What’s New in the Hoka Bondi 9?
Elevated Cushioning and Stack Height
Hoka has increased the stack height for an even softer, more resilient ride. The introduction of a super critically foamed EVA midsole ensures that signature plush cushioning synonymous with the Bondi series is better than ever. Whether you’re covering easy miles or recovering post-run, the Bondi 9 is built to keep you comfortable mile after mile.
Refined Upper Design
The Bondi 9 now features a structured knit upper, made with 55% recycled polyester, that provides zonal breathability and a secure fit. Details like reflective accents enhance visibility, while a 3D molded collar ensures a snug, cushioned feel around the ankle. An extended heel pull makes putting the shoe on effortless, especially for those on the go.
Durable Outsole
The Durabrasion rubber outsole combats high wear zones, making the Bondi 9 a durable choice for both road and treadmill runners. This outsole is designed to provide excellent traction and maintain performance over time.
