Bondi 8

Max CushionPlanned release 2022-07-15JP

Bondi 8 is a max-cushioned road model for long runs and everyday jogging. Softer, lighter and more resilient foam replaces the previous setup, with an extended heel and billowed rear crash pad shaping transitions. Engineered mesh, a gusseted tongue and recycled-content Ortholite Hybrid sockliner refine the upper, while zonal Durabrasion rubber balances wear protection with lower outsole weight.

Intended uses:
Jog, Long run
