If you are looking for an experience similar to the traditional Hoka One One shoe, this Bondi 3 may be a good choice. It is ideal for runners who crave a lightweight, stable shoe with great cushioning.
The Hoka One One Bondi 3, like its predecessor, continues to perform well among neutral and mildly pronated runners who run on both track and asphalt. With 50 percent more surface area in contact with the ground, the Bondi 3 is able to offer stability, protection and pronation control unmatched in a shoe of this type.
Its rocker midsole, coupled with its large size, allowsit to absorb virtually any impact when runningand with each stride produces greater acceleration in the forefoot. In addition, they are manufactured with the CMEVA material that the French firm Hoka integrates in the midsole of all its shoes and that confers a high degree of cushioning in running.
The two significant improvements that have been included in this Bondi 3 model are:
On the one hand, a water drainage system, strategically placed in the midsole to evacuate water out quickly, making it a great ally for an athlete when running a race.
On the other hand, better materials have been used in its manufacture compared to the Bondi 2 model, which has contributed to improve important aspects of a shoe such as: resistance, breathability and lightness.
In short, it is a trail running shoe for runners looking for comfort, stability and good cushioning, thanks to its 45 drop and an approximate weight of 315 grams.
