mens hoka one one mach | Who should buy
We are convinced that the Bondi 8 from Hoka is a daily running shoe that's great for those who want a very cushioned ride. It is a Godsend for recovery runs.
And if you want a shoe that can also double for walking, this version of the Hoka Bondi won't let you down.
mens hoka one one mach | Who should NOT buy
The Кросівки hoka one one bondi 7 is a pass if you want a running shoe that gives a lightweight ride. If this is the case, you can opt for the Hoka Clifton 9 instead. It weighs about 2 oz less than the Bondi 8.
If you have wider feet, you might find the shoe's midfoot too tight. We think that the mens hoka one one mach Hoka One One Mujer Clifton 8 Textile Outer Space Atlantis Entrenadores 37 1 3 EU.
Cushioning
Heel stack
zapatillas de running HOKA ONE ONE hombre ritmo medio talla 44.5!
And how does this feel on the run? Ooooh la! Meaning to say, it's 11/10 comfortable. There’s no disguising that this shoe is incredibly cushioned.
While stack height does not 1-1 correspond to more cushioning, there's usually a connection between the two. Based on our caliper measurements, the Bondi 8 has a massive stack height of 36.2 mm (3 mm thicker than the average).
That's a significant departure from the previous Bondi 7 which came in at 33 mm in the heel.

Forefoot stack

Wow! That's 4.5 mm thicker than road shoes on average! Only 10% of shoes in our lab exceeded the 30 mm mark in the forefoot.
Кросівки hoka one one bondi 7 | 30.0 mm |
Average | 25.6 mm |
Drop
However, we were disappointed to find a discrepancy between the shoe's actual heel-to-toe drop and the ones stated by the brand.
Based on our own stack measurements, the drop comes at 6.2 mm. That's 2.2 mm taller than what Hoka claims - 4 mm.
This may not be a big deal to the majority of runners but those who specifically look for low drop should be warned.

Midsole softness
HOKA Kaha 2 GORE-TEX Schuhe für Damen in Castlerock Coastal Shade!
Why? Because all along, the Bondi has been known as the ultra-cushioned, ultra-plush trainer from Hoka. That said, it didn't really target speed or responsiveness. But in the Bondi 8, we felt some really nice rebound which added a little pep in the step.
To temper your expectations, it's not insanely springy that you can do tempos, no. But it has enough bounce to make the ride enjoyable, especially during slow days.
The foam on the Bondi 8 is rather plush. With a durometer measurement of 18.0 HA, we found it to be 34% softer than the average.
And if you're wondering, the Bondi 8 IS plusher than the Clifton 9. By a good 13%!

We also checked how much firmer the Bondi 8 would get after spending 20 minutes in the freezer.
The foam got 49% harder but still ended up softer than most running shoes at room temperature. So, we are happy to say that this Hoka shoe won't be turning into an ice cube under the cold breath of winter.

Insole thickness
Measuring the shoe's insole thickness, we got 4.9 mm. This is a little more generously padded than the average, adding up to the Bondi 8's heavenly underfoot feel.
Кросівки hoka one one bondi 7 | 4.9 mm |
Average | 4.4 mm |
Rocker
We found that the shoe's rocker geometry performs very effectively. It makes the strides feel effortless in the Bondi 8.
We think that its seamless and easy-rolling ride is the shoe's biggest selling point after cushioning.

Hoka is only bouncing up too.
To investigate further, we created a gel mold of the toebox and, using a pair of calipers, confirmed that the toebox is unexpectedly narrow on paper. At its widest point, the gel mold measured 92.2 mm—significantly narrower than average.

Who should buy the Hoka One One Stinson ATR 6
We think this will be a problem even for medium-sized feet like ours, especially because the Bondi 8 tapers significantly. Our second measurement in the toebox area showed only 69.2 mm, making it one of the few shoes in the lab to go under 70.0 mm in this test.
For that reason, we recommend going half a size up in this Hoka shoe or opting for the wide and extra-wide options available for it.

Toebox height
After our third measurement of 28.5 mm, the Bondi 8 offered better news for runners with high-volume feet—providing a comfortable amount of vertical space.

Stability
Lateral stability test
What's great about the Bondi 8 is that it's soft, but it's not too soft. Despite its high-stack design, the shoe never made us feel tippy.
Torsional rigidity
hoka one one speedgoat 3 f grarod.
In our manual flexibility test, we rated this Hoka shoe's torsional stiffness as 4 out of 5. That's pretty high up on a 1-5 scale where 5 is the stiffest!
That lowers the risk of rolling the ankle considerably.

Heel counter stiffness
Contributing to a sense of stability is the Bondi 8's moderately stiff heel counter. In a manual assessment, we gave it 3 out of 5 (where 5 is the stiffest).
The shoe's generous collar padding also adds a great deal of ankle security to this Hoka shoe.

If you thought that the Hoka Clifton was a monster, you've got to check out the Bondi!
Based on both the look of it and the measurements, the Bondi 8 makes one of the largest platforms in our lab! And probably in the history of running shoes too.
In the widest part of the forefoot, our caliper shows a whopping 126.5 mm. THat's over 13 mm wider than the average road shoe! Insane!

Midsole width - heel
The shoe continues to impress us in its heel section too! Our caliper shows 100.9 mm in the widest part which, yet again, exceeds the average. This time by 11 mm.
Having such a wide landing area, no wonder we felt so stable in the Кросівки hoka one one bondi 7!

Weight
The Кросівки hoka one one bondi 7 gets a weight penalty because, at 11 oz (311g), it is way heavier than most daily running shoes by almost an ounce.

Breathability
With all the in-shoe padding on the Bondi 8, breathability is still not compromised. It may not be the best choice for warm weather but it definitely has enough airflow for moderate climates.On a 1-5 scale, we rated its breathability as 3.
The most breathable areas can be seen in our transparency test below.

Durability
Outsole hardness
The fact that the Bondi 8 has softer rubber and lots of exposed foam made us a little concerned.
Using our durometer, we measured the shoe's outsole hardness at 74.0 HC. That's 8% softer than the average of road shoes.
But on the actual run test, we were quite relieved to find that the rubber held up pretty well! In fact, its soft nature really helped to soften the landings.

Average | 79.7 HC |
Outsole thickness
Despite not having a full-length outsole, we found the Кросівки hoka one one bondi 7 to be fairly durable. It is not as wear-resistant as most road shoes due to its exposed foam but we believe that it will hold up for at least 300 miles.
The good news is that the rubber pieces at the bottom of the shoe are 3 mm thick. This is the same amount of rubber as road running shoes have on average.

The shoe's tongue is partially attached to the sides a.k.a semi-gusseted. We experienced zero shifting and the tongue did its job of locking the foot down in place.
