Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I only buy Hoka Bondi shoes for work and home. The Bondi 8 does not have the same fit as the past versions. The fit is much tighter and some shorter. The tongue has a weird connection to one side that makes it difficult to adjust. The support of the sole is still great!! The only reason for 2 stars. I would return these for a Bondi 7, but I have worn them at work. Very disappointed.

I have been a Hoka customer for 8 years. I work part-time at a fast-paced fulfillment center. I always wear the Bondi but the Bondi 8 has changed. The MED width is too wide. I don't feel supported. I am wearing thicker socks and trying to make these work bc I can't find anymore Bondi 7's. :-(

Would highly recommend they to everyone

These shoes aren't terrible, they just aren't the right fit me. Although they provide great stability when running, they caused blisters on the side of my big toes after maybe the 10th run. Prior to the blisters, the first 5 or so runs, the arches dug into my foot until they finally softened up. I did try out the shoes for the 30 days but ultimately ended up returning for a different style. I was having some IT band pain along my right knee so had switched to these shoes from Brooks, and the pain did subside for the most part with these shoes.

I wish these shoes had a little larger toe box!

I was not thrilled with how bulky they are.

I wear them at work and I'm on my feet all day. They have been great so far!

The Bondi didn't have nearly enough height to it. Width was snug but even if I got a wide it would feel like it was crushing my foot from above. I've never had this problem with other shoes.

It's the comfortable shoe I have ever worn.

These bondi 8 are great! They're super comfortable. At first they seemed chunky for me but after a while I got used to them and the comfort omg 10/10

I am a full time track and field coach! Constantly on my feet for up to 10 hours a day showing drills, coaching, ect. These shoes have provided me so much comfort and have eliminated any discomfort with my Achilles that I had before!

For work

Love these sneakers. Very comfortable.

These shoes are amazing!! I put them on right out the box and have walked 2.5 miles five days a week; I have never gotten a blister. Would recommend!

Beautiful sneakers and also so comfortable, true to size

Always Hoka shoes are reliable and top quality.

This brand was recommended to me by several friends with back problems. We all look for good padding and support and the Bondi 8s are both. The reps in customer service were very helpful with some shipping issues I had. Would definitely order from Hoka again.

Because this is my second pair and they are black, vs, my neon summer pair that stand out a bit! Love these Hokas because they are feet saviors!

Thus is my 4th pair of Hokas. I have always worn bondi 7 which apparently is not made anymore so I bought bondi 8. These are NOTHING like bondi 7. Every nurse I know wears bondi 7. Not sure why they are not available anymore but the bondin8 hurts my feet.

I love the feel of these shoes. I feel supported and comfortable, and they make want want to go farther than before.

I stand and walk all day for my job and these shoes are fantastic!!!!

This is my 5th pair of HOKAS as I have hiking and walking versions and they are the best shoe out there to me!! So comfortable and supportive:) and they last forever!!

This is my second pair of Hoka's, absolutely will never buy another brand again. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and Fibromyalgia...these sneakers have been a miracle for me! I'm able to get back to the gym, go for walks and shop without pain! Thank you for making such an awesome sneaker!

My orthopedic doctor and staff recommended Hoka sneakers, specifically the bondi. It feels like I am walking on clouds. I own new balance and vionics but the Hoka's are superior. I can walk a 5 k without even thinking about my feet. I was coming back from my walks with numb, sore painful feet. Sneakers are so light and comfortable. I went up a half size.
