Was skeptical to purchase these with the mixed reviews from previous customers who were disappointed in the new version. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and need a lot of cushioning and arch support for pain relief. These sneakers are both! I am so glad I purchased them and will definitely buy more especially since I am on my feet for long hours at work. Hopefully they will continue to be comfortable for a long period of time.

These shoes are fabulous for my plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. I just bought a 2nd pair because my first pair were starting to hurt my feet due to breaking down. I only gave 4 stars due to the fact they didn't last me a year. I only wear them to work where I'm on my feet all day in a busy veterinarian office. I wish they didn't break down so fast.

People said they will work or they won't for you. For me, they work and got me moving again while dealing with neck disk issues. Love my Hoka's.

These are the lightest and most comfortable sneakers that I've ever worn; the colors are bright and fun. I get lots of compliments on them... they're clunkier than they need to be though.

I understand that these are very good shoes for some people but after wearing them for a week, I'm exhausted, I've woken up with cramps from my thighs to my toes, I have to come to a complete stop to work kinks out of my ankles. I went back to an old pair of Nikes today and all the problems went away. I truly wish they worked for me but they don't

Was looking for a stable walking shoe for arthritic ankles. Also, need space for cramped toes. Ordered the shoe in a wide, but still not enough space for comfort. And if you have to wear a support device or ankle wrap, it is very tight.

I have arthritis and plantar fasciitis on one foot. This is the only sneaker/shoe I can wear. Still in pain but at least I can walk.

The Bondi8 was recommended by a professional for the osteoarthritis that I have in my knees. I was never a sneaker person, never wore them. Hoka has definitely turned me into one! I can't tell you how great a difference they have made in my walking and in every day life. They are my "Go To,"

The Bondi 8 has even more cushion than Bondi 7 but the sole around the toe has a platypus look. The Bondi 7 sole around the toe didn't flare out. Bondi 7 had a light blue with white sole that went with more outfits. The Bondi 8 colors do not unless you want black or white ones.

I was hoping the 8 would be an improvement on the 7, but I was extremely disappointed with them. I bought them on Afterpay so I can't even return them. I'm stuck with super expensive shoes that I have no use for. If I would have known paying with Afterpay would forfeit me being able to return I would have bought them outright.

I am a long time Bondi customer, Bondi 8'a are not as comfortable, plush feeling or supportive as Bondi 7. I have also noticed that Bondi 7's are not lasting as long as normal for me, and my neighbor who is also a Bondi customer says hers need replacing even sooner than I have noticed. Please restore the shoe back to the former quality and comfort.

I got these on recommendation from my orthopedic doctor. I absolutely love these. They're like walking on soft comfortable memory foam. My feet are in heaven (and they definitely need it)

I have been a loyal Bondi wearer for maybe 5 years buying shoes every 6 months - but the Bondi 8 was returned for many reasons - It is not at all the same shoe and the design changes were such that I could not even walk with the large 'base' of the front on each shoe rubbing together - Also one of the shoes had a bad squeak - But all in all they were not even comfortable compared to previous Bondi designs - So please remake this one back to previous designs and I'll return as a loyal customer ! - Thank you!

Look, all feet are different and what works for me may not work for you. I have large feet (size 11) with average width and high arches. The arch support in the Bondi dug into the middle of my arches and was really uncomfortable just walking, I cannot imagine running. I know these shoes are super trendy right now but they were a hard NO on actual support and comfort. Bummer too because they were cute. I am going back to my trusty Brooks, which may not have as bright of colors but don't feel like they're going to break my foot in half.

My feet and back thank you every time I slip my feet into these shoes. They were prescribed to me by my orthopedic surgeon and he knew they would be life changing for me! I have more than one pair and they are about all I wear everyday!

Did not like the feel of this show as much as I do the Ahrahi 6, definitely more of a stable shoe needed for being on my feet all day long. Will stick with the Ahrahi shoe.

Very comfortable shoes. Feels like walking on a cloud. I love the thick bouncy bottoms. A bit tight but I think it'll get better as I wear them. I've gone through a lot of nurse shoes (Nikes, adidas, clogs, cloves) and these are my favorite!
