Cloudrunner 2

Women's

I really liked the feel of these. They still have the wide toe box and stability. I’ve been a Cloudrunner fan for a couple of years. I had to return them because they slipped on my heel even with heel lock tie. I even sized down and those still slipped. I’m really disappointed, because I was excited about a new Cloudrunner.

This is the first time trying this style of ON, I have used their other stability shoe (cloud flyer ) and really like them, but thought these could work for me since they are still a moderate stability shoe, I’m a bit stronger in my running, and honestly the color-way of the “undyed/ green” is what made me give it a shot. They look just as good in person and when I put them on I instantly liked them. I read a lot of reviews about them being “too hard”, but I prefer less cushion (Hoka arahis hurt my joints bc of all the cushion) and lean towards Altra’s etc because I like being able to feel how I’m landing and check my form. I tried these out on my treadmill and noticed that I did not feel like I was getting gassed as quickly, and that I could go a little faster, a little easier. I actually PR’d my 1 mile time the first time I wore these and I was not actively trying to do that, but they really helped me feel like I was not exerting more effort than I needed to. The big test was going to be how I felt the next day, whether any nagging aches and pains arose, and I was legitimately shocked that I didn't feel anything out of the usual light soreness from having done 5 miles, but even more miraculous was some lingering injuries / tendinitis pains that I feel after every run, were not there. I did another 4 miles, 2 days later and same thing - not only did I PR AGAIN by w couple seconds, but I did not have pain after or the following day. I am so tempted to stock up on these shoes because they are incredible for me. I feel like I finally found the right shoe for me and as I train for my next half marathon I feel like I have a better chance of getting through this training cycle with little to no injuries! Worth every penny!!

I am SO amazed with these shoes. I’ve tried on about 5 or 6 pairs of sneakers in the past week trying to find a sneaker wide enough for my feet and nothing has worked! I’ve ordered a wide in every sneaker choice with no luck until I put these bad boys on. The toe box is SO perfect and leaves breathing room for my wide feet. The overall fit of the shoes are very comfortable and breathable. The sole of the shoe has some nice cushion and the laces hold the tie nicely without having to double knot them. Overall, I HIGHLY recommend these in wide to all the wide footed folks out there struggling to find a good wide shoe!

These are my first pair of On Clouds. Took me awhile to get the right size. They are very comfortable and I like the 10mm toe drop as I have high arches. Some say to size up with this brand but I found each style ran very different. They are good for gym & road running. For trail shoes I’d go for another brand.
