ON Running Shoe Lineup 2024 - Which shoe should you choose?

[@RunningXpert]

What is your favorite On running shoe?

[@wayneharris1546]

Hi, Lars. What is the durability of the Cloudflow and Cloudultra like? Do you run in any On shoes?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey Wayne. Right now I am testing the Cloudeclipse, but have barely started, so yes I am running in On shoes at the moment. But the last time I got to test a pair was the first Cloudultra, maybe 1.5 years ago. I had no issues with the durability there, and I gave it a proper beating in the Norwegian mountains. When it comes to the Cloudflow 4, which is recently updated, the durability should be improved because of the new outsole with fewer individual cloud elements and a more incorporated design that also inhibits stones from getting stuck. As I go from shoe to shoe a lot, I don't get to test pairs of running shoes for longer periods, so I would really appreciate it if other people could give their opinions on this topic as well. Hope you are having a nice Black Friday! Lars

[@meinards5614]

Cloudstratus 3

[@wayneharris1546]

Thank you, Lars for your comments. How do the Cloudultra, with the open pods, cope with water and mud? Do they become heavy?@@RunningXpert

@@wayneharris1546 I didn't have any issues with this when I ran in them. Lars

[@richdavis9693]

Avoid the Cloudsurfer Trail. They are dangerous. I bought a pair in April 2024 and love them, they look cool, they are light, and they have fantastic cushioning for old knees. However, they are fatally flawed. I took them for a 16 mile trail run today, they have done about 200-250 miles and on inspecting the sole, I was shocked to find the lugs on the heel have completely worn down. I paid £150 in April, so if you extrapolate the cost versus longevity they are working out about 3x more expensive than my other brands (Saucony Peregrine, Adidas Terrex). i.e. to get the same distance over the life of the shoe I would need 3 pairs. Secondly, the lugs are very shallow and the grip is appalling. I have nearly come a cropper on simple moors trails a few times, slipping on rocks, slipping on wood, slipping on anything that isn't flat, dry and stable. I don't trust them and will retire them as a treadmill shoe. Unfortunately this means I will never buy On again, which is disappointing as I did love them upon purchase. Afraid they are style over substance, and I now view On as a fashion brand rather than a serious sports apparel brand.

[@johnkinnander9139]

I don't particularly trust road-leaning brands with making trail shoes. Look into Inov-8, Icebug or my personal favourites VJ. They know what they're doing.

[@MiracleWarriors]

Is the ON Cloud Flow 4 closer to a Nike Pegasus 40 ,or closer to an Adidas Adios 8, or it is a very fast shoes that could rival an Asics Magic Speed 3 ? I'm not sure how fast or how much cushioning it has ... thanks .

[@RunningXpert]

Hey MiracleWarrior! I have been off for the holidays, so I'm late at answering. I would say it is closer to a Adios than a Pegasus. Happy new year! Lars

Which shoe would you recommend if I run 5 to 10k every other day? Planning on using it as well for longer races/runs.

[@m.arshakrisnadian769]

Cloud surfer

[@Themccrumfamily]

Which would you recommend or long walks or all day lots of steps wear?

[@huntrrams]

As someone who’s been using On shoes for several years, I walk a lot in my job and highly recommend the Cloudstratus, Cloundnova Form and Cloudmonster models.

[@hsb4002]

I recommend cloudtilt

[@MaximaToluene]

@@huntrrams can you help me pick one? haha or are they equally good

I bought a cloud 5 and it was very disappointing. The sole wore out in less than 8 months using them two times a week. My adidas superstar from 2 years still have good soles

[@a-duck-in-disguise]

would they work well for 5ks and speed training? i currently have brooks and i dont know if they’d be better or worse

Yeah they are a lot better than most brooks for speed training and races o would reccomend the cloud surfers

[@a-duck-in-disguise]

@ ok thanks!!

[@HH-fl1dc]

Great video as usual! Question; which model would u compare to the saucony endorphin speed or Hoka Mach 5?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey, thank you! Speed and Mach are just a bit different to what On makes, but I think the Cloudflow might be the closest thing there. It should be a bit firmer than both the Speed and the Mach, but I have heard good things about the upgrade to Cloudflow 4 (haven't been able to try it though). Lars

[@Sanjaymtl19]

What about cloudspark?

[@voilalala0305]

hvad for nogen løbesko vil i anbefale til løbebund

[@RunningXpert]

Hej, Cloudflow 4 er nok en meget god til løbebånd og fitness generelt. Den er ikke så blød lidt lavere skumhøjde og et løbebånd giver noget blødhed. Hvis du vil have en sko der måske er lidt mere affjedring i, så ville jeg valgt Cloudmonster, da den har en tynd overdel, der ikke bliver for varm indendørs og lidt mere skum end Cloudflow. Lars

[@voilalala0305]

tunsen tak for jers feedback@@RunningXpert

[@orrireid4438]

I don’t run that much, but I do walk A LOT daily. Kinda considering between Cloud 5 and Cloudflow 4 for daily driver (work included). Which one do you think suits better for the function? Thanks!

[@gibreezy]

I’m in the same boat I’d like to know also, but it doesn’t look like he responds to comments much

[@RunningXpert]

Hey @orrireid4435, I hope you have had a great weekend. I would consider the Cloud 5 more a walking shoe than a running shoe, but it will have less support than the Cloudflow 4. So it all comes down to what kind of hold you want a around the midfoot. The Cloudflow 4 will have a stronger grip on your foot, support you more, and would probably be my shoe of choice between those two. But it's all about taste. Lars

[@RunningXpert]

Hey @gibreezy, I have answered the comment above so hopefully you'll get a notification as well. Hope you've had a great weekend! Lars

[@orrireid4438]

@@RunningXpert ahh gotcha. Most of my shoes are from Skechers, so I suppose Cloudflow 4 is a better choice if I want to adapt easier?

[@RunningXpert]

Well, that again depends on what shoe from Sketchers you've had. :D Overall I find the Cloudflow 4 to be a more preferable shoe for me, but if you look at sales numbers then most people use the Cloud 5 as a walking shoe. Lars

[@zoelfikarrp]

how about on cloudtilt?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey, Cloudtilt is made to be a walking shoe or a sneaker, not necessarily a running shoe. you could probably run a little bit in it, but it is not its primary function. Lars

[@zoelfikarrp]

@@RunningXpert so cloudtilt is far better for walking long and stand long than any of them?

[@RunningXpert]

@@zoelfikarrp Depends on what you like. I haven't tried the Cloudtilt. But normally walking shoes have a bit more durability and less breathability. But I can't confirm that this is the case with the Cloudtilt. If you like to have a lot of cushion under foot and more breathability in the upper, then running shoes are better for standing in. But they might not last as long. Does this make sense? Lars

[@zoelfikarrp]

@@RunningXpert ah ya i got it thanks bro

[@PsGetSid_]

Hei Lars hva vil du anbefale : jeg løper på clifton 9 og lurer på One Cloudmonster 2

[@RunningXpert]

Hei Ghost-br7ut, Det er jo ingen sko som helt ligner på Clifton 9, men den som er nermest er nok Cloudsurfer. Den er bare ikke så mye struktur og støtte i som Clifton 9. Cloudmonster er også en veldig god vei å gå. Her får du noe du kan løpe litt fortere i, men som fortsatt har litt demping. Men det er fint å fite at den nok ikke vil føles helt så myk som en Clifton 9 vil. Lars

[@RizkyPurayaksha]

What about Cloudtilt series?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey. The cloutilt series are made for walking and work best as a traveling shoe or a sneaker for daily use. Lars

[@duoseptem5109]

How about Cloudnova Form 2? I really want to buy it, it seems pretty nice but I can't find anyone talking about this model!

[@RunningXpert]

Hey, Cloudnova Form 2 is a all day sneaker with some running ability and not necessarily a dedicated running shoe. We havn't been able to try it out ourselves, but if you are looking for a running shoe I would probably try a different shoe from On. Lars

[@Trilobitumen]

Which one for a music festival? Lots of walking around and jumping around in place?

[@RunningXpert]

I'm not sure which Saucony you are talking about? The Saucony Ride 16? If you are looking for a mid sized neutral running shoe, like the torin, then I would probably go for the Phantom, Magnifly or the Specter, depending on what drop you would like and what weight. Hope this helps. Lars

[@Bare-db8gj]

Hi, i run weekly around 10-21KM and and need shoes that i can use for daily. Which one do you think ON Shoes i should choose? Thankyou

[@RunningXpert]

Hey. I would probably get the cloud monster if I vary the speed a bit or the cloud surfer if I just want to run in comfort. Hope this helps. Lars

[@homamk4405]

Which one you recommend for flat foot?

[@RunningXpert]

In essence, whichever fits you. But some people with flat feet like a bit of support around the arch, and then the Cloudrunner would be the best option. If you want to be in a neutral shoe, then I would suggest the Cloudstratus as a stable and good shoe with a wider fit, and the Cloudmonster if you want a more tight fit. Lars

[@ladyintensity]

​@RunningXpert I was going to get the Monster until I read your comment. I can't have an arch in my shoe due to fibromas in my arch, and I need a wide fit in the toes. Thank you!

[@rumiirfan2495]

Which on would you recommend for HIIT with alot of jumping Which provides the most arch support for impact workouts?

[@ahastar1141]

I think they have a cloud x shoe that is made specifically for work outs

[@Ha-nw2dl]

you are the best thx

[@Neronero41]

how about the cloudventure?

[@TheMadkozzie]

What are the most breathable ones? (For daily use)

[@RunningXpert]

Hey. The Cloud Monster really breathable and has a thin upper, but nice cushioning for daily use. Lars

[@ronaldcagle8094]

How do they run size wise compared to Nike ? I’m interested in a daily shoe either cloud runner or monster

[@RunningXpert]

Hey. This is highly subjective, but I have tried the Cloud Eclipse and Cloudboom Echo 3, and find them alle a tad long compared to my pegasus 40 and my invincible 3. Not by much, but those shoes are at a spot where it might be worth it to size down. Lars

[@FragranceEuphoria]

I know these are technically running shoes but is there one best for walking? If so which one?

[@RunningXpert]

If you ask me, then I really like the Cloud stratus as a cushioned walking shoe, but if you like something a bit firmer, then I have seen a lot of people using the cloudflow as a sneaker. And some of collegues who like softer shoes like to use the Cloudsurfer as a sneaker. Lars

[@jeffreyman8862]

Which one is fit in wide feet?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey. Both Cloudstratus or Cloudeclipse give some space for the foot. But they are both the standard "D" width and not "E2" if that makes sense. Lars

[@devkhatri6444]

Would be more important to know which one is the best for all day standing and all day walking

[@RunningXpert]

Hey, That is a good point. It is a hard thing to suggest though, because some people like a softer shoe and some like it harder. Some want a very comfortable and plush shoe and some like it as breathable as possible. I would probably use a Cloudflow 4 for walking because it is light, breathable, and a little firmer. If you like a softer and more breathable one, Cloud Monster would be a great option, and if you want a soft and plush shoe, the Cloud Stratus should be a great possibility. Lars

[@akshar5232]

Which one is good for long day standing ?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey. It depends if you want a bit more plushness in the upper or a tighter fit. I think the Cloud flow 4 would be great if you want a shoe for walking and want a tighter fit around the midfoot. The Cloud stratus is a softer shoe with a softer upper and more space for your toes. I think both of them would be great for long day standing. Lars

[@shyrahman4506]

What is good about ON shoes I run with Nike ALPHAFLY

[@RunningXpert]

Hey Shyraman4506, On shoes are great running shoes with a very distinct look and a bit firmer feel. Nike Alphafly is a great marathon racing shoe, and the closest thing On has, is the Cloudboom Echo 3. Do you use Alphafly as you main running shoe or as a racing shoe? Lars

[@shyrahman4506]

@@RunningXpert I use them for when I go out running on the streets for a normal run but when I go to the gym I use the Nike air zoom tempo next %

[@RunningXpert]

Yeah, Well, most of the shoes that I show in this video are quite different from the shoes you use. Alphafly is a pure marathon racer and the tempo next% is a tempo trainer. In general these on shoes are made to last longer and will feel a lot closer to daily trainers from Nike than the racing shoes. They will not be as springy, and in general more stable when landing. Lars

[@Bread_n_Butter.]

Their shoes just cost roo much. Its like every single shoe they make has the "premium" shoe price.

[@davidborg3482]

Have you tried any of them for at least 200 miles to have a solid opinion?

[@jaywbus]

best explanation so far! I tried filtering on their website and those results were not very accurate. some shoes were missing for each filter. #onrunning

[@Clownage69]

What's the best shoe for overpronators?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey :D I would suggest the Cloudrunner or the Cloudflyer if you are a overpronator. But If you want a bit of extra cushion as well, then the Cloudstratus is a very stable neutral shoe. Lars

[@HosaBosa]

Theres soo msny models of ons i need a pair that are perfect for my job which i usually tend to put in 15k to 22k steps a day and my shoes now are the nike gianas 4 freaks and the sides of my toes blidtered up and being short handed for workers im having to more work around the store so i need soemthing comfortable a little bit taller shoe/wider and something that will last me a long time. Hope you have a good recommendation for my need!

[@RunningXpert]

Hey HosaBosa, I would proabably go for the Cloudstratus for walking everyday. There you'll get a tiny bit of a wider fit, and a very comfortable and stable midsole. Hope you are having a great summer! Lars

[@HosaBosa]

@RunningXpert alrighty i bought cloud monsters and eclipses to test them both out would the eclipses be better than them both then? So far it's been a great summer just been working a lot pretty much every day. Hope the same for you too.

[@michaelrichmann8399]

Hey hosa did you like the eclipses or the monsters better?

[@HosaBosa]

@michaelrichmann8399 there's a lot more comfort and cushion in the eclipses I wish they were a bit wider, I can see the indents of my toes in the sole from like sweat and my big toe is almost touching the sides but it still is a really great pair of shoes and would recommend them over the monsters. Not sure about the monster 2s or the hypers but I just had the original monsters. Also people said that the eclipses were very squeaky and I do have to say they are quite squeaky but getting down from a step stool and a ladder I can feel the foam under my foot and feels so nice.

[@RunningXpert]

Hey! There are many from On, and personally I really like walking and standing in On shoes. If it was up to me I would probably walk in a Cloudmonster or a Cloudstratus, as they have plenty of cushion, but aren't too soft. The Monster will have more breathability if you like that, and the stratus will have more space for your foot. If its a bit too epensive, then plder version are available on our site in some sizes, and the cloudrunner should also be a nice, stable and comfortable option with a lower price. Hope this helped. You are welcome to ask more questions :D Lars

[@supersonic79]

Where does the CloudTilt sit in this line up?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey Supersonic! The CloudTilt is first and foremost a comfortable walking shoe, and not a running shoe. It does have Helion Superfoam, but we haven't tested it ourselves, and must then trust On's own judgement when they are calling this a walking shoe. Lars

[@eliasmunoz5284]

I love the cloud flow as a daily trainer, currently70 miles pw. I also hate the cloudsurfer, I think its mushy and sloppy.

[@RunningXpert]

Yes, two very different shoes you talk about there. I think people will in general like one or the other, and not both :D We also think the Cloudsurfer is more of a jogger type of shoe, more comfort and softness, and less speed and agility. Thanks for your insights. Lars

[@silversurfer9090]

so if I want a shoe for everyday casual use which one is for me? Which one is closer to a Nike Pegasus and which one closer to a Nike Invincible run?

[@RunningXpert]

Hey Silversurfer. These are two very different companies that make very different shoes, so a direct conversion is quite hard :D. We think the Invincible and the CloudEclipse could be compared, but there is a difference in the softness, with Nike a lot softer. The shoe that resembles the Pegasus the most might be the CloudGo. But again, they are quite different. If you want a shoe that has some cushion, but that also can turn up the pace, then the CloudMonster could also be an option. Lars

@ Would you recommend me the Cloudmonsters?

[@RunningXpert]

​@@Santix777 I would recommend cloudmonsters if you want a shoe that is for both daily training and some faster days, and I would recommend the cloud stratus or the cloudeclipse if you want something that is for more cushioned days. Just remember. Most injuries are not related to shoes, but overtraining or overloading your body. So cahnging shoes might not help and probably isn't the solution. But it is the solution if you have a bad fitting shoe. Fit is always a thing that can sometimes be hard to figure out in regards to shoes. Every foot is different, so I can't say if these shoes will fit you on not. But in general, the cloudmonster is more narrow (race fit), the cloud stratus is medium width and the cloudeclipse is wider. Hope this helps. Lars

Every shoe is in a category and has several descriptions, both in the title and the spec screen, and every section has a conclusion where I sum up the differences between the shoes. I agree that it can still be confusing, and flow charts could help make it clearer, but you really don't need a PhD to understand a progressive decline in softness. :D.

@@coolmanu55 The Cloudsurfer is not forward-rolling or responsive. It is a soft and light casual running shoe. It does not have a fast feel. I would go for the Cloud Monster 2, hands down.

If you’re from my boomer generation, you would first do some digging on the back of the tip i just gave you about features vs benefit, especially when the Internet is at your finger tips. But, no, instead you prefer to be lazy and for someone to spoonfeed you - that’s what you mean by ‘a conversation’. Oh, sure, the world owes you conversations. Good luck to you.

Hey Kindface :D Thanks again for your answer! Having conversations on this channel helps spread the video to even more people. I am very aware of the different benefits of running shoes, which could easily be boiled down to comfort, stability, and speed. All aspects that we are talking about in this video. In this lineup video, we take care not to go too deep into each shoe and make use of the features as a guide to show the differences between shoes, that in some cases, are very similar. If you think we are doing a bad job, then it's okay. We won't suffer for it, and all we can do is try to improve and get better. When it comes to you not owing us your time, that is okay. Remember, we are just answering your first inquiry. We still hope you are having a great day. Keep running, and I hope you figure out which shoe you need with your own research. If you have any questions about On running shoes. Feel free to ask. Lars

is it just me or is this brand just ugly and overrated? I wouldn't even wear these shoes if they were free
