I walk 8-10 miles 5-6 days a week
This shoe lasted me 9 months, I averaged about 8 miles a day throughout those 9 months, that being that I work for USPS. I was a waitress before becoming a mail lady. My legs and feet often hurt after 10 hour shifts, all because I didn't have the right pair of shoes. I started taking foot wear and c...

My Unexpected Journey with Hoka Shoes
I have to share a bit about my experience with Hoka shoes. At first, these shoes were a dream come true. They were so comfy that I not only got a pair for myself but also went out of my way to buy them as gifts for my family and friends, raving about how great they were. In fact, over the last three...

Night shift nurse- would buy again!
I have no knees pain working 12 hour shifts. As a healthcare worker it these are a great option because the shoe can we wiped clean with a purple wipe, or bleach wipe if any spills occur on shift. I have also thrown them in the wash for unforgivable spills and they came out looking brand new. My only complaint is that the bottoms are squeaky on my units floor- but worth it for the comfort!
Came back to buy these again
I got a pair of the Homa Bondi SR in 2023 and initially upon trying them on they did not feel like they would be comfortable but I gave them a shot anyway and when I walked around in them they did not feel as stiff and tight as when I tried them on at first. They actually felt like clouds on my feet. They were so comfortable and supportive. I work as an RN and hundreds of shifts later I'm back to buy another pair. I recommend these to all my co-workers when footwear conversations come up and believe me it always comes up lol.
Not for me
The product is well made, but for me -no. I need cush in the ball of my foot and this style did not offer that.

Best ankle support
Lately I have been having weaknesses and loosing my balance even at the hospital as a nurse. This shoes gives me the perfect platform where it supports my whole feet like I'm walking with extra wings around my ankle for support. Now I know why they recommend this shoes for Pres. Biden it's basically for older people like me who occasionally loose our balance even though I'm not that old yet 😜
Not a fan
Sadly, not a fan of this model Bndi

Mom Loves These
I bought these for my mom who works on her feet all day. She was starting to have terrible pains with plantar fasciitis so I knew I needed to find quality shoes for her. She has worn them for a week now and says they are doing a great job, her feet feel so much better during her shifts and after.
Can't go back to regular shoes
Purchased these for work. Don't know why i did get them sooner. Stand on my feet on concrete floors for 10hrs shifts. Five plus days a week. Wish they came in steel toe
These hurt my feet even after removing for hours
First time trying the famous Hoka brand and my expectations were really high. I spend all day on my feet managing a restaurant and I'm a part time hair stylist. I really needed a shoe that didn't require a break in period. I tried these with different socks and still no relief. Also the soles grab anything your feet come in contact with, which is disgusting. Very hard to clean trapped food etc out of these tiny crevices.
