Our Verdict
HOKA Bondi 9
Saucony Triumph 24
The Saucony Triumph 24 and HOKA Bondi 9 are both premium cushioned daily trainers, but the Saucony is the far more lively shoe. The HOKA offers slightly more cushioning overall, though it's much heavier and duller underfoot. The Saucony gives up very little protection in exchange for a lighter, bouncier, more responsive ride. Pick the HOKA for a more traditionally cushioned ride; pick the Saucony if you want protection with more pep.
