Had this shoe for about a month now and the word that comes to my mind is smooth. The ride is very very smooth. It's also On's softest shoe to date. The initial step in doesn't feel much different than the monster but on the run you can feel way more cushion in that forefoot area in the eclipse. It also seems to get softer and softer after every run (weight: 160 lbs). I've been enjoying it a lot. Great review as always from one Mike to the other.

I'm not so sure about them after the 1st run. Bought them to rotate with the Mach 5's which i absolutely love. The upper on this is super comfy and I had a great lockdown. Even though they're not super light, they didn't feel heavy or clunky like the Mach X. They definitely push you a bit forward, don't feel like a slow run shoe. What i'm torn about is the feel of the midsole. It has a lot of stack, but i feel the pods just collapse and it doesn't feel plush. Also the speed board on the bottom is just weird. It should have been deeper under the foam. You can feel every little rock if you step on it. I'll probably return them and get some cheap Clifton 9's for the easy miles. The standard price here in Europe is 190 but got them on black friday sale for 150. Still on the expensive side, i don't think it's worth it. I think On is getting closer to a proper running shoe, but the might need to create a 2 layer system with a softer foam layer on top and could pods on the bottom.

I'm looking for some advice on building out a proper shoe rotation, and this seems to be the place to be! Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Easy / Recovery / Zone 2 Runs - 5:00-6:00 min per KM pace - 1 to 2 hour runs Currently have the ASICS Gel Nimbus 25 which seem okay for this purpose but would like recommendations for a soft/max cushion shoe to cover the easy, plodding along miles. Must have a very durable outsole as I do roughly 200km per month for this type of run so don't want to be replacing it all the time. Tempo / Interval / Threshold / Hill Repeats - Non-plated Currently use the Puma Nitro Velocity 2 for this but will need to be replaced soon as they have over 700km's on them. Looking for a light, responsive, good energy return, non-plated shoe for the faster runs, again with a durable outsole if possible. Tempo / Interval / Threshold / Hill Repeats - Plated As above but with a plate to help get closer to simulating race-day pace - not an all-out race shoe so there's still a bit of time to gain (probably through a placebo effect) on race-day. Long-run - 25km+ inc. Half Marathon (4:00 min per KM) / Marathon Efforts (4:45 min per KM) Something comfortable for the longer distance training runs that inc. HM/M race-day efforts. Again, a durable outsole would be nice here due to the distance the shoe will be covering. Potentially plated to provide some additional support and energy but not an all-out race shoe 5km / 10km / HM Race Currently using the Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 2 and love it for these distances. Any other recommendations? Marathon / 50km Ultra Race Really like the sound of the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 3 for this category, but any other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Sad to say this but after running 30km in them so far (in rain) the shoes are already starting to squeak. The foam is getting softer at the point making the pods collapsing on itself easier causing the foam to rub against each other. The protective layer that is in the pods probably got washed off by the rain (so maybe adding some oil/powder will reduce the squeak?). Really disappointed they didn't resolve the biggest issue the Cloudsurfer had. The shoe feels lighter than it actually is and for me fit true to size. The foam sits in between the softness of the Cloudsurfer and firmness of the Boston 12. I'm 80kg/176lbs so lighter runners will most likely experience this issue much later than I did. I really like the shoes overall, but I would've liked it a little bit more if the tongue had just a tiny bit more padding.

many On shoes are overpriced but I'm not sure this one is. what do you think about the pricing of the invincible 3 and sc trainer 2? also $180.

Is this new shoe gonna have the same squeaking noise like the latest On Cloudsurfer ? very boring...

Are you saying it would be boring without squeaking? I’m not sure I understand

Sorry I'm French, After 320 Km and a wet track session, with my CloudSurfer bought this year, me and a lot of people online complaning about a very loud plastic sound from the holes in the sole at every step on a run.@@kofuzi

For the price I think Nova 3 or 4 would be better comparable than superblast.
@kofuzi Жыл бұрын
This is either $40 more expensive than the shoes you suggested or $20 cheaper than the ones I suggested Either way, it’s an interesting comparo. But I stand by my opinion for reasons where price is a low consideration

When they squeak, and they will.. talcum powder. Talcum powder is your friend.

@kofuzi Жыл бұрын
it's glib to say, 'meh EVA' and move on, as I think there's more to it than that. you might be missing out. although I suppose at the end of the day, if $180 is too much for you, I guess it don't matter what's in the shoe or how much you might like it
