I bought these in March for work (I’m an RN). They give me amazing support! My favorite work sneaker to date! However, 7 months later they are completely falling apart. I only work 3 days a week and occasionally wear them to the gym.

I bought these from moosejaw as a first time customer, I had searched endlessly for this color and model and they were the only site that came through! I also have to say their customer experience and unique humor make me sure to be back again soon! The shoes themselves are great I found myself running quicker paces without even realizing it effort wise. The only con would be they run a bit big if size down .5 size possibly a whole size!

This shoe is fabulous. I wear Bondi's and thought I would try the BX. It has more cushion, lightweight and durable than Bondi regular shoes. I bought 2 pairs. This is the shoe for long distance runners.

I have been wearing Hoka Bondis since the Bondi 6 and have loved them—they’ve taken me through three spring marathons and the training to get there—so I was interested to try the Bondi X. While I didn’t test them out on a run, I found the fit just wearing them in the house wasn’t right for me. That probably had a lot to do with the fact that I have quite a pronounced bunion on one foot and find I need extra width in the toe box to accommodate. In fact, the last pair of Bondi 7s I bought were D width. I found the Bondi X toe box seemed a bit narrower, and they don’t come in a D. Other than that, I noticed there was no cushioning on the top of the tongue of the X (unlike the regular Bondi), and I didn’t really like that. I ended up returning the X but still love the ... MoreI have been wearing Hoka Bondis since the Bondi 6 and have loved them—they’ve taken me through three spring marathons and the training to get there—so I was interested to try the Bondi X.

This is a very comfortable shoe but it is so huge it looks ridiculous! I like the big padded running shoe style but this is way bigger that what I would love. It looks totally disproportional to my petite frame. I’m 5’’3, size 6 and I worked like I had a 10 on.
Distance runners be careful. Shoe length runs large. I normally wear an 8.5 or a 9. Size 9 was purchased but larger width (purchased normal width) in the toe box results in too much movement in the toe box (not much support in the upper in that area) . Hence 1 run and 1 painful blister. You ca try to size down 1/2 size or skip this shoe and find a better fit. I'm stuck with it as I have worn it out. Suggest find a better fit.
I was really excited to get these, but lost some excitement after walking around in them. The tongue is ultra thin compared to other Bondi shoes and is cut different. It doesn't cushion the top of my foot and also lets my foot slide around a little bit so I have to tie tighter, which ended up hurting because of the thin tongue. Also, the back end of the sole sticks out and tends to catch on things at work, annoying. Hoping I can make them last until I can get a new pair. They also only come in white right now which is a bummer because they'll probably get dirty fast as a nurse The best thing about them is the cushion.
I have trust in Hoka. This was my 4th shoe from them and they do no disappoint. They are as comfortable as all of the other shoes I've bought.I have really bad knees and running with these help with the pain. I can run for more longer without my knees getting sore.My feet is pretty narrow and they are a bit more roomy than other running shoes but I feel like for people with more average size feet, they will be perfect.I love that the tongue isn't bulky and super thin. They do not get in the way when I run. The shoes are also breathable and my feet don't nearly get as hot or sweaty compared to the Arahis.100% recommend.
A very comfortable and smart shoe, I had chosen it because it comes fitted with a carbon plate that according to my podiatrist would be handy in relieving the pain caused by bursitis on my right foot. Regrettably, I had to return the shoe as the width was ' B' specification whereas I required C+.For any one with a B + width requirement , this shoe is highly recommended,
l purchased glass blue Hoka Bondi X running shoes in the size of 7,5, and l must say they are amazing! The size fits precisely as promised, the color of the shoes is exactly like it was in the pictures, and in real life the shoes are even cuter than they were in the photos. I took my first run right after receiving them because once l tried them on, l never wanted to take them off. They are amazingly comfy and light, yet supportive. I felt like l was flying instead of running. I am extra happy over the fast shipping and easily manageable Backcountry.com website. Great selection of products, easily manageable website, fast shipping, and high-quality goods ( l am in love with my new shoes)
