Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 9

I bought a gray pair. Very comfortable and cushioning! True to size!

This shoe is very light and supportive. This is a very well made shoe and fits your foot like a glove. Now I have to say the Bondi 8 vs 9 is a big difference. Even though you wouldn't think so. But the bondi 9 is amazing and supportive and the bondi 8 doesn't support the foot completely and isn't a comfortable fit.

I adore these shoes! I tried the n the Bondi 8 and it was not comfortable. The high back bothered me. These are perfect. Tall enough for my very high arch/instep even with my orthotics, and wide enough for my toes. I love how they look too! I one color in a store then ordered these online because they didn't have them in stock. Please don't change them!

I'm a Bondi believer. My previous pair was the Bondi 7. I figured, Bondi 9! Must be better. The Bondi 9 however, is a wider shoe than the 7, especially the toe box. My foot did not feel as secure. My first work out in the 9 was a 55 minute power walk. About 40 minutes in, my feet were aching. Fortunately, I still have my 7's, so I'm returning the 9's. Not sure what to do when the 7's wear out. p.s. my pair of Bondi 9's SQUEAK.

Just started in the gym and this shoe is so comfortable! It's like walking on a cloud.

Too much for my feet

I have orthodics in my shoes and these fit perfect! plus I had toe surgery and I am feeling no pain when walking. Headed on a cruise and am bringing these shoes with me!

Love this shoe! Light weight and it has amazing cushion. It makes my feet happy!

All day comfort

I hate the back of the shoe - it doesn't have the tab pull that the Bondi 7 and 8 have. This makes it totally inconvenient. I am currently looking for the Bondi 8 in blk/white which they're gone now! Wow bummer.

I had back pain and since I'm wearing Hoka (I've been wearing Hoka for 4 years) , my back is 75% better. Thank you for easing my pain.

Reviews from others made me Leary but it's a nice upgrade from the former Bondi versions. I'm not seeing any negative chsnges. What's with the lack of colors offered though? Such a boring palette.

I have arthritis and have had surgery on my feet. I have had a time finding a shoe that could hold up to the test of shopping and my feet not hurt. So far so good. I bought a wide so there would be more toe span in my shoe. I tried my shoes on at the store and it felt like I was walking on clouds. I love my shoes and hope they won't let me down when I start doing my long walks in them.

Several people have recommended these shoes to me, but I always hesitated due to the cost. I finally caved, and they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn; my plantar fasciitis has not flared up since I started wearing them. I've always purchased regular-fit shoes, but after reading a few comments I decided to go with the wide-fit, and they fit my feet perfectly. I will definitely be buying more in the future!

These shoes make my feet so comfy, and when I wear them down, I buy another pair! I go for a vigorous one-hour+ walk six days out of seven, and these give me the cushioning and stability I need.

Everything is GREAT about the comfortable shoes

I have been wearing Bondi's for a long time and with each upgrade I get more disappointed. For people with shoulder and arm mobility issues the lack of any tongue attachment is unacceptable. With my first pair of Bondis the tongue was attached on both sides... the next 3 pair the tongue was attached on one side... and now with the Bodi 9 there is no tongue attachment. When putting the shoe on, the tongue rolls up in the front of the shoe and it is painful to pull it back where it belongs. I will never order another pair of HOKAs.
