Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

This pair was purchased as a gift but I have the same pair and absolutely love them!

I have recommended Hoka Bondi 7's to everyone I know. I have arthritis in one of my hips and the 7's are the only shoe I can wear. When I heard the Bondi 8's had more cushion I immediately ordered a pair. I put them on and expected the same cushy comfort as my 7"s . My foot did not settle into the shoe and where the tongue is sewn in it rubbed my foot through a pair of substantial socks. Plus the fact they look ridiculous they are so wide. Please bring back the 7's and give your 7 fans a choice!!! ( I own 3 pairs of 7's and I'm going online to try and find the 7's still available).

Very supportive!

Comfortable and breathable, but very bulky and not an attractive shoe. I'd still purchase then again because if comfort.

The Bondi 8 is not as cushiony as the 6 or 7. What did you do? You finally came out with some amazing colors for the Bondi, but they're not as comfortable as the previous editions.

I am not sure about these shoes just yet. I do love my ASICS shoes. These shoes have a large toe area, which will take me some time. Also the arch support isn't as high as in my ASICS. I may switch the inner soles and see if I like them better. I will let you know.

I use everyday for work and working out .

I bought these for my daughter as a Christmas present she's a beautician and she's on her feet all day long and she was always complaining about her feet hurting in her lower back since she has been wearing the shoes she has had no back pain and no foot pain definitely a great product. I am a nurse, and I wear them as well but not the Bondies a different type still the best shoe orthopedically

Bought as a gift for my sister. She loved them

Great for walking all day when working No aching feet or legs.

Comfortable Tough Solid

I stand on concrete all day and my heel hurt so bad. Bought these and it stopped!! Buy these!!

I returned these shoes ,they rubbed under my ankles on both shoes. My Bondi 7 s did not do this.

Heel was too thick

Bondi 8 is more narrow than the 7, which necessitated my getting a wide width instead of regular. I like the colors offered in regular widths more than those offered in wide widths. I'm not a fan of the wide sole, or the new shoelaces (I liked the stripe!) and the old ones seemed stretchier, which I like. The heel of these seems to slip, where the 7s didn't. I do not like the attached tongue. It constantly pulls the tongue to the side. The body of the shoe and cushioning are still great. I hope the next iteration corrects these issues. I've been wearing Hokas for 5 years and will continue to buy them, as long as the cushioning stays the same.

Comfortable, supportive, well, fitting, and great colors! I will absolutely buy Hoka products again.

I couldn't get the Bondi 7 so I tried the Bondi 8. I sent it back. It is not as plush and the heel sits in the wrong spot on the back of my foot. Sure wish I could get the Bondi 7

Great sneakers!

People make fun of how the look " clod hoppers " amish shoe" so I am self conscious wearing them! They are very comfortable although!

I bought these shoes to accommodate inserts. It has worked out very well.

I'm an RN and I use these for work. Wish they had a line for nurses specifically just for body fluids. As for comfort, does great EXCEPT I have a slightly higher instep than I guess a normal person so the top of my foot get a little extra pressure. Not a rubbing or chaffing feeling at all but slightly sore at the end of a 12 hrs shift. Now that may just be my anatomy but I don't think I read anyone response regarding a high instep. So I wanted to add that for any future buyers with high insteps!

I don't feel plantar fasciitis pain when I wear them. They are very comfortable, but after about 8 to 10 hours I do have to take them off and then I pot on my Hoka sandals!

I couldn't get over how big they look...sorry

Loved the hefty sole of this shoe but I need more side support than what is given.

I am a pharmacy technician and I work on my feet 8-10 hours a day. I started waking up with stiff knees like a grandma with arthritis, even though I'm 29 with no prior knee issues. I did a bunch of research and got these. I haven't had stiff knees since then!!
