FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Bondi 7 features a breathable upper which is designed for airflow, not water resistance.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the stock insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required.
Are these good for high-intensity running?
The Bondi 7 is designed more for comfort and distance than for speed; it may feel too heavy for high-intensity speed workouts.
How should I clean the polyester upper?
Use a soft brush to remove loose debris, followed by a light wipe with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash.
Does the Bondi 7 fit true to size?
Generally, yes, though the plush padding inside provides a snug, secure feel compared to thinner shoes.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping at the heel
Try using the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a runner's loop, which locks the heel in place.
Shoes feel tight after long periods of wear
Feet often swell during the day; try loosening the laces slightly mid-day to accommodate natural volume changes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Bondi 7 shoes last, it is important to lace them properly to secure the midfoot while allowing the toes to splay naturally. Because these are standard size UK 12.5 fitting, ensure your current arch support or orthotics are compatible with the shoe's internal volume. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Always air-dry your shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the cushioning materials and glues over time.
