Buy on Supwell appI’ve had these shoes in the box for a few months now. I loved the soft, max cushion glide!! but they always fit tight enough to cause blisters on the outer side of right foot’s my big toe + have the other toes too close to each other and causing all sorts of other fit issues. This made me realize my right foot is bigger than my left lmao I tried to make them wider by not lacing the lowest eyelets, but this didn’t make much of a difference. If both of your feet are a true men’s size 9 and not wide, this shoe will likely work for you! If you’re a men’s size 8.5, you’ll also likely fit in these.
Check out the RunRepeat toe box measurements and see how they’d compare to your preferred fit: https://runrepeat.com/hoka-bondi-8
I didn’t realize how much I’ve worn into them (see pics) but the shoe still feels very much alive and based on its current mileage + RunRepeat, I’d say they’d easily go up to at least 300 miles. It would make a great walking shoe or you could ride the rest of the max cushion life out of them. The shoe retailed for ~$165 but based on the wear, I’m thinking $40 shipped max is fair.
