I’ve been a nurse for 13 years and these are the best shoes hands down. I’ve worked countless doubles, on my feet for 15+ hours, I weigh around 220# and I have a high arch, causing me to underpronate. So, the thick, wide base of the shoe helps with stability. It’s also lightweight. Wish I found these shoes years ago. No foot pain and no back pain.
I'm a 27 year old disabled veteran, ive got arthritis in my back and knees, I also have a severe ankle condition which makes daily life hard, the Hoka Bondi 6 Changed my life. Thanks Hoka for making an amazing product.
The Bondi 6 are supremely comfortable and light that I bought 3 pairs and have a couple of other Hokas'. Use them daily at work on rotation - am in health care, so I walk a whole lot. These shoes are a heaven sent. Also wear them for exercise on weekends. Top channel Tom and Meaghan, great review!
Same, as I walk anywhere from 4 - 16 miles daily for work. On most days, I put in about 8K steps but occasionally I'll put upwards of close to 30K steps and on rare occasions, damn near 40K steps. These shoes are amazingly comfortable and worth every penny as some of my other shoes, even the more expensive ones, I would get home and my feet just ache. Haven't had any problems with these. @clean lopez I haven't had any problems with the sides ripping as there's a lot of room in the toe box, at least my shoes. I have read that these were cons by other reviewers. That said, I haven't ran in over a decade, used to run every other day 3 - 4 days a week. I'm more walking now, mostly at work but I walk on weekends as well. So far, they've held up but I can definitely see them ripping because of how light the fabric is.
Yea that is what I have these shoes for, walking. Once a week, I have to do full inspection on multiple buildings. These are great for just those days, but they aren't great for just standing, too much a front biased.
Im not a runner, but a walker with a post torn ACL from years back and getting into walking, distances, heading to a half marathon and then walking marathon, and these shoes for me are the best hands down! I need that comfort for my ACL injury. so if you like me and have any bone or ligament issues. this show is such a help,
I bought a pair of bondi 7 2 months ago. I only use them for walking and it is the first time I own shoes that feel so comfortable and stable. I am 76 years old and it feels I could walk for ever! so thx Hoka for this amazing product.
Great video. I personally have bought this shoe and returned it! When walking in this shoe or a very slow jog the shoe is great and extremely comfortable! But that being said when, in this shoe at a faster pace or for longer miles it feels bulky and heavy. It loses the comfort you get when walking! Great if on your feet all day or u want long walks. Get the Clifton 7 if you want a light fast extremely comfortable shoe that you can use all day walking jogging or running and for long distance! This has been my experience and I’m not sponsored! Hope this helps everyone out there!
I didn’t believe the hype but now I’m a believer. Wearing 15 wide. 6’3 and around 255lbs. Shoe has every bit of the support it promised, lightweight, wide toe box. Overall great shoe.
I’m not old but getting older, and the Bondi 6 allowed me to up the mileage without any injuries at all. Definitely not a speed shoe but let’s you push yourself to get out there more often. Not seeing much difference between the 6 and the 7. Upper of 6 is already really comfortable for me. The 6 is currently on sale at Hoka as well. Thanks for the fun review!
I decided I wanted a total comfort, recovery, easy day shoe and the Bondi is the ticket. I got the 6 on clearance though since I am a budget runner. Thanks Hoka for some limoooosines for the feet.
I have a pair of the Bondi 7 and really can't endorse them. First, your analogy of the trampoline is well-taken. Walking on a trampoline is awkward, sort of bouncy, always slightly off balance. That's how I feel in these shoes. I've tried them on the road and, for rainy days, on the treadmill. I'm just a little less steady in the Bondi. They're also heavy. I love my Rincons, light as a feather and easily sufficient cushion, even for a 74-year-old with a knee replacement. The Bondi is about 3.5 oz. heavier than the Rincon. I've been so unhappy with the Bondi that they've become my dog-walking shoes... and they're not even particularly good at that.
To me it’s unreal how many videos say this shoe is so awesome with max comfort! It only feels great when walking not long runs. The shoe is heavy! Try the running warehouse. You can try a shoe for 90 days if it doesn’t work for you exchange for another shoe!
I just got mine a few months ago and have had a little bit of trouble with the wideness of the sole. It's hard to explain but I've almost had it catch on things and make me tumble. A little awkward at times. Plus I don't think it's very attractive looking. I feel like I have duck feet when wearing. But it's just taking getting used to. They do seem to get more comfortable the more I wear them.
@@MrJermson Hard to say, unless you compare it with some other shoes. I think it absorbs a bit more then responsive (firmer) shoes do. However, as I am using them for my long (slow/relaxed) runs, they are very forgiving for the legs. Far lesser fatigue then with a more energetic/responsive shoe. So no, not the most energy returning shoe, but certainly not absorbing the energy either. ps- the Bondi 7 is releasing...
Totally agree. The bondi 6 is a workhorse and I'm happy that I just got my second pair after the first pair lasted almost 500 miles (and it was the upper that split, the sole was going strong). I use it for my weekly 90-120 minute run and leave the rest of the week to other shoes. The 6 is the best Bondi yet, and I've been on the train since the B (and actually still have one pair of original B's that I still run in). The 6 is the first one that tops the original. The 4 was a disaster and I got one of the wrongly manufactured 5's that were rock hard.
Coach DribbleDrive That is really great information to have, thank you so much!! Lots of 6s on sale now the 7 is coming out so you just gave me what I needed to make up my mind !!! Many thanks!! 🙏 🙏 🏃🏻♀️
I've had two pairs of the Bondi 6's and both times I had holes at the top/middle part of the toe box, after just a month of owning the shoe, without any serious miles put on them. They need better construction in that area.
LOVED the Bondi 6.... Wanted to buy a backup, but NONE to be found in my women's size 6. You say the Bondi 7 is true to size; would you say it fits JUST LIKE the 6 -- which some said was a slightly larger fit (I was surprised that the size 6 fit so well, as I am usually a 6.5) Should I get the same size 6 in the Bondi 7? Or would you say it runs slightly SMALLER than the Bondi 6? Thanks! Great REVIEW .... I think I"ll be a Bondi Girl for LIFE, unless the mess up the way ASICS did with the Nimbus... js ...
I liked the Clifton 6 a lot, went through two pairs. Rincon bottomed out on me and started hurting at 100 miles. Tried the Bondi in a local store on the treadmill and it just felt dead.
I go running every morning with a 20 pound vest and my achilies get so strained running around my neighbor hood (hills and everything) I really am looking forward to trying these on hope it helps
Believe in cushioning with stability! I want healthy back, knees and ankles and keep running and doing rope. Cushion forever. You don't lose at strength, especially if you're doing 20-30' resistance training!
The Bondi's in my personal opinion are sloppy for runs. Too mushy for me that my feet get lost in the foam on each stride. I also experience foot pain every time I run in them. Had to return. However, they are very comfortable if you're planning on using them for walking. That's the only thing I'd use these shoes for.
Really not a fan of the Bondi B re-issue. It just doesn't have the cushion that the Bondi 6 seems to. If this is just an updated upper probably just grab another Bondi 6? I always ended up picking up the pace in the 6.
I'm 5 months into healing from major ankle Injury (3 fractured bones around ankle bone, 1 torn ligament and 2 ligament strain.) Looking for a Hoka shoe for support, flexibility and to augment my recovery regime (strengthening exercises, physical therapy and acupuncture). Any suggestions?
Love these shoes. Just did an unboxing and 1 yr review as I’ve just purchased my second pair and sharing in case you or anyone else watching is interested
Is the memory foam only in the ankle collar or is it elsewhere in the shoe? Is memory foam in 6 & 7? Other than upper, is there anything different between 6 & 7 in the midsole & outsole?
Great review/video! My legs are def feeling tired these days (felt extra old 'n slow this morning seeing both Meaghan and Lizzie gliding along the harbor while I plodded through 5 miles). I'm ordering some tonight. Bondi Bs are on clearance, do you get some of the same benefit as the 7s?
Great video! Just unboxed new pair and reviewed the bindi 7’s I’ve been wearing for a year. Sharing in case you or anyone else watching is interested ❤️
I was looking all over for where to get these. Finally saw the 8/1 release date in the description. I also cant find the new "Bondi SR" anywhere other than direct from Hoka.
hi thanks for the great review , I was using Bondi 6 for my back problem because of the great cushioning. I would like to know if you recommend Bondi 7 or Clifton 7 for the max cushioning ? thanks
What is the lifespan like of EVA based shoes like the Bondi compared to newer foam technologies like react or powerrun plus? I assume the newer tech will last longer so be better value per mile? Or is that mistaken?
So for flat feet with metatharsal pain would you say this is the go to? Thinking about arahi and this, my feet hurt a lot in everything since I walk on my bone and pressing the nerve. 😶
Does this fit like the clifton or the rincon or something different again? I have low arches and the Clifton wrecked my feet but the rincon fits like a dream.
Please clarify for me, when you say true to size, if I'm a UK 5 should I buy a UK 5. Because I'm always sizing up with active shoes. And I'm new to running so I've only been running in Nike and always size up. But I'm keen on the Hoka Clifton and have to purchase online so not sure what size to buy. Help ☹️
I bought 2 pairs of bondi 6, 1st pair got a hole in the mesh after only 2 weeks of wearing them,sent them back!! 2nd pair after 3 months the upper detached from the outsole!! Bondi is comfy but with very low quality materials!!
How come all the reviewers have this nice dark blue and yellow bondi 7 but on the website it’s a light blue? I really like the shoe in his hands but idk how to purchase it with that color scheme.
Other than actually measuring stack height in heel & toe, where are Hoka stack height #s for their shoes published? Where do you get your stack height #s?
I hope this question is answered. I have almost flat, wide feet and plantar f. or something that affects me as well. Im preying to good I can buy these for my warehouse job and they're actually comfortable. Especially for me heel support. I currently wear Airforce ones because theyre the most comfortable shoe I own for standing/walking on concrete for 8hours a day, 40hours a week. Literally my life depends on it because if I cant stand I can make any money.
Hi there. So is this shoe good for the painful knee? I am searching for something which will allow me to run from time to time with my 4 diagnoses on my left knee :)
As long as the road is flat these run shoes comfortable. However if the roads are not flat at all I cannot recommend these shoes, sloping roads and the Bondi 7 are horrible
Got the bondi 6's on sale the other day. Feels good to me. Can't wait to break them in more. I'm actually surprised people say there's no ground feel. I feel like there's a lot of other shoes that are similar: ultraboost, max road 4, novablast, peg turbo.
Question if you are 5 11 around 250 with back pain especially lower and ball of the foot pain currently whereing new balence 990 v4 would you go with bondi 7 Clifton 7 gaviota 7 I where well in doc martins outside heal. I'm not much running mostly standing and walking
Believe in the Run Many thanks for your reply🙏 I hadn’t imagined how different runners could wear shoes out slower or faster. I’ve heard that the Rincon dies very quickly indeed, less than 200miles!! Me, like so many of us, I want good value for money as well as extreme comfort for our long run shoes!
Mine are about to be retired. Currently 780k on them. Upper starts to show some wear and tear whereby upper is about to detach some from sole, left shoe, right behind/below beginning of big toe, inner side.
Hmm, interesting, meg didn't like the turbo II cause too soft but you did. This seems opposite. I like the feel of the turbo IIs. I'll have to try out the rincon, clifton, bondi when stores open. Still looking for my first hoka.

God bless you!
Bro, we literally got the same story, except I'm a year younger (26) and I'm using the Hoka Bondi 7. I needed a change and so far I'm not complaining!

This was one of the funniest reviews.. easy to watch.
So how does it compare to Clifton 7 or how does the bondi 7 compare to the 6 besides outside
It's because she's lighter. The foam doesn't take away as much energy compared to someone heavier.
True i weight 53kg and i notice this shoe is not made for me

Wow 1 hour ago only you posted this, and I am actually wondering the same. (Friday 8th January, 2020).
Would you get Mach 4 or bondi 7
I'm not a runner, in fact i can barely walk on my left foot from arthritis and hallux rigidus in my toe. Are these a good option for my condition?
You should definitely give them a try
How about for daily use with a torn MCL?
As long as the road is flat these run shoes comfortable. However if the roads are not flat at all I cannot recommend these shoes, sloping roads and the Bondi 7 are horrible
When are the coming out Hoka said after the New Year 2020
Got the bondi 6's on sale the other day. Feels good to me. Can't wait to break them in more. I'm actually surprised people say there's no ground feel. I feel like there's a lot of other shoes that are similar: ultraboost, max road 4, novablast, peg turbo.

It really depends on the runner, but at least 300-500

Very comfortable but I felt like I had to over compensate on my runs to get speed
I’m always tired af when I run since I also lift but I’m also slow af so I may add the Clifton to my rotation. Nice review.
Bondi’s rock! 👍
Polar Grit Fan Club seems to be growing...
I walk 5 miles 5 days a week is the bondi 7 right for me I’m 69 years young
For sure!
I'm on the fence between the Bondi 6 and Bondi 7, is the comfort on foot the same?
Just about
12.35? Jesus they are listed at 10.5 ounces, aren't they?
Is this really coming out 8/1?
Are they good if you suffer from plantar fasciitis
While not a doctor, I personally like firmer shoes when plantar strikes.
Did you have to get the wide size or did you get regular size?
Regular
Thank you!! Hopefully the Bondi got a little wider. I just bought a pair of Bondi 6s that I had to get in size 11.5 wide.
Nice

Women’s
Hmm, interesting, meg didn't like the turbo II cause too soft but you did. This seems opposite. I like the feel of the turbo IIs. I'll have to try out the rincon, clifton, bondi when stores open. Still looking for my first hoka.
I mean we walk and stand on concret which is completely unnatural so this cushioning neededed no matter what

What are the changes from Bondi 6?
