FAQs
Are the HOKA Bondi 9 shoes waterproof?
No, they feature an engineered mesh upper designed for maximum breathability, which allows water to pass through.
Can I use these for trail running?
While the rubber outsole has flex grooves for varied terrain, these are primarily engineered for road and smooth surface use.
How do I know if the Bondi 9 is the right size?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the internal sockliner can be removed if you need to insert custom orthotics.
How often should I replace my Bondi 9s?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and gait.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure around the ankle collar
Adjust the tension of the top two laces to allow more movement in the 3D moulded collar area.
Debris getting inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are secured snugly to keep the tongue centered and reduce gaps around the midfoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Bondi 9 trainers, proper maintenance is essential:
- Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Never place your shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as high heat can damage the foam midsole.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can cause the materials to warp or degrade.
- Fit Check: Ensure the 3D moulded collar sits comfortably around your ankle without creating pressure points. If you experience discomfort, try adjusting the lacing tightness near the top eyelets.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the mesh upper.
