Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 9

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.

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.

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

These shoes are super comfortable and supportive!

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.

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!!

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 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.

Comfortable and cute

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.

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

These shoes are very comfortable and fit very well. They are very sturdy and support your feet.

DAILY TO WORK AND WALKING

I have 2 pair of 8 and the SR. Im excited with the 9 an order the wide but still narrow now, Im confused if Im going to return and exchange with the xtra wide or go back to Bondi8. I have plantar fasciitis and 8 help me a lot.

Hoka always makes a very comfortable shoe. We have about 7 pair between my wife and I in our home. Not a cheap date, but they last and serve different purposes and are an outstanding shoe. This one in particular was purchased because it was very close to a Tiffany Blue and you saved me a trip to that store for Valentine's Day. :) my wife received her gift early and absolutely loves them. They are lightweight. Perfect for a run or running around town.

I purchased my first pair of Hokas because of lower back pain After the first day of wearing it was gone! The Bondis are my latest purchase and they are my favorite! Nice and supportive and so much cushion!

This is my first pair of Hoka's and I'm still iffy about them mainly because of the thick sole that I'm not use to. I've wore them out and about and almost tripped myself up a couple times just trying to get the feel of them. I'm use to wearing sketchers for many years so this is a big step up for me! I recently had knee surgery back in October for a meniscus tear and they had to put a plastic anchor in there as well so I can tell you that the Hoka's do help concerning the cushioning that I need for impact of walking, I guess is the right words to use! I also have plantar fasciitis so I do notice that it helps in this area too. When it gets warmer weather I plan on putting these babies to the test by getting out there and walking again! Let's pray I don't hit the pavement!

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.

I purchased these shoes to replace my previous pair and they are very comfortable. They fit very well and feel like walking on a cloud.

These are very comfortable, one of the most comfortable I have ever owned. I do wish there was more color options though

The store I buy from said they have heard the same things from many people about the Bondi 9 that I said. They are narrow (and I wear wide); the sole's edge hits my foot and is uncomfortable. They look nice, but who cares what they look like if they aren't comfortable? I am so disappointed.
