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.

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.

Helps Eliminate Plantar Fasciitis Pain
I’ve spent the better part of a year battling plantar fasciitis pain in my left foot, keeping me from getting the miles in that I’m used to. The Hoka Bondi 9s, along with stretches, exercises, massage and ice have helped me get back to the point where I can start training for an upcoming half marathon.
