Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

I need one with high stability and instead accidentally bought one with little/no. I'm not sure how to exchange it for the right one nor even what the right one would be.

I do miss the Bondi 7 as they felt more comfortable to me but the Bondi 8 are still a good sneaker. However, I had to return the lilac/elderberry color because they look more purple in person than a very light purple shown in the image online. Hope this helps others if they are considering this sneaker :)

Bondi 6 was perfect. Not a fan of the flared out sole on this model. Please change it back!

Long time Bondi shoe girl. These are completely different and not comfortable. They have less cushion and are firmer. My feet hurt after wearing all day at work. Would not recommend. I'm on the search for the Bondi 7 somewhere online to go back to those. Also only a 30 day return policy?!! Come on HOKA.

So far wife likes Bondi 8 but sad because you doing away with Bondi 7. Hope these stand up to what Bondi 7 was.

The size ran really big compared to my beloved Bondi 7 and I found the Bondi 8 really hard to run in.

I just bought a pair of Bondi 8. I was used to the Bondi 7 and the Bondi 8 DEFINTELY does not have as much cushion. Loved the feeling of being on a cloud with the Bondi 7. I will keep my Bondi 8 since I still think it is one of the most comfortable brands to walk in. I just wish they hadn't changed the Bondi 7.

I bought these hoping to add a pair of shoes in the rotation with more cushion to help counter some mild metatarsalgia. Unfortunately they are heavy and make me feel very sluggish, like I'm wearing cinder blocks on my feet. They also look like bricks- not cute. More importantly, they aggravate the metatarsalgia more than my other shoes. I'm disappointed because I have absorbed a lot of Hoka hype from the running community and I was hoping to have a new go-to brand. Weekly mileage is approx. 50, 10 or 20 more or less depending on where I am in training.

I have Feet that ache a lot and these shoes help out so much. I bought them in black and think they even look passable when not on the trail. I would but then in a heartbeat again

I love my Hoka shoes. I now own 6 pair and my feet are thanking me.

I had cloves because everyone raves about them and man.. they hurt my feet so bad. I would come home in so much pain and decided to buy these. Man they saved my feet so much! Only complaint is the base isn't wide with the shoe, so it feels like I'm stepping on the sides of my shoes.

I walk a lot at work and these shoes were perfect

I've been wearing the Hoka's for about 6 mos now. This is my 2nd pair. It feels like I'm walking on air. No time for adjustment to get used to them. Feet are so cushioned. Feels amazing! Best shoe ever, you won't be disappointed.

Best shoes I've ever put on my feet. It's like they're giving my feet a big hug

Uncomfortable

I have had problems with my arch. I got a stress fracture, after it healed I got the Bondi X and an insert. Felt great to walk. Good support. I bought the Bondi 8 and love them also.I have good support, can walk with comfort. Bondi 8, I had to get a size 9, usually wear an 8.

These shoes are SO comfortable!! I'm a nurse so I'm on my feet 12 hours or more a day. I also love the color of these shoes. They're a dark gray so they hide the dirty well!

They personally didn't work out for me, I bought the wine size but they don't feel like it and they are very snug. I noticed sole wasn't glued on right so it looks like they're ripping. Lastly my back aches after walking all day on my 8 hour shift, other brands support my feet better then these.

I love Hoka but I don't like the new Bondi 8. They are not as cushioned as the 7.

The Bondi's are the best shoe for me. Love the support they provide and the colors are amazing as well. If you ever need someone to

Love, love, love these shoes!

After wearing the bondi 7 I couldn't wait until the bondi 8 were out. Oh my gosh! Horrible. My feet were aching me after a shift. I am so disappointed.please bring back the bondi 7

Love my Hoka sneakers. They are very comfortable and the cushion in them are awesome.

Amazingly lightweight but supportive, lovely color., very good looking sneaker

Sthe says her first run was her personal record, and she had no pain after her run which was a first.
