Better made than older Hoka shoes |

This is my third pair of Hokas and second pair of Bondis. I have to wear Hokas as I have hallux limitus, an arthritic condition of the big toe, and the rocker sole means they don't flex under that joint. These have a proper rocker sole - some of the other Hokas, like the Mafate Speed, flex too much for me.
I've done about 700k in them, the majority off road, and they're about due for replacement. The softer bits of the sole are worn down now but the harder rubber is holding up well so they're wearing evenly.
They are far better made than my previous Hokas, particularly the uppers. Plenty of space in the toe box. Not as much shock absorption as Mafates but less clumpy, and fine on tracks. No good in winter mud though. I'm going to replace them with Mafate 4s as I need more grip and better shock absorption.
