The HOKA Bondi 9 delivers the brand’s signature maximum cushioning with thoughtful updates that enhance comfort, fit, and durability. Designed for everyday running, jogging, walking, and all-day wear, this ultra-cushioned neutral shoe is built for those who prioritise plush comfort and smooth transitions.

Underfoot, the Bondi 9 introduces supercritical EVA foam, offering a softer, more responsive ride with improved shock absorption. An additional 2mm of stack height increases protection from hard surfaces while maintaining a balanced, stable feel. HOKA’s signature MetaRocker™ geometry gently guides the foot through the gait cycle, promoting effortless heel-to-toe movement on easy runs and recovery days.

The upper has been refined with a structured knit jacquard that delivers zonal breathability and a secure yet accommodating fit. A 3D-moulded heel collar improves step-in comfort, reduces heel slippage, and enhances overall stability, while the rearfoot-focused Active Foot Frame™ cradles the foot for added support. Finished with a Durabrasion rubber outsole in high-wear zones, the Bondi 9 is engineered to withstand daily mileage and long hours on your feet.

Whether you’re logging recovery miles, training consistently, or spending all day standing or walking, the Bondi 9 delivers cloud-like comfort with reliable durability.
