Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 8

Hoka Bondi 7 was my favorite shoe ever. Bondi 8 seems smaller and less comfortable. I'll size up

I am normally a wide width and I ordered a women's size 10D but it was too narrow. I always loved Bondi 7's so will have to keep trying different Hokas.

The arch support didn't hit quite the right spot for me and the styling (VERY wide toe) made me look like I was wearing flippers/duck feet!

I was hoping for a shoe that would support my feet, especially for pronation. It was a super comfy shoe but, even with my orthotics in, my feet were still pronating.

I'm disappointed in the Bondi 8. The Bondi 7 was good but to increase the bulkiness of the shoe makes it look like a clodhopper on my foot. When I put my bare foot beside the shoe the difference is unbelievable. Have to return them.

Did not like the fit. Felt too wide.

It was too wide and I needed a smaller size and width B.

I found it very difficult to fit my foot into these sneakers, even after significantly loosening the laces. Toe box is very VERY tight. Shoe colors were stunning, I absolutely would've loved to have kept the shoes even despite the crazy high price. However, I felt like circulation was being cut off across the top of my feet yet my heels were sliding up and down in the back. Had to return. Not sure who these would fit properly, certainly not for my wide feet, despite ordering a wide width.

I wear a 71/2 wide. The Bondi 8 is too narrow and the toe box is low and tight. This has good cushioning and is the correct length for my size but too tight overall. Rincon 3 gave plenty of room in the toe box and the rest of the shoe is just a little wider than the Bondi 8 giving it a more comfortable fit for wide size. Saying that it has less cushion in the toe area and just a little more hard of a feel. For a wide size shoe the Bondi 8 is just too tight fits like a regular shoe size not a wide. Will have to return this shoe squeezes foot and hurts.

These were clunky with a very large toe box.

So cute but too tight in the middle of my foot. I wear a 6.5M

These were super cute, but hit my arch in the wrong spot and were unbearable to continue wearing. It only took about two hours for me to know this. I would recommend first time Hoka wearers go to a store to find the right style and fit first, then purchase here.

These were very bulky and run big probably by a half size up. My boyfriend called them clown shoes and his mom agreed that they looked weird on me so I returned them. The soles were too large for me and they made squeaky noises when I walked in them. I heard such good things about Hoka’s so I was surprised when they arrived.

These felt like a cloud but looked like clown shoes, as someone else mentioned. Ridiculous. Going back.

I didn’t feel much arch support in these shoes. The base is so wide I felt like I would trip over my own feet. I returned them

Felt bigger and wider than other Hoka lines. But to be fair, I did lose some weight since the last one I got in another model

Larger in look and feel than other HOKA models I've had

Unfortunately these shoes were very uncomfortable. I have flat feet and I felt pain in my arch when wearing these shoes

I’ve worn Hoka Bondi 8 before purchasing this pair. However, I found these to be uncomfortable. The arch support was very high and the toe width too wide.

Just not the shoe for people with knee pain. Too rocky and bouncy. Just want a good walking shoe and I've given up on Brooks.

the toe box was too narrow.

Initially these shoes felt fine. However, the more I wear these, the more narrow they feel. My toes feel squished. I buy Hoka’s for the wider toe box, but now I’m not so sure. I will definitely be replacing these shoes with ones with a wider toe box.

I am used to be on clouds and will be sticking to that brand! I found these very uncomfortable to walk in! They gave my left foot a blister. I returned them.

Had to return. Toe box has been made smaller since I bought my much-loved Bondi 7s. Even though I bought wide, it rubbed in the front. Wish they would maintain at least one shoe last with a rounded toe and roomy box.
