Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Own 5 prs of Hokas for several years, 2 of which are Bondi. 10-12 hrs standing in a lab, developed plantar fasciatis and recently fractured left ankle and smashed toes on right foot. This one was disappointing. Cheaply made - back ribbon made of string, and cushioning not the same. Please return to your previous standards.

I have always had trouble finding comfortable shoes, I am on my feet all day and enjoy walking, so far these are great

My sister said that her Hoka's were the best athletic shoe she has ever had.she was right, but don't tell her I said that. Love the balance, comfort and fit. Well worth the investment! Looking at my second pair right now!

Tan an 8k on Thanksgivingnice shoe.

They are comfy, but need arch support

I've been a retail manager for more than 30 years. All of those years of walking on concrete floors coupled with being blessed with high arches has done a number on my feet. When a coworker recommended Hoka to get me through all the extra holiday hours I had to try them. They are amazingly lightweight and have fantastic arch support. I feel as though I have a bounce to my walls. The only drawback is technically as a store manager I am not supposed to wear athletic shoes. I wish Hoka made a loafer style with the same features as the athletic shoe.

I love the shoe, but would like to order a pair of inserts made specifically for this shoe size 7.

I have difficult feet. After left foot surgery I was turned on to these from my podiatrist. I usually wear Bondi 7 but Bondi 8 is just as comfortable. Not too much cushion to throw me off balance and I still have a soft firm support.

Started out comfortable. But after 5 or 6 times wearing them, the bottom outer side of foot started to feel like a blister has started to form. Return for a refund!

I bought these to see if I could help my feet not hurt when I'm on them all day as a nurse! These have been the best shoes I have ever tried. Even got my husband a pair and so far he loves his too!

These shoes are cute, and quality! My only complaint is they are firmer than other past models I've had from Hoka. I am a health care worker and am on my feet the entire day. In the past my Hoka's were supported but also plush. This model is much firmer than I expected and my feet and back are not happy at the end of a long shift.

Really like the Hoka Bondi 8. Had the Arahi 6 and the Bondi 7 SR prior to the Bondi 8. Both the Arahi 6 and the Bondi 7 SR didn't last long before the heels had holes in the material. Anyone else? Hopefully these Bondi 8's last a bit longer, they're very comfortable and supportive. They are sized small so go bigger and wider than you usually do.

Super comfortable shoe. Really good arch support. Fits great. Good for walking and for running. This is the first pair of Hoka shoes I have ever had. The price seemed expensive at first to spend on a shoe for work. But now I think they were worth every penny. It was money well spent.

I love Bondi! This is my 7th pair.

Great fit. Very comfortable for standing and walking for many hours per day

Purchased these, after trying them on in a store after I returned a different brand I had read a bunch of hype on. The store employee bragged how these were like standing on pillows, I took the bait and tried them on. She couldn't be more correct. I had achey sore feet from standing 12-18 hrs a day in all kinds of terrain 5-7 days a week. I have had these for almost a month, my feet are so much happier and less painful at the end of the day. I ordered a wide and found that next time I will order the xl wide, as the wide feels like regular shoes. I love these shoes even though, I feel as though I'm wearing moon shoes. All worth it to not have achey feet all day and at night when I'm trying to sleep/recover.

I love Hokas so much that now all my family members wear them too.

I purchased numerous pair of Hokas but this pair seems to be narrow when I ordered wide. I have custom made orthotics I I wed to place in my sneakers. My other pair are too tight with the orthotics so I thought wide would work. They do not. My toes are pinched and very uncomfortable I would like to return them but it is probably too late

These shoes are great. I bought 3 pairs of Bondi 7 in the last years and was concerned that they were no longer available in my size so I tried Bondi 8 and I also tried wide. Both worked great. Same excellent cushioning and support. One foot is wider than the other so size wide was perfect for that foot and I just laced up the other shoe tighter and that worked fine as well. I would definitely buy these again.

Nice shoe for long walks but due to old trauma to one foot shoes hurt after many hours if wear. I was hoping this wouldn't but it does

I bought these because I've been ramping up my miles walking for fitness and decided it was time to get some really good shoes. So glad that I did. My first few steps in them I was so happy with how cushioned and supportive they felt. Miles later and my feet, knees and lower back felt amazing. Never going to be without a pair.

If I know I'll be on my feet a lot during the course of my day, I make sure to use my Hokas!

I bought these because of my bad knees, and let me tell you....they are amazing! Helpful when standing for long periods or walking. The cusioning is perfect!

No break in needed. Walked miles right out of the box. Very stable.
