French athletic footwear brand HOKA ONE ONE has recently unveiled the 'BONDI X,' a reworked version of the brand's signature silhouette with upgraded features and an all-new beach-themed colorway.
Known for its oversized midsole designs, HOKA ONE ONE has brought this same style to the 'BONDI X,' but made efforts to push the sneakers' high-performance design to new heights. As a result, the sneaker is equipped with a propulsive carbon fiber plate in a foam midsole, making it the brand's lightest running shoe to date. Other functional features of the 'BONDI X' include a one-of-a-kind meta-rocker for improved heel-to-toe transition, extended heels, and other specialized geometric designs, all crafted with high-speed performance in mind.
Built with a breathable mesh upper and donning a pleasant white and yellow colorway with blue and orange stylings, these sneakers elicit a breezy, seaside vibe perfect for summertime runs.
