love my new HOKA sneakers. They are beautifully designed, the color combination is gorgeous and most importantly my feet are grateful. I feel like I can walk up the hills of SF and even run with much greater ease. Stylish and a pleasure to wear. I look forward to putting them on.

Trying to break in my shoes and I am not sure how I feel about them as of yet. I have heard nothing but good things about your shoes and so hoping I will reap the rewards. This 3 star could go to a 4 very fast. I walk a lot for exercising so comfort is my goal. To be continued

Love me some HOKAs, however these 8's do not live up to the fit and plushness of my 7s. I read through other reviews stating the same, but purchased anyway as the 7s were such a magical shoe that I hoped the 8s would pull through. Can't say I'll purchase these again, but will see these through by revolving wear with another brand for daily walks/runs.
