HOKA Men's Bondi 9 Running Shoes

About This Item

    What Our Experts Are Saying:

    ""Bondi 9 is a beast of a high cushioned neutral shoe! Although it has an increased stack height from the prior model, the supercritical EVA foam is both soft AND resilient. Even with this height, the Metarocker shape keeps you moving forward with ease. It is a great everyday running shoe for those runners looking for a lot of cushion and/or logging a lot of miles. It also doubles as a walking shoe or a great shoe for people who are on their feet all day at work. HOKA has improved the style of this shoe and the colorways over time. This is a great example!"" - Ian, Running Ambassador at DICK'S Sporting Goods Cedar Park, Texas

    Built for serious mileage, the HOKA Bondi 9 delivers a dense, high-stack foam that eats up impact and keeps your stride consistent over long runs. The updated midsole geometry smooths out transitions, helping you stay efficient even when fatigue sets in. It’s a go-to for runners who want maximum cushioning without sacrificing performance.

Didn't Hold Up 90 Days

I bought Hoka Bondi shoes from Dicks, which were the most expensive shoes I've ever bought. I wore them just for my morning walk. The guy at Dicks said they had a 90 day warranty. We'll the shoes felt great but the sole wore out before the 90 days were even close to being up. I talked with the manager at Dicks and they said their warranty is only if the shoes were not worn outside. Really? Who buys walking shoes only for walking inside? I also wrote Hoka and submitted lots of pictures of how the shoe wore out, in my opinion, prematurely. Their site says they'll review and get back to me within a few days. Its been over a week and no word from them. I will never again buy anything from Dicks. I'll stick with great stores like Costco and REI. as for Hoka's they felt great, but I'm not going to pay so much for a shoe that wears out in less than 90 days.

First Pair, I Will Never Go Back!!

These are for my husband. I finally got him to try this brand and he absolutely loves them! He loves the comfort and softness and support. The big test will be when he wears them for a week in Chicago, doing a lot of walking. Yet, so far he has no complaints and he’s had them for almost a month.

Good Shoe Bad Tongue Design

I chose the Bondi 9 because I was looking for a well rounded, moderate to max cushion shoe that offers good shock absorption, support and breathability to log daily miles. The energy return in these is just about perfect for me, the heel drop is just slightly too low for my heel strike preference, however the moderately firm forefoot cushion aids with my forward progression. For me, the length and width are slightly too snug, I generally wear a size 11, should have gone with size 11.5. Furthermore, I probably should have opted for the 2E width option. These definitely fit snug. When I first put them on and did some light walking around, it felt like I had a tank strapped to my foot. There is a generous amount of cushion stack height. Once I began to run though, that’s when they came to life. Smooth, cushioned landings with good shock absorption. My only major complaint is the tongue. It constantly shifts to the side or shifts down. That is very distracting and bothersome when trying to pay attention to your run. The tongue is not gusseted, however I have other running shoes without a gusseted tongue and those do not present an issue. If Hoka fixes the tongue issue, this would be a 5 star.

Like Walking On Clouds…

These shoes are very comfortable. Great spring in every step and it doesn’t feel like you’re wearing shoes. I just said goodbye to Skechers.

Love Hoka

I’ve been wearing Hoka shoes for 15 years now. I currently have Bondi 9. I think my first were the Bondi B? Love this brand of shoe the best. I wear them in a 4E because I have a wide foot.

Amazingly Comfy Shoes!

I bought this pair of Hoka Bondi 9 a few weeks ago and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. It gives great support for my soles and heels since I stand and walk all day at work.
