Hoka One One Bondi 8 Men's Airy Blue, Diva Blue 1123202 ABDB

Airy Blue over Diva Blue reads light, and the ride matches. The Bondi 8 runs a lightweight EVA midsole for a soft, responsive step, extended heel geometry for a smooth heel-to-toe transition, and an engineered mesh upper that keeps things breathable through a full run. A memory foam collar cushions the ankle, and a Durabrasion rubber outsole handles the grip underneath.

What does “extended heel geometry” mean on the Bondi 8? It's a wider, more rounded heel shape that helps smooth out the transition from heel strike into your next stride, part of what makes the Bondi's ride feel so stable.
