Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Bondi 9 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are designed for a standard adult fit. Wear the specific socks you intend to use for running to ensure proper volume in the toe box.
- Break-in: While they provide immediate comfort, a short walk or light jog is recommended before taking them on a long-distance effort.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary. Never machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can compromise the foam integrity and glue bonds.
- Air Drying: Always air dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight or radiators to prevent the knit upper and midsole materials from warping or degrading.
