Product Information
Full details
The HOKA Bondi 9 trainers are designed for adult athletes and casual walkers seeking maximum cushioning and consistent support during daily activities or training sessions. Known for their signature plush feel, these trainers provide excellent impact absorption, though the high-stack design may feel less responsive to runners looking for a ground-feel experience.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The HOKA Bondi 9 is designed with a standard volume fit. If you typically require wide-width shoes, check for specific 'Wide' variants or consider going up a half-size if necessary.
Can I use custom orthotics with the Bondi 9?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if preferred.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running and training shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and individual gait.
Are these waterproof?
No, the standard Bondi 9 is not waterproof and is designed with breathable mesh materials to keep feet cool.
Can I use these for gym weightlifting?
While comfortable, the high-cushion stack height is not ideal for heavy lifting, as a flatter, firmer base is better for stability under heavy loads.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort or pressure on top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure on the midfoot.
The shoe feels slippery on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole tread is clear of debris. While designed for road use, be cautious on slick surfaces as the high-cushion platform can feel less stable on ice or mud.
Foam appears compressed after limited use
Foam takes time to 'bounce back' after use. Ensure you are giving the shoes at least 24 hours to recover between intensive sessions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Bondi 9 trainers, proper fit and maintenance are essential. When you first receive your pair, ensure you wear them with the socks you intend to use for training to gauge the fit accurately.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft brush, mild detergent, and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent material breakdown. Do not leave in a hot car for extended periods.
- Rotation: If you train daily, consider rotating with another pair to allow the cushioning foam to recover its shape.
