The Hoka Bondi 9 Is a CERTIFIED BANGER - Lab Test & 102 Mile Review

The Daily Hobby Jogger Show · 2025-01-30

The Hoka Bondi 9 is a max cushioned shoe designed for comfortable miles and daily time on feet. Redesigned for the 9th generation with a new foam, I loved all my early miles in this shoe. In this episode, I give my updated thoughts on the Bondi 9, put it through the lab and let you know who should buy it.
