We are going to tell you about the improvements that have been incorporated to this model. We start with the midsole, where we find the most significant changes. This has been modified and the meta rocker plate has been added, a common component in Hoka One One shoes. With this update, the shoe has a high level of shock absorption, which improves the feel of the feet and the smoothness of the running stride . What is clear in this model is that it is perfect for those who are looking for cushioning and a cushioned feel above all else in a Running shoes.

As for the upper, the Hoka One One Bondi 6 has opted for a new design with open engineered mesh. The overlays in its construction create a snug, natural fit. Also in the heel area, it has opted for a new comfortable lycra structure to wrap the heel in a more comfortable and secure way. Its exterior design we could say that it has a minimalist style in addition to the mesh that we mentioned earlier is more porous.

We continue with the sole area where it has opted to increase the traction and durability of the same through a tight sole design. Its composition is based on EVA in the central area. Also in that part has been modified by making a flexion cut that favors the stride, so in the tread increases the balance and dynamics of the rhythm. They have also been strategically placed in the forefoot and heel. To improve flexibility, we have the flex groove system and in general, we can say that the outsole has the same coverage as other editions but with a lighter weight.

As for technical specifications, the drop in this model is 4 mm. And the weight of the Hoka One One Bondi 6 is 310gr.
