Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

ok with products but not ok with price

These are my go to walking shoes. I'm not a runner but my feet love these shoes.

Very disappointed that these shoes have serial numbers on the outside of the shoes by the heels of the shoe. Very ugly even though the numbers are small. I still know the numbers are there. Looks tacky.

I primarily use these shoes for walking. I have extremely arthritic feet and Hoka shoes were recommended to me by my physical therapist over a year ago. But, I don't like the new way Hoka has attached the "tongue" to the side of the shoe. I'd prefer to have it free and loose so that I can adjust it myself.

I have struggled with arthritis in both big toes for over 10 years and get cortisone injections regularly for the pain and discomfort. I play tennis twice a week, but needed soft shoes for recovery. What a delightful surprise to slip these on my feet. The pressure is immediately lifted off my toes and transferred to me heel and insole. The rolling sensation while I walk is energizing. So happy I got these!

I wore these a few days but the toe box was too tight, I was wearing the bondi 7 and loved it. I loved the feel of the bondi 8 and the color but it was hurting my toes. I ordered the wide shoe on this but for some reason the new design has the toe box more narrow.

I am 68 and have high arches. Without arch support, my feet start to really hurt within an hour. I have been stopping people wearing this brand and all said the same thing; "You won't regret it." I bought these and am totally in love. I walked thru the Costa Rica rain forest, spent all day going thru the Panam Canal and walked all over the old section on Cartagena. No problems.

So comfortable and perfect stability

I love wearing these as everyday shoes in the city. When I'm on my way to catch my train in the morning, I know that these shoes will help me to get to my train on time. I'm not kiddingthey help me walk really quickly, which is great when you live in a city. However, I find that they're actually a little too big for running because I tend to run more slowly in this pair than any of my other running shoes. My right foot pronates, so I do need some extra cushion. Verdict: great for everyday, fine for slow runs and jogging, but not for racing or harder runs.

Too much sole, not enough shoe cover. Tight fit at right size

Looks bulky, but very comfortable and lightweight. Highly recommend.

I love them!!! I own 2 Clifton's but Bondi's are my favorite at the moment

I suffer from extreme foot pain in the ball of my left foot. I needed a supportive shoe to walk in. I would but this shoe again

Not good for everyday runners. Feels like trying to run on sand. No kickback whatsoever.

Love the look. Comfortable.

I have a normal arch foot and my foot just kept hanging over the inner sides of the shoe. I'm not sure getting a wide would've fixed that. Also way too bulky for my runs. Exchanged for the rincon 3s and I love them

I use these Hoka Bondi 8 for my 12 hour shifts!

I use to love Hoka's but my recent pair of the Bondi 8 just isn't as comfortable. My first purchase ever was the Bondi 6 which was super comfortable. The new 8 has done something with the design specifically around the ankles where it feels so tight. The shoe itself is no where near as comfortable as my Bondi 6. I'm not very pleased with the new pair.

Ridiculously comfortable!! Perfect for long shifts at the hospital and long walks at the park

I absolutely love these shoes. It has all around comfort. I usually have heel pain if I'm on my feet for too long but these don't let that happen. I recommend trying the bondi 8.

I broke my ankle in three places about 5 months ago, and these shoes have undoubtedly helped with my recovery. The stability (wide soles) give me the confidence and the comfort (insoles) give me the ability to walk longer and thus get stronger. I also have a pair of Bondi7 which I love equally!

The Bondi 7 is more comfortable than the Bondi 8. The Bondi 8 gave me discomfort to my arch area on both feet, So I returned the them.

Keep me going through long shifts as a nurs in the hospital

Purchased Hoka for the first time at a local store. Just outside the stores's 60 day return policy one of the shoes had a defective sole. Contacted Hoka customer service and they promptly provided a full credit to purchase a new pair. The shoes are some of the most comfortable I've ever purchased.

Bought my shoes in August of 2022.. by January they already felt like they need replacing.. love the cushioned sole but feet hurt again and sole feels flat already
