Customer Reviews Hoka Bondi 7

Fit as listed and so comfortable. Perfect gray color.

Hoka's are the best. They were originally recommended to me by a podiatrist. I've owned two pairs of Clifton 2's (gray/green, black red...great shoes, still using one pair for walking the dog...), one pair of Clifton 5's (white/black...wasn't to thrilled with these, but that's because I ordered them a half size too small, and didn't discover it until I ordered the Bondi 6's, like two years later, duh!...), one pair of Hoka M Tor Ultra Hi WP hiking boots (light tan...love these...), one pair of Speedgoat 4 GTX (Mandarin Red/Gold Fusion, to walk the dog this winter...talk about colorful! I need flaming colorful feet in the winter!), one pair of Bondi 6's (gray/blue...for long distance walking, running outside), and now two pairs of Bondi 7's (gray/white and black/red/green, what's not colorful there?) to use inside, primarily in the gym. All of my Hoka's have proved durable, and as far as fit, arch-support etc. (confirmed by my podiatrist), they are second to none. The lack of pain in my incredibly hard-used feet is proof enough for me. I love the color offerings for the Bondi 7's, which is one reason I bought two pair. When I'm in the gym, my Under Armour shirts are a variety of crazy colors including orange camouflage, electric-blue camouflage, red camouflage...well you get the picture, I like camouflage. Therefore, I usually go for solid neutral gray, green, black, blue pants, or shorts. I appreciate the more neutral colors offered by Hoka One One. God, I wouldn't want to clash! When I'm running, I don't need that flash of color as my feet move; I want to concentrate on my breathing, and efficentcy of movement. I wouldn't admit or even mention any of this, except that a couple of reviews mentioned disappointment with Hoka's color palette for the Bondi 7's. I'm with you Hoka!

I've had a number of pairs of Hoka's. I ordered these because I wanted a size to fit my feet with thicker socks on. I ordered one full size larger. The fit is perfect. Great walking shoes (I only walk, never run). Zappos was so quick in shipping it seemed like they arrived before I even placed the order!

I'm so impressed with these shoes. I've been searching for shoes that would support my larger body for a long time. After trying zero drop shoes to cushioned shoes from various brands, landing on Hoka is the winner. The arches are too aggressive for my feet but adding carbon superfeet insoles takes care of the friction and keeps my feet happy. The rocking support the shoes offer really gives my body the extra push off and it makes a huge difference between feeling fatigued in "cushioned" shoes vs feeling great and the option to keep going. These are amazing!
