{{DISPLAYTITLE:Best Running Shoe Reviews – Hoka BondiReview}}
The [http://www.zappos.com/hoka-one-one-bondi Bondi] was my favorite of the [[Hoka Shoe Review| Hoka range]] for some time. Then the the [[Altra Olympus]], came along, and was a 'better Bondi' because it's shaped for the human foot. Then the [[Hoka Clifton]] came along and produced Minimax cushioning at a remarkably light weight. I've found that the Original Bondi B, the Bondi 2, Bondi 3 and Bondi Speed are all remarkably similar. I have a slight preference for the Bondi Speed, but the difference is mostly visual. I've run with a Bondi B on one foot and the Bondi Speed on the other without feeling any real difference. The Bondi has a horribly small toe box, but once its cut open the shoe works quite well. The Bondi has a reasonable balance of soft cushioning and weight, but has been surpassed by the Clifton. In fact, running with a Clifton on one foot and a Bondi on the other proved to me how close the two shoes feel. The Bondi is not available as a trail specific version, but I've found it works pretty well on most trails, though it lacks the lugs for slick, muddy tails.
