On's unusual-looking outsole—with open rubber pods that compress upon landing, lock, then spring back—solves the perennial problem of how to cushion without creating a squishy stance and push-off.
-
A light and flexible plastic grid in the midsole smooths, balances, and stabilizes the ride.
-
Good looking, well cushioned and fast - not much more I could ask of the shoe is there? Oh yes, I almost forgot comfort!
-
A few minor irritations lose marks for a potentially very fine shoe.
-
High mileage, has a good protection and cushioning, recommended for who likes a firm, flexible feel with a low-key aesthetic.

These shoes would be a great stability trainer for runners of all experience levels.
- The On Cloudcruiser comes with an enhanced upper built. It has soft memory foam in the heel and ankle to deliver a comfortable fit. It also features the innovative lacing system that conforms to the natural shape of the foot for a secure and perfect fit.
- The shoe features a softer cushioning through the 15 high-profile CloudTec elements that delivers impressive impact protection. It provides a well-cushioned landing and powerful toe-off for a more responsive ride.
When it comes to sizing, the Cloudcruiser has a standard running shoe length. The heel gives a narrow fit and a medium fit on the forefoot area. The midfoot has a medium volume for natural fluid motion. This shoe is available in standard D and B widths.
The On Cloudcruiser uses the CloudTec sole that delivers reliable cushioning for high energy return and added durability on high wear areas. The outer sole also features the honeycomb slip pattern that delivers reliable grip on trail and road running.
The shoe utilizes the CloudTec element that delivers reliable cushioning. It absorbs shock during impact and has high energy return for a more powerful push-off. It works well with the high-grade EVA foam that adds midsole durability. This CloudTec technology is also used in the well-known On Cloud running shoes and other shoes from ON Running.
The shoe also uses the full length speedboard plate that increases energy return and provides torsional rigidity. The Integrated Transition Bridge and the Flight Control Pad also helps in delivering an enhanced running performance.
The On Cloudcruiser uses the 3D air mesh upper that delivers a breathable coverage. The air mesh allows efficient air flow, keeping foot well ventilated. Maximum air flow to keep the foot cool is also made possible by the sandwich mesh. It also comes with a non-slip lining that holds that foot securely without any slippage. The heel strap allows the efficient entry and exit of the foot and the reflective TPU cap increases visibility while running on lights.
