GURU TIP: The new Bondi 8 runs a touch slimmer than the Bondi 7. You may want to consider widths. TECH TIP: Hoka Bondi 8 is lighter and softer with Hoka’s modified foam cushioning system. It’s new, sleek upper design and comfort-focused midsole also make the 8 ideal for avid walkers or those who enjoy a comfy all-day sneaker. Runners and walkers will gravitate towards the comfortable upper with dependable lockdown as well as the obvious cushion. The upper is a bit more narrow than past Bondi’s, so it does fit a little more snug. The biggest surprise of all is this version is actually pretty attractive. BUY THIS SHOE IF: You are looking for an easy going, max cushion shoe for your long shifts, long miles and tired legs. DON’T BUY THIS SHOE: If you are wanting to hit your fastest race pace, want something with bounce back. Learn more on our GURU blog here. HOKA MEN’S BONDI 8 XWIDE
