It will like long-term fans of the line and maybe win over a few new fans.

In my Hoka Bondi 9 Ill compare it to theHoka Skyflowand thebest running shoesfrom other brands.

The weight is in line with other big cushioned options like theAsics Gel-Nimbus 27orSaucony Hurricane 24.

Youll need those faster options because the Bondi 9 is not a versatile shoe.

Should you buy the Hoka Bondi 9?

However, it feels a bit too limited for me.
