The softer the foam the quicker it gets flat. A shop clerk advised me to get gaviota instead of Bondi. According to him, they are not as soft as Bondi but they will last longer or something. Thank you for the review. But Bondi is second to none for those with heel spurs.
That slow clip was epic.
I wasn't even looking at the shoes.
Great looking legs!
Thank you! 🙏
I loved the detailed review, I’m really getting into running now but unfortunately at the moment have shin splint and want to invest in a good pair of runners.
Yess same here
How are you doing now?
The 7's were the best shoes ever. I was HIGHLY disappointed with the 8's. They look like bulbous clown shoes (seriously, not kidding), and the sole is hard as a rock! They went straight back. I have switched to Asics Nimbus 25 gel, for my new max cushioning shoes. I really wish Hoka hadn't messed up a great shoe, but thankfully Asics came out with one better than Hoka 7. They run a bit short, so sized up, but felt like I had springs under my feet. Speed enhanced just because of comfort.
You deserve more subs cool content man
Thanks Dylan, we will get there…💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 thanks for the support!
I hope you come back to the channel for some more love. Constructive criticism is always welcome and invited.
Uhh? He probably made this video "unbiased" review in exchange for free shoes from HOKA. The guy sounds like he's reading a script of marketing bullet points straight off the Hoka website. Lame.
Kevin, let’s set the record straight.
I have paid for ever pair of shoes that I review. Hoka has never given me 1 single thing.
Regarding reading a script….nope.
Every thing I said was from memory and ad lib. 🙏
Thank you for insight and positivity.
@@JoelLong Apologies for assuming the worst.
Apologize accepted. Thank you for your understanding.
Love ‘em. Can’t wear anything after Hokas
That’s awesome Haris!
True
Would you recommend them for Hill Repeats and good for very hilly courses like Minnekahda(Chattanooga Chase) route? Of course only for workouts trainers not racing use at all. I have ran in Bondi shoes for many years and the shoes seem to work well for me at least the previous iterations of Bondi. I appreciate any feedback you can give me.🙂🏃🏻♂️👟
Hey David! I suppose you could use them for workouts if you desired to. I do believe this version is better than the 7, and does provide more energy return. However, because of the weight of the shoe I believe that a small more responsive shoe would be better for the tempo workouts and hilly courses such as the Chatt Chase.
“It’s like a trampoline” 😂
Great review! I had an acl tear a couple years back playing basketball, and at age 40 now, am starting to slow down (just mainly want casual comfort shoes for walking/standing). A friend recommended the Bondi 8’s and when I went to try them on they felt great, but they looked pretty clunky to me, specifically the width (they looked almost like clown shoes). That being said, do you think the Bondi 7s would solve that clown shoe concern for me?? Thanks for your time and hope to hear back.
Thanks for the comment James. One of the most common things I hear about “Hoka” in general is that they appear to look like clown shoes. Personally, I don’t think they do…I think people just have a weird perception about it for whatever reason..nevertheless I think the Bondis in general are bigger shoes and as a result they might appear to be “clown shoes” but I don’t think they are. The comfortability out weighs the awkwardness
Best clown shoes you'll ever wear.
@@Sblackman07 I went with the mach 6’s so I wouldnt know…
Have you tried the Skechers Maxroad 5 or GoRun Ride 10?
I have not tried the Skechers Mac road or the GoRun Ride 10
I just tried them today and my feet were not fans. The Bondi 8 felt to tight, like they curved up and pushed against my feet. Back to Brooks for me.
Which brooks shoe do you prefer?
@@larrytate1657 Ghost 14
Do you have flat feet?
@@haon2205 Yup 😄
You said it's 33 heel 29 forefoot. But some websites stated it's 39, 35... which is right?
It’s definitely not 39/35, it has the same drop as the Bondi 7 which is 33/29 for men’s.
Hello Thanks a lot can a heavy weight person wear this shoes ? 100 kilo 174 cm Tall . Using for daily walks 2 hours daily ! Thanks
I am heavier than you and have been jogging plus walking in my Bondi 8’s five months now with no problems (ten miles of training last week)
Wow. 2 hr walks? That's a lot of the body and joints. Especially being heavy.
How does the Bondi 8 compare to the Clifton 9?
The Bondi 8 is significantly heavier and more bulky than the Clifton 9. Not a bad shoe, but if I had to pick one it would be the Clifton 9.

Bondi 7 vs bondi 8? Please be honest :)
Th Bondi 8 is better in my opinion
Bondi 7 for me. The 8's are hard soles, and humorously wide.
They need a designer to make them look a lot better including the colours, they look very ugly.
I totally agree!
Might want you
What?
@@JoelLong lol. She might want you. She’s thinking it over.
Bondi is the most famous beach in Australia. If you can't figure out how to pronounce it then try watching the TV series Bondi Rescue...
That’s very interesting, thank you for the recommendation.
He can say it how ever the fuck he wanna say it. Beesssshhhhhhh
You love to watch men run 😂

I hate thick tongue
I do as well. I prefer the thinner
