After foot surgery, these are the only really comfortable shoes I can wear. Thank you, HOKA!

I bought these for work and have only been using these since I received them about 3weeks ago now and I love them. I don't get me wrong my feet still get sore but not nearly like they use to. I wish there were better deal's on them.

This shoe is very comfortable and stylish. I really enjoy it. It was a bit uncomfortable at first but after using them a bit they are better.

I have horrible plantar fasciitis and Baxter's Nerve Entrapment. This is the most comfortable shoe I've found. I love the wide width, which allows the front of my foot plenty of room to spread out. The shoe is a bit more spendy than most that I've tried, but it is well worth the cost for the comfort.

So I have fairly large (size 10), wide, feet and never in my life has any shoe, especially a tennis shoe, fit my feet so perfectly. It has a wide toebox, which is extremely comfortable for me as I occasionally get ingrowns. These shoes make walking and jogging just an overall more comfortable experience. I have noticed less pain in my back and hips, as well as my knees after a more strenuous workout. My entire foot feels supported from heel to toe and with the wider shoe base, I feel more stabilized. One of the most amazing pairs of shoes I have ever owned, I guess I am a Hoka person now!

My husband and I just had a long brisk walk.
My knee didn't hurt. His knees and hips didn't hurt.
Our feet seemed 30 years younger!!!

I have ordered this shoe before and have not had any problem but there seems to be something different with this pair. The left shoe fits fine while the right shoe from the get go was different. It was harder to get on from day one, and after wearing it several days I still struggle to get it on. It almost feels like it was made crooked. I am trying to work it in, but it's not quite there yet. I don't think I will order another pair of these............

The Bondi 8 has a wide style and it is perfect for me. I buy 1 size larger and put my orthotics in them. This is my 4th pair.

My first pair of HOKAS were the Bondi 7s. I'm an RN that works 12 hour shifts running up and down hospital hallways. I wore my 7s for about a year when the 8s came out, so I went ahead and got this "upgraded" version and now that I've been wearing them for about 8 months I can say that they are OKAY but definitely just not as good as the 7s were.
They say that they have "even more cushion" but that just doesn't feel true. The heel feels too firm, and even the back of the shoe on the ankle isn't NEARLY as cushy as the memory-foam like feeling of the Bondi 7s.
These are fine shoes, obviously I'm still wearing them, but I did need to add in an insole to help bring back some of that cushioned feeling that this version just doesn't have.
Hopefully they go back to that soft, cushioned foam in the Bondi 9s, and leave the "more responsive" firmer foam for their more running-focused shoes.
Bondi lovers want walking shoes with plenty of cushion for achy joints, not performance focused shoes for athletes!

I have pretty bad plantar fasciitis and I almost cried when I put these shoes on and started walking. It felt like my pain was melting away. I will never go for walks/hikes in other shoes again! Definitely worth the price for me. Fit perfectly.

Hoka were recommended to me by my friend and my acupuncturist because of my bask issues. I was "prescribed" the Bondi 8 by the website and they are perfect, and my friends were right! They are the best shoes I've ever worn. Saving up to buy another pair. Pricey but so worth it!!

I work 12 hours as. Nurse. Bond7 was wonderful and so I ordered the Bondi8 thinking it would be the same. It is less cushion and feels to narrow in some areas even though I got a wide. Will not get the Bondi 8 again. The first day I wore the the left heel tab tore at the bottom. They do not feel like the quality of Bondi 7. Very disappointing

I had the Bondi7 which were more comfortable than the Bondi 8. First day I put them on the pull tab on the heel broke. After working 12 hour shift my feet feel tired and hurt in the Bondi8. They feel less cushiony and even though I got a size wide they feel more narrow that the Bondi7. I would not encourage anyone to spend the money o did on the Bondi 8.

The shoes fit perfectly and seemed to invite me to walk forward, easily with a little bounce in my step. Immediately went on a short hike and the shoes were perfect.

Love the comfort of these shoes. I have many issues with my feet and these feel amazing. They were true to size and width. The only negative is how far the sole comes out around the shoe- but that is the probably why they feel so great.

I have arthritis in my knee and once I started wearing Hoka Bondi 7 the support helped me reduce the pain in the knee. I decided to try the Bondi 8 and am truly satisfied.
