On Thursday, Olivia Wilde was spotted wearing the popular Hoka Bondi 8 sneakers after a workout in Los Angeles. She chose the all-black version of the running shoe which features a large ultra-cushioned sole with a wavy design that extends past the back of the shoe.
Hokas have a wide appeal, thanks to their comfort, performance and wide-range of colorways. They have been spotted on everyone from President Joe Biden to Cameron Diaz, Gayle King, Harry Styles and Reese Witherspoon. The Hoka Bondi 8 appears to be Wilde’s latest workout shoe of choice, as she’s been photographed in them multiple times on her way to and from her workouts in March.

In 2023, the “Don’t Worry Darling” director opted for Adidas for her workouts: their classic black Sambas and the Gucci collab Gazelles.
Wilde is often photographed leaving her high-end Los Angeles workout studio in stylish athleisure and her latest sneaker of choice.
