I've been wearing these shoes for a few weeks and so far, so good. I like the fit, comfort and style. They are also good for my wide feet. I typically go with Asics wide, 9US. Here I bought an 8.5US and they are great so far. I bought the CloudX as a middle of the road cross trainer and for light runs. They definitely feel different than what I was used to on the sole, but neither better nor worse, just different... I am very happy with the purchase so far.

I've heard great things about the On brand for their comfort, so I bought these shoes. I've used them a handful of times in the gym and for walking. The heel lockdown is great and there's lots of room in the toe box. I'm not sure how these would perform for running, but I think they would be ok for short distance running in a pinch. The only complaint that I have is that the material around the ankle is somewhat rigid, so it is a little uncomfortable around the ankle if you tie them very tight. However, I found that wearing socks that aren't too short to solve the problem.

I bought these shoes for walking the pup, the feature that I looked for was the contact surface of the shoes. I walk a lot and every day so the bottoms of the shoes wear out quickly, however theses shoes have endured 100+ miles and the bottoms are holding up with min. Wear! Only issue I have is they seem to be just a little hard as far as cushion goes, but over very impressed with the shoe

I purchased these shoes as a gift for Fathers Day and my dad loves them! He works long shifts where he is constantly on his feet, and he said these shoes are extremely comfortable!(I know it says to size up 1/2 size, but I do recommend trying them on first! My dad was able to buy his regular shoe size, and they fit perfectly!)
This was my first time trying ON. I wanted a cross trainer that had enough support for me to jog 5-7k and lift in, as well as enough lateral stability to play tennis with. When I received them, I was very impressed by their weight, support and overall style. In the end, I opted for one running shoe and another tennis shoe but if you're in the market for a multi workout shoe this is a strong contender.
I love the On Cloud X shoes. This is my second pair. In my experience, these run a half size larger than the Cloud 2.0 slip-ons, of which I also have several. These are even more lightweight, and equally as comfortable as the 2.0s. The only downside is having to tie shoelaces with the Xs. The slip-ons have got me spoiled. But I absolutely love the look and feel of these. I mostly wear them for casual use and sometimes for light biking. My favorite OC support shoe for longer walks and, I imagine, for running, would be the Cloudstratus. They are worth checking out as well! I do not recommend Cloud X Shift. The footed, to me, feels a bit less comfortable than the other OCs that I own.
Nice fit. Good wide toe box. Really light feel and decent cushion. I use for gym and do not run in these. Upper material doesn't seem to breathe as well as Brooks that I run in. The cost to value isn't there for me. First pair of clouds and probably last
I am a fitness class instructor and use these for Circuit and studio classes including group cycling classes. These being the second pair I have bought. An excellent cross training shoe that is very light but gives me the stability that I need. Also good for short runs. They also attract the attention of my class participants. I use them to cycle to the leisure centres with no problem. A great good looking trainer shoe. The only mild criticism would be that they are only good for lifting light weights such as in Bodypump type classes. Not so stable for heavy weights. Overall a fantastic cross training shoe for all round workouts.
I own a number of On Running shoes and this is one of my favourites. Lighter than the Cloud, with similar platform. Would've been great to have the elastic lace option with these but doesn't come with those laces, but these are easily available and I wrap all my shoes with elastic laces. Shoes are stable, neutral and provides low drop between ultra-minimal zero. drops, and traditional high drop shoes (8-10mm+ drop)
To start my review, I would say it runs TRUE TO SIZE. I spent hours on google and youtube whether to order my tts or a half size up. The shoes is lightweight and has a minimalist appeal. I've never tried running or brisk walking with these or going to the gym. I bought these for everyday wear and work shoes.
