Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

They fit perfectly, the were a pretty color. But when I took them out of the box I was sure they had sent the wrong size. The biggest shoe I have every seen...clown shoes. I was sure I would trip over my own feet. And I am sure they are comfy. But just not for me. Returned and got Gaviota, which I am really liking.

I love these shoes and they are comfortable but I wish they didn't run smaller than expected and were a bit more comfortable. I'm normally a 5 1/2 to 6 and I had to return my size 6 to get a 6 1/2 and those still run a little small for me. After walking for a few hours my feet started to hurt really bad and my toes were uncomfortable but overall I love them and they are much better than any other shoes I have ever owned.

Shoes are SO comfortable! Very cushioned.

I bought a half a size down from what I typically buy my shoes in and they fit perfectly. I'm a new runner and these are my first pair of hoka's and I have no complaints. I love these shoes. Nice and lightweight. I have no complaints about these shoes.

I love the look of these shoes and have heard so many great things about them preventing or lessening foot pain. I bought and returned pair a few months ago because the insole dug into the side of my foot under my arch. This time, I sized up to a wide shoe. Unfortunately, I had the same issue. The insole digs into my foot under the arch, leaving a red, painful mark. I do not wear a wide shoe in any other brand but I do have low arches. I guess Hokas just aren't made for all feet! It's weird because I compared the shoe to my Brooks and the size of the shoe across the midfoot is almost exactly the same. It seems to just be the construction of the insole that's the problem. The insole on the Brooks shoe comes up slightly in a wavy pattern near the arch so you don't feel the edge of the insole under your arch when you walk.

I walk 3 to 4 miles a day.

I am so glad I purchased this brand. They are very comfortable and my feet are no longer yelling at me when I get home from work. I will be purchasing a pair for my son and another pair for me. I'm also interested in trying out the sandels in the near future.

Bought them again for a vacation that is coming soon. I can put them on and walk all day without any problems. The shoes are well made, very nice padding.

New to the brand and was unaware of the tongue being sown to the inside arch area which made the fit to tight. Very uncomfortable.

Definitely an improvement from her previous shoe. Daughter is a nurse and this is a game changer for her!!

The shoes are superb!

I usually need a metatarsal pad when I walk, but not with these!

Was starting to cause cellulitis I returned the shoes waiting for a return confirmation

Uncomfortable, felt like I was wearing a boat. Returned the next day

Great product, only needs a little more cushion in the front of shoes The ball of the foot

I'm a young nurse with plantar fasciitis, and extra wide feet. I'm used to wide shoes squishing the side of my feet, but was pleasantly surprised that a wide size of these do not AND I feel like I'm walking on pillows. As icing on the cake, the blue and pink pair I bought are so cute and I get compliments on them all day. Take more of my money please, I need more.

I have a heel spur and plantar fasciitis. I have to put in my foot inserts but once I do, I am in heaven! I can actually walk for a couple of miles, come home and not be in extreme pain. Very happy with these shoes. Finally, after 3 years of searching for shoes for long distance walking I have found my sole mates!

I bought my shoes in Feb and it's the beginning of April and they are already coming apart. I love how they feel just sadden that they aren't going to last that long. And my heel pain hasn't allowed me to do mileage like I usually would do so I haven't been putting extensive wear on them.

I highly recommend these! I didn't know how much I was overcompensating when walking with my Nikes until I tried these. Zero discomfort whatsoever. It felt like I was walking on a cloud.

I was in the market for some new shoes as my current ones were starting to make my feet hurt. I was recommended HOKA's, and was not disappointed! My feet are a little flat, so yes, they were sore for the first two days getting used to them, but they are now my only work shoes. I'm on my feet for about 11 hours a day, and it's nice to go home and not be uncomfortable!

I wear these shoes on walks but love them so much I don't want to wear any other shoe.

These shoes are excellent for my radiology job. I feel like I'm walking on clouds! After a 12 hour shift, my feet and legs no longer hurt.

I love Hoka shoes but the Bondi 8 are not like the Bondi 7. I am on my feet all day on concrete and the 7 were so plush and were comfortable. I was able to were other shoes because my plantars fasciitis was gone. These are more firm. They aren't bad just not the same as the 7

I work on concrete all day so I needed a shoe that would be cushioned and could absorb impact. I purchased the Bondi 7 about a year and a half ago and they were a dream!! So now it was time for a new pair and of course I went with the Bondi 8. Although it's a good shoe it is definitely not as cushioned as the Bondi 7. I was so disappointed.

I work almost 13 hour days and my Hoka shoes are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn to work! They provide great support to my legs, feet and back.. I definitely will purchase another pair!
