Bondi 8

Max CushionReleased 2022-07-15JP

Bondi 8 is a max-cushioned road model for long runs and everyday jogging. Compared with Bondi 7, it uses softer, lighter, more resilient foam, extended heel geometry, and a billowed rear crash pad to guide transitions. An engineered-mesh upper, partially gusseted tongue, and Ortholite Hybrid sockliner refine hold, while zonal Durabrasion rubber protects high-wear areas without covering the full outsole.
