In this post, we’re going to dive into the Hoka Bondi versus the Gaviota. You’ll discover not just what makes both of these shoes so popular but also the differences between the two and which may be better for you.
The Bondi and Gaviota are two of the most popular Hoka models.
So let’s start with the Bondi.
As in previous posts and videos, you’ll see how the Bondi has plenty of cushion, plenty of support, and removable insoles.
It’s the type of shoe that works well for a lot of different people.
It’s a good training shoe, walking shoe, casual shoe, and is one of the most popular shoes that help our customers with foot pain.
I also find that the Bondi 7 is actually a better shoe than the Bondi 8. And you can see why here.
As for the Gaviota, it too has plenty of cushion, support, and removable insoles.
But there are a few key differences.
The first is that it has a wider toe box to allow for your toes to spear out more.
The second big difference is that it has a medial support system, which ads more support on your arch when your foot pronates.
And the fit is a little different than that of the Bondi.
Plus, it’s a few dollars more because there is a bit more material with the shoe.
Either way, both shoes are solid.
If you’re looking at which one is better, it just comes down to how they fit on your feet.
And if you’d like to know which one is a better “fit” for your feet, scroll down and schedule up a time to come to the store for a fitting session, and we can find which one is right for you.
