Hoka Stinson Evo Tarmac vs Bondi B?

My biggest complaint about the Bondi was the fast (for such an expensive shoe) wear in the midfoot area.

I had the same problem, but I’ve found it hasn’t limited the overall life of the shoe. The wear on the white portion of the soles was incredibly fast, but the rest of the sole and shoe have been very durable. Within 100miles those while sections were worn smooth, but so far I’ve put on another couple hundred miles and the shoe still feels like new and still grips really well. It’s disappointing that such an expensive shoe would do that, but I’m still getting my money out of them.
