Product Information
Full details
The HOKA Bondi 9 is an ideal choice for female runners and walkers who prioritize maximum cushioning and a smooth, stable ride during daily exercise. Designed with a supercritical EVA foam midsole, these trainers provide exceptional comfort and impact protection for those with a neutral gait. While the plush cushioning makes them perfect for long-distance training or recovery runs, they may feel slightly bulky for those who prefer lightweight, minimalist racing shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for overpronation?
The Bondi 9 is designed for a neutral gait; it does not contain the extra medial support typically found in stability shoes.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are engineered specifically for road running. They lack the aggressive lug patterns required for loose dirt or technical trails.
How often should I replace my Bondi 9s?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and individual gait.
Are they true to size?
HOKA footwear is generally true to size. If you prefer a bit of extra room for toe splay during long runs, some users prefer a half-size up.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for foot swelling during exercise.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try re-lacing the shoes using a 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure over the midfoot.
Accumulated dirt on the mesh
Let the mud dry completely and brush it off with a soft-bristled brush before using a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your HOKA Bondi 9 trainers perform optimally, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter periods during the first few days to allow the foam to adapt to your foot.
- Proper Lacing: Use the eyelets to ensure a secure fit that prevents heel slippage without cutting off circulation.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the uppers using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can break down the adhesives and midsole cushioning.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes in a cool, ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping.
