HOKA and Marni Join Forces on the Bondi B3LS Sneaker Model
Fashion brand Marni works in collaboration with HOKA on the new Bondi B3LS sneaker model. It comes in four colorways, and it joins the former's Fall/Winter 2025 season as a part of the Pink Sun collection. The two detail the Bondi B3LS model, which first hit the market last year.
The upper has a chunky look made from polyester materials with a partially rubberized build and lightly padded feel. All of this rests on top of a sturdy sole unit at the bottom, which uses a responsive rubber material and cushioned EVA insoles for comfort with every step -- it also has co-branding. More branding for the duo can be seen in the packaging, the tongue pull tab, which nods to HOKA and Marni at the heel's pull tab.
