Ordered the wide version after trying on the normal width due to some nerve issues in my feet. While the wife gave my toes the room needed, I couldn’t get a good lockdown. Going to stick with the Cliftons. Great shoe that just didn’t fit me.

I bought the men's extra, extra wide because there were no extra, extra wide sizes available for women. There are still few and far between and it is very disappointing. They are too clunky and I only wear them around the house. No complaints on the support and extra cushioning. My major complaint is that there are TOO FEW extra, extra wide for women. I did eventually find 1 pair in a women's Bondi but it took months of searching. MORE PLEASE.

Very well made. Just a little too small in length and width. Will reorder half size up.

The Bondi 9s are my go-to sneaker, for road/tread running, walking and casual nights out.

After 25 years in the Army, my feet are in rough shape. My Hokas (I have several pair) are more comfortable than other competitive brands, and I've worn a lot of them. This was my first purchase of a Bondi 9, purchased primarily because they come in 2E width, but they're great looking too. They cushion impact when I walk, and they also offer good support. I now work in a large hospital, and Hoka is by far the at the top of the list when it comes to folks on their feet all day.

Hoka Clifton's were my first experience and they are awesome.

Very comfortable shoe. Not as soft as the Clifton 10. More firm, but still comfortable.

Unfortunately, I didn't keep this shoe because the toe box was a little too narrow and it rubbed on my bunionettes. Also, they were not cushiony enough against the bottoms of my feet. I have neuropathy and need a supportive shoe, but it also needs to be soft against the bottoms of my feet.

First time having platform height tennis shoes. They are very cushy, with a wide tread, comfortable, and seem to be helping to alleviate the planters fasciitis that I bought them for. It is hard to find 4e wide shoes so pleased the Bondi was able to meet said requirement. When walking the tread is noisy on concrete compared to my Brooks and when driving because of the extra wide tread, I find my foot hangs up a little bit when I transition from pedal to pedal versus my Brooks, so something to be careful about. Overall, so far a positive experience.

Bought these for my partner. In the Bondi 8 he wore a 2E, but in these we had to exchange for 4E so they appear to be narrower than the older style.

Probably a great shoe for some people, but I unfortunately found it to be way too narrow.

The shoe was short versus my other running shoe and was too narrow for my foot, needed more toe room.

Good upgrade from Bondi 8. Although I got EE width they feel very tight on sides, some would say a lot of support.

Too much arch, was uncomfortable after 5 minutes of wearing. The width of 4E mens was good, which is hard to find, but the uncomfortable arch was why had to return.

Loved the look, but too firm. I need a bit more cushioning to help my knees. I have been using Brooks Cascadia and Glycerine for years but the previous Cascadias were more cushioned.

A little small. Also in less than 10 days developed a small tear in fabric near one of the eyelets.

They took a little getting used to due to the amount of "squish" compared to shoes with a firmer sole, but once adjusted they are very comfortable.
