Size & Fit

The Bondi 9 uses HOKA’s standard men’s fit with a secure heel and midfoot plus comfortable room through the forefoot. Choose your usual running-shoe size; if you are between sizes, the half size up is often the safer choice. Xciter sizes are shown in US with the UK equivalent.

Why You’ll Love It

Peak plushness for everyday miles — The Bondi 9’s supercritically foamed EVA midsole delivers the soft, resilient underfoot feel that defines HOKA’s max-cushion category.

Smooth, stable transitions — Smooth MetaRocker™ geometry and a broad platform help the shoe roll forward naturally while keeping the ride reassuringly planted.

Built to handle plenty of use — A breathable engineered upper, padded 3D collar and Durabrasion rubber in high-wear zones make it a dependable option for running, walking and long days on your feet.
