As an ex marathoner and now daily 6 miler, with a history of knee foot and hip injuries, as a human powered commuter, as someone who works on their feet the entire day, this is the shoe. If you are looking for something sturdy with a wide box good push off excellent support plush but not overly plush these are the shoe. I am guilty of even trail running in them on mild trails and have zero pain. Whether you were recovering or going out for long long runs. This is the best shoe. They are a little heavy and a little bit wide so if you were not prepared for that be mindful, I do however have a wide running foot.

Great sneaker! This is my third pair. I love the fit and support. I use them for work and walking around the gym. I plan to take them on our European trip for the miles we will walk.

So comfortable and especially with the bunion that I have on my foot! Wide toe base and very spongy soles.

Love these Hokas! I always run in Hokas and am planning a vacation that will involve a lot of walking. Wanted something cute/trendy and neutral so I could wear them with a lot of different things, these Bondi 8's are perfect! Also, I love running in them!

9.5 wide fits me perfect. Provides extra room in the toe box. Shoes very cushiony and comfortable. I do switch out the insoles for ones with better arch support.

These were purchased for a nursing student who is on her feet all day and needed all black color for uniformity. Absolutely perfect for her job and most of the medical students and staff wear these as well.

I have PF and finding comfortable shoes is a challenge! I read reviews about the Hoka's and decided to try them. The first day, I decided to put them on to go for our nightly walk and not only were they immediately comfortable, but I had no regrets as we walked! I felt that the shape of the shoes actually helped with each step as it almost felt it was rounded to make me feel like I had help in each step! I would definitely buy again, and with an upcoming trip to Disneyland, feel that I have found a great walking shoe!

As an over 70 runner, I need the comfort and support of Hoka Bondi. I've been using Hokas for years from when I ran marathons to now when I run 5Ks only. I truly believe that I am still able to run, albeit at a much slower pace, because Hoka Bondis have protected my knees.

These shoes run narrow. My previous bondi were medium width. But with the Bondi 8 i needed a wide. The sole is a bit more firm than expected but overall they feel great. No need the break them in.

I love the Bondi 8! I have been buying this shoe for a few years now and I think it's cushioning and support are one of the main reasons I am able to keep running. I'm 72 and love to run!

had previously purchased this same shoe a year ago, but after about 500 miles of wear, I was experiencing significant discomfort and getting blisters in areas where the shoe was extremely worn out.
I thought maybe it was the shoe, so I tried some other popular brands among healthcare workers and none of them worked for me. I decided to go back to my tried and truethe Bondi 8. I must say, I fell in love with them ALL OVER AGAIN!!!
Though pricey, these shoes are definitely an investment if you spend hours on your feet. The cushioning works well for my Plantar Fasciitis, but I personally don't find the shoes to be too bulky. As for the width...I don't particularly consider myself having a "wide" foot, but the wide designation gives me more room to wear thick socks without feeling like my midfoot is being squished. The pink color is super cute, too.
Would absolutely recommend these shoes, and would encourage you to try them on in person if you can to find a size that works best for you.

I have planters fasciitis and this is my 5th pair of hoka's. They are very supportive in the arch and plenty of toe space. I have a wide foot And purchasing the wide is the perfect width. It's not to wide.

Fits great - and true-to-size (women’s size 10.5)! Very cushiony, but firm too - not “mushy” like a marshmallow. Love it. Will only buy these from now on!

As a woman with big feet, I have always had trouble finding shoes that were comfortable, supportive and stylish. Sure, I could go into men's shoes, but generally speaking, the color options suck. Aging has not helped my shoe situation, as I have slight bunions on each foot and bad knees from years of running. So with this admittedly sucky attitude, I walked into a local running store and had my foot measured and an amazing sales person bring out every shoe in my size in the place to try on. I had read about Hokas, in particular the Bondi 8, but never tried it on because I didn't like the squishy off-balance feel of Oofos shoes. After measuring my foot, I realized my right foot is larger than my left by 1/2 size, this pushed me into a woman's 12 and because I always get blisters between my big toe and the second toe, I was looking for a bigger toe box style. Ended up trying the Bondi 8 in a men's 10.5, which converts to a woman's 12 Wide. They didn't have a color I wanted in store, so I went home and ordered the women's size 12W in black on black. I honestly think I have finally found shoe nirvana!!!! I can walk, nordic walk and hike with no problem. The only issues I am having is driving a manuel car, as the toe box is wider than I am used to, but I know I will get used to it - and the lack of availability and colors in my size. Thank you.

I am Student Teaching this year and bought these shoes because I am on my feet and moving throughout the day. These shoes deliver in both comfort and style. I love the pastel colors.
