I originally got Hoka Elevon and loved them but wanted something even more cushioned to support my weight loss and reduce back pain post partum., so decided on Bondi. By a stroke of luck, I snagged the castle rock colorway which looks awesome with so many outfits, exercise or otherwise. Very comfortable, especially after broken in after a few walks. Highly recommend.

This shoe fits very differently from the Bondi 7. It is tighter per size, and narrower. I ordered a wide; had I not, the shoe would not have worked. I find my 7s very comfortable regarding pressure going down into the heel, but I do find it them a little "loose-goosey" in terms a lateral support. Perhaps these 8s will correct that deficiency - remains to be seen. I will update (if possible) once I've worn them a few days.

I'm a massage therapist. I'm on my feet all day. I love my hokas because they have a wide enough area for my toes. I an so comfortable all day. Will never stop buying them

Love the cushion and style of these Bondi 8 am trying hard to find solution to the foot pain they cause me. Feels like I'm walking on a hard seam on the inside edge of my heel. I'm size 7.5 W ordered a size 8 cuz that's usually what the shoe stores throw me in since they don't have wide sizes. Had the problem with the size 8 so I returned them (return process was awesome) ordered a 7.5 W. still having same issue. Googled my pain saw a suggestion about Heel lifts, will try this with my 7.5 W shoes if pain still persist I will have to return. Trying hard not to though love love love the cushion.

the toe area is to loose for my feet and they shift around and cause calluses

I love how energized I feel wearing my Bondi 8 sneakers. Arch support is very important to me. My Bondi 8's offer superb arch support. It's like walking on a cloud.

I love the Bondi 8 shoe. I was skeptical of the new design, especially after reading all of the reviews, but am glad I didn't listen to those reviews. This shoe feels amazing!

I'm 60 and try to walk as many times a week as I can. I've had operations on both of my feet, MTP (Hallux) joint fusion. So I'm pretty limited as to what kind of shoes I wear. I've tried several different brands but I can honestly say these are the best! They are so comfortable, cushioning is good and they just plain look good (the image I used is the virtual try on)..

I am an avid hiker. I am also a senior citizen. I need a shoe that is dependable, comfortable and supportive. Hoka checks all the boxes. My granddaughter is a college gymnast and wears no other sneaker.
Wouldn't give them up for anything !!

I walk a brisk three miles pretty much everyday--either inside or out and HOKA shoes are the best support I have found. I buy mine online because they are true to size and the customer service is great. Free shipping and free returns for for 30 days if you're not satisfied. Highly recommend you try them.

I run 6 days a week and walk 7. My only complaints are they wear out too quickly for what they cost and it's often difficult to find 8W.

The left side fit fine, however, the right side was off, and my foot was resting on the side molding of the shoe. I ordered wide and I don't have wide feet, but just thought I'd like extra room since I usually only go walking. Maybe I got an imperfect cut, but I also feel like I should stick to buying shoes in person.

When I first bought these shoes, I tried on both the standard and wide versions and decided to go with standard. Turned out to be very uncomfortable and rubbed my inner arches in a weird way. I exchanged them for the wide size, thinking it wouldn't make a difference, but it completely solved the problem! I bought them to train for a race but I wear them everywhere because they're just so comfortable and squishy. I normally have achey knees when I'm running regularly but I've had no knee pain in three weeks of using these shoes. Very happy and will be buying another pair when these wear out! If you have low arches like me I'd highly recommend that you look at the widths on the size chart very carefully- I don't wear wide shoes in any other brand so just keep that in mind.

I am a teacher & I have hallux limitus in both of my feet. It is sooo painful to wear ballet flats or anything without a ton of support. These shoes are very nice looking and I absolutely pair them with everything for work! Most of all, my feet don't hurt by the end of the day - I don't know about running in them bc they have the wider sides that are supposed to stabilize your gait and I'm more used to a neutral shoe BUT for walking/working these are the best shoes I own. I have bought the carbon line and also the Clifton's. I would pick these over all of my other hokas any day for work.
