Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 9

I love the new Hoka Bondi 9! I was a huge fan of the Bondi 7. I probably ran through a dozen pair of those over several years. The Bondi 8 didn't work for me at all. It felt like a completely different shoe, and I had to try something else. So, I was a bit skeptical when the Bondi 9 was released. When mine arrived, I put them on and went for a run. Six miles later, I knew they were a keeper! Great cushion with excellent support. So thankful I gave them a try! Great shoe that I will keep going back to in the future.

It doesn't seem like a "Hoka Bondi" to me because all the other Bondis have been great. This version is clunky and uncomfortable You had a good thing...this ruined Bondi for me.

Would recommend for teachers who are on their feet all day.

Just got my second pair of Hoka Bondi 9slove them! The cushioning and support are unbeatable, making every step comfortable. My first pair held up great, so I had to get another. The only downside is the price, but the comfort and durability make it worth it!

After wearing Bondi 7 and 8, I was excited to try the new Bondi 9. I ordered wide to get more room in the toe box. The shoe is narrower than any of my previous regular width pairs. Sad to have to return them.

On my feet all day everyday, with NO discomfort!

I love the look, color(Cosmic Grey/White) and feel while walking

I absolutely LOVE the Hoka Bondi 9. I attend trade shows for my job and this shoe is a must for long days standing and walking. So much room without being bulky or heavy. These shoes are perfection!

I was recently diagnosed with metatarsalgia, and had quite a bit of pain. My friend told me she had gotten relief with Hoka. I tried a pair in a local shoe store with premium inserts for heel and metatarsal pain. I've worn the Bondi 9 for 4 weeks and have had no pain whatsoever. I then ordered another color from Hoka for summer wear. I'm very impressed with this shoe, and highly recommend them.

My husband recommended Hoka to me because he saw so many people wearing them in his gym. I needed something that made me feel comfortable walking, as I have, unfortunately, fallen a few times. I love my Bondi 9 shoes!!! I feel safe when I wear them in the house and when out walking. I'm 76 years young and plan to keep moving for many more years.

Straight out of the box, no break-in required. Crazy comfy. Walked 4 miles the other day, 5.5 mi yesterday, zero pain. It's perfect. I'm gonna have to buy multiple pairs once more colors come out. I'm dreading any change they will make to this one. Thank You Hoka. Tempted to buy your stock, haha.

These shoes are super comfortable and supportive!

I live the Bondi 8 and have been looking forward to the 9's. However there is a lack of color choices. Will you release additional colors?

Bondi 9 wide fits like Bondi 7 regular

Make sure to tie your shoes every time you wear them. These shoes are so great with people who have serious arthritis. These shoes would be great for every day walking too.

Great shoes to work! I'm on my feet all shift ling, this shoes are perfect and don't hurt my hurt. Very light and flexibles!!

So I got the Men's Bondi 9 two weeks ago. After wearing them two times they felt so soft and a lot of cushioning-love them now. Use them for jogging and I can run faster with them than the Bondi 8. I can now jog a mile and a half in 18 minutes-79 year old male.

My favorite brand since an accident, doctor recommended HOKA for my recovery walking. I got five pairs Bondi 8, love them. I was very excited for the Bondi 9, big disappointment, too narrow I exchanged it for wide version, not really, doesn't fit good like Bondi 8. I can't make another exchange or return, sad

I have less pain in my legs and feet. Shoes are so comfy

My pair literally fell apart before the year warranty. Almost caused me to fall. I was instructed to return them because they were obviously defective, and it was before the warranty expired. There was no communication then to my surprise they returned my damage sneakers with a form letter informing me the warranty expired. Totally untrue as I had the original order and the date. When I complained I was then told they have a right to refuse the return if they think the sneaker were damaged by the customer. I'm 68 years old and used the sneaker minimally. Terrible customer service- blaming the customer when the produce was obviously defective. Lying about the warrantly and hoping you will get frustrated and let it go. I won't. I plan to file an offical consumer complaint with Better Business Bureau and other agencies. Terrible company. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. There are much better quality and ethical shoe companies.

Comfortable and cute

I'm not crazy about the cloth material but good support for your feet.

I'm on my feet all day in my Hokas and then I change into my other Hokas and go workout. They save my legs, feet, how, and back every day. Paired with compression socks you can't go wrong. Highly recommend.

I am disappointed in this latest version of the Bondi - Although it has great cushion, I do not like the upper part of the shoe - It doesn't feel secure, feels a little sloppy.
