Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 9

These are miracle shoes for my plantar fasciitis! I highly recommend them!

I was concerned based on other reviews that these shoes would run narrow so I also ordered the wide. No need- the regular fit perfectly. It took a day or two of walking for the comfort to kick in and now I never want to take them off!

I have a bunion on my right foot which is smaller than my left foot. These shoes accommodated both feet. Not only were they comfortable they felt secure with no slipping on my right heel. My gait was normal in these shoes. I completely forget about my feet and simply enjoy walking. They are as comfortable as Crocs underfoot. Will be buying more of the HOKA Bondi 9.

I love Hokas. They are so much better than any other shoes I’ve owned.

Love my Bondi 9s! Really like the new styling. So comfortable and makes my foot look smaller than the Bondi 8. Wish the navy color was available in Wide width.

I left an unfavorable review a while ago but have totally changed my mind. After ordering a second pair and changing up my orthotic to a lesser arch support the Bondi is exceptional! They are super comfy and I am no longer experiencing foot pain. I think I finally got it right! I ordered the wide width which allows room for a bunion.

My favorite Bondi, but this pair I had to reorder in an XWIDE rather than just a wide. Love these shoes

This Hoka Bondi 9 is true to size. I have a very narrow foot and after reading your reviews of Hokas--I picked this to order. It fits beautifully on my narrow size 10 feet. It is very comfortable and has a lot of cushioning.

I tried this brand because I have heard fabulous things about it. Personally I don’t get it. I can’t see spending almost 200. 00 on a regular pair of sneakers. Returned.

Wonderful feel under foot (I have an average foot w/ no medical issues), working great for 9 hours on feet every day. Feels considerably wider than prior Hokas I've had; I'm very surprised to hear people say it feels narrow.

Great, soft and comfy.

The Hoka Bondi 9 is wonderful- a bit slimmer profile than the also very comfortable series 8. I have a narrow foot so no issues with a feeling of a too tight fit. Happy to see a few brighter colors coming out. Thank you!

I LOVE this shoe!!!!!!!I have sciatica and these walkers really feel good.

Amazing! Way less pain with my plantar fasciitis. Great arch support. I was nervous about the height and that I would twist my ankle - it's not an issue at all.

I tried so many different Hoka models - the Arahi 7, the Mach 6, the Gaviota 5, the Clifton 10, and lastly, the Bondi 9 was the winner. I have very high arches, skinny feet over all but very large bunions due to being a figure skater. I also have tendonitis and some ankle and foot overuse injuries I am working through, so that's why I tried on so many models. i am very grateful for Zappos being so awesome with returns. They processed the credit back to my card within a day, which was so greatly appreciated. The Bondi shoes are super plushy and comfy but they do not feel unstable at all, despite being low on their stability ranking. They look a lot like the Clifton 10's which were also pretty good but the Clifton 10's my toe grazed the end slightly in my usual size, whereas in the Bondi they were a perfect fit with my usual size. The Bondi's also seemed to hug my foot better. I thought they were going to be too chunky for me but honestly they don't feel that way. There really is a reason why people love this model the most. I got the blue/green color Druzy/Droplet and it's super dreamy. I was really on the fence about color but this is a cool unique color that really does look like a pretty blue gemstone.

Bondi 9’s are absolutely the best! Discovered while suffering with bilateral hip osteoarthritis. The cushioning got me through some painful moments. They still serve me well post hip replacements!!

Recommended by my orthopedic foot surgeon and podiatrist. Great cushioning…puts spring in your step.

These shoes are so comfortable. Good arch support. Had my knee replaced recently and these shoes gave me the stability I was looking for when walking.

Love these shoes! They are sooo comfortable and I can walk all day without pain in the ball of my foot. They aren't the cheapest or most fashionable sneakers out there, but they're comfy as can be!

Absolutely a game changer for me! For years I have dealt with horrible neuropathy foot pain. The pain stems from Psoriatic arthritis, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica and etc etc. i’m a true 8 1/2 wide. And I’ve never been able to fit just the regular wide in the hoka Bondi. But I saw they came out with a 2X wide and thought I would give it a try so glad I did! I first tried the 8 1/2 2X wide and I thought it was OK. But it felt just a little bit tight so I bumped it up to a 9 2X wide and it’s perfect. It’s not overly wide, but it’s wide enough. For the two days I’ve had them I’ve had no pain in my feet. And I was not gimping around like I had been for the past few years and for the first time in three years I went on a walk with my fiancé and had no issues! I can’t say enough about the shoe. I will say it lacks the variety of colors that I like! I don’t know why they’re so scared to make colors in the shoe. I would give it a 10 if they made wider assortment of colors. The shoe itself is a true five stars out of five. I want to buy another pair so I can go in between each of them and not have it wear out so fast on me. It’s just a little tight on the budget now that’s something I wish they’d come down on or have a sale or a coupon. Besides the fact, I can’t rave enough about this Shoe and how much it’s helped me. Only time will tell how the future looks after I keep testing them out. But please please please come out with a bigger variety of colors.

These are my favorite Bondi yet! I started with the Bondi 7 and loved them, and then went to 8's when they came out. The 8 had a "gusseted" tongue which I could not stand. It ended up making my shoe feel tight at the top of my foot. It was horribly uncomfortable by about half way through the day. I stopped wearing them because they would give me so much pain and discomfort. I was so glad when I peeked in a shoe store recently to find that the Bondi 9 got rid of that silly gusset. These are even more cushioned feeling than my old fav's the 7. I've been wearing these for a week now and am in love. Perfect fit, the width initially felt a little snugger (I wear a 9.5 wide) but it is not uncomfortable. And the cushion is the best. I have very bad feet with plantar fascitis and extremely high arches, and I use custom orthotics as well in these shoes. These shoes make my feet feel amazing.

Very comfortable shoe. Recently injured my heel and this is the only shoe that was comfortable to wear during recovery.

I love hoka for my planter fasciitis. They help a lot.

The Bondi shoe yet! Great fit and great cushion!
