Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

These are the comfiest sneakers I've ever owned. It truly feels like I'm wearing pillows. Wore these for multiple all-day walking tours and didn't feel sore. A little too bulky for running, but amazing walking shoes.

Having had both knees and hips replaced in the last few years, these shoes have helped me move more, with more comfort, and with style! I wear them almost daily and walk several miles most days! I highly recommend them!

Great support. They do "break in" and loosen up so don't go big.

From the first day these shoes have been wildly comfortable - not only no break in time, but I've been able to walk for miles. This is no joke, as with chronic plantar fasciitis and recent knee surgery walking has been hard. My hokas have the right structure and support while also having the cushioning and rolling to make them wildly comfortable. I've already taken them as my primary shoes to Geneva and Kazakhstan, and am taking them to New Zealand soon!

I am a long-time Disneyland Annual Passholder,and I spend a lot of time in the parks walking and standing. These shoes leave my feet far less pained at the end of a day of walking ten to fifteen miles. I am plus sized, so comfortable shoes make a BIG difference. Keeping up with my mom (on her scooter) and my teens is easier in these shoes.

With this shoes I'm able to walk for hours without my feet getting tired, thing that I couldn't do with another shoes

Best athletic shoes I have owned

Love these shoes. They were extraordinarily comfortable right out of the box. They run a half size large, if you are between sizes order down. This isn't one of those tennis shoes that you need to order a half size larger. They run a tiny bit wide through the footbed but I laced them up nice and tight so not a problem even with my narrow feet.

I have a bondi 7 and it was so soft to walk-in. Like a cloud. It has really helped me feet. So wanted to purchase another in black. But it seems you stopped making hoka bondi 7. So I tried the bondi 8. Very disappointed! I returned it since it was not nearly as soft as the bondi 7.

Compared to other shoes, these are very supportive and give lots of cushioning for extended walks.

Super comfortable shoes.

I use this model for street walking. Like previous Bondi models it is very comfortable. The only thing that bothered me at the beginning was the high lip above the heel. It seemed different and stiff, but it is better now.

I have 2 bad feet!!! They pronate, I wear an orthotic, poor circulation, and swell throughout the day. This shoe covers it all! Love the laces. Never come untied and gives with swelling. This is my 8th pair. My latest is the Bondi 8. I truly can't live without my HOKAS!!!!!

These shoes are well made. However, I have not been able to "break them in." They hurt my feet and I am beginning to realize that I will not be able to wear them for long periods of time. I loved the first pair of HOKAS that I purchased, but these are a different fit. Disappointed!

Absolutely love these shoes. I had to switch them for a smaller size. Hoka was amazing and sent me the proper size with ease!!! Love this brand.

Bought them to bop around in and have been loving them!

Super comfortable for 12 hours on my feet. Really no break in time was needed.

I have been buying Bondis for years and the 8s are NOT comfortable! Much more narrow in the toe box than previous models and I don't feel like there is the same amount of cushion. Only plus is the color selection!

I live in these shoes. I am unhappy when I have to wear other shoes. What else can I say?

Not loving the colors that were offered. Purchased what I was offered in my size, but feel self conscious wearing them since I think they look like Clown feet they are so wide and the color so loud. I have been a HOKA customer for 6 years and have loved the prior BONDI's that I wore. This one felt too narrow in the regular size and I had to go to the wide size. But the new style definitely feels different to me.

I simply love this shoe. There is so much comfort and space. It is the most supportive shoe that I've ever had. I am on my feet all day and you still get me an ankle pain. But now with these shoes I could last a lot longer on my feet and at the end of my work day I have no pain. Best purchase/investment I have ever made for my joints.

I love love love my Bondi 7's, so I had high hopes for Bondi 8, but no such luck. There is a hard piece of plastic near the arch that doesn't feel good at all. I wish that they hadn't changed the design of this shoe, because I have two pair of the Bondi 7, one for work and one for home. Now, I need to find a new shoe.

Love everything about them except the laces-my 1st pair of hokas had a better quality shoe lace-these are cheaper otherwise a good shoe

Most comfortable shoes I have ever own

I walk a lot and I'm on my 3rd pair of Hoka.I absolutely love them and have convinced at least 5 friends to also purchase. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned.
