lottowinnerau 1.0Not a runner but do a lot of walking around my suburb on concrete paths. Used to be ASICS but started getting a lot of hip and knee pain (I'm over 50). An older acquaintance recommended Hokas as he'd been put on to them by an OT post hip surgery. Love my Hokas. Have had Bondi mostly - 7, 8 & now 9. Also have a couple of pairs of Cliftons. When I wear other brands for casual, knees and hips protest loudly!
mo-mx 0.2Same with my Hoka Bondi OG :)
B4rrel_Ryder 0.1I have a Hoka Bondi 4E. They fit my wide feet well and are fairly solid. They don't look good though being so big. Also, the only colors at the time were all gray or all black.
Begatten 0.1From this, personally, I find NB super comfortable, but the foam does 'die' a bit earlier. I think if you're after a versatile trainer, Clifton is meant to be great daily (I have the Bondi for easy/recovery). They're meant to be a bit more durable too, I like the Vomero (just from trying on, not running), but they're soo soft I'd worry they would break down faster than the clifton
Charming_Sherbet_638 0.1Hoka bondi - very soft, too soft for me, Hoka clifton - soft, harder than bondi - mu daily choice.
Comet_Alba2018 0.1Shoes are so personal so what helps one person’s back or feet may not for another. Do you live somewhere you can go try them on? I run in Hoka Mach 6 (I know nothing about them, I just went to a running store and tried shoes on til I found what felt good) and I wear Bondi ones at work (healthcare on my feet all day)
Dapper-Exit3126 0.1Hoka bondi wide & go to a shoe store & be properly sized
Dazzling_Storm_988 0.1If you can find the HOKA sales on shoppee you might be able to find on in your price range. Can’t go wrong with the Clifton or bondi series.
dontletmeautism 0.1I have hallux limitus so need stiff rockered shoes. I’ve therefore spent a lot of money arrive at this. Base mileage at slow pace: Hoka Bondi / Puma Magmax v1 Quicker workouts: Nike Zoom Fly 6 / Saucony Endorphin Pro 4 Long Runs: ASICS Superblast 2 Race Day: Saucony Endorphin Pro 4
DryAvocado6055 0.1They are my favorites and I have two pairs in wide. However you are correct, they are not quite wide enough for my feet, so will be looking for a new shoe soon. But I loooove them otherwise!
