I’m going to have to disagree with the other reviewers here about these sneakers. They look great, completely agree there. Stylish and I’m generally a fan of ON sneaks. But they lose me immediately upon further inspection and wear. For starters, the vegan leather is incredibly thin and flimsy-feeling. No way these shoes are going to hold up for very long. I put a lot of miles on my shoes in NYC, and these wouldn’t last a weekend. Second, the leather is puckering out of the box; it’s so thin it has no structure, and it waves and folds like fabric, which ON tried to mitigate with strategically placed stitches. Third, the tongue and ankle are thick and over-stuffed with foam. Combined with the unbreathable vegan leather, they’ll make for sweat boxes in the summer. And ... MoreI’m going to have to disagree with the other reviewers here about these sneakers. They look great, completely agree there. Stylish and I’m generally a fan of ON sneaks.

And lastly, they run small, I disagree with sizing down - if anything, size up from your normal size. Toe box is tiny and too short, and they run very narrow.I really wanted to like these shoes, but they’re a hard no for me. Especially at this price point.

My third pair in 3 years, so clearly I am a fan.Women’s size was sold out, so I ordered them in men’s. Still great. They’re comfortable, and go with just about everything. They look and feel great. The outer components of the shoe hold up for a long time as well. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the market for a “lifestyle” shoe.My only advice/con with this shoe:1. avoid walking over gravel/ rock areas, as rocks tend to get stuck in the hollow space of the outsole of the shoe (the design is aesthetically pleasing… until a rock gets stuck)2. The heel counter/ heel lining wears rather fast in my opinion. I love that these shoes are easy to slip on. However with both previous pairs, I could begin to feel the plastic/cardboard material breaking down in the ... MoreMy third pair in 3 years, so clearly I am a fan.Women’s size was sold out, so I ordered them in men’s.

Especially given the price)All in all, would highly recommend.

I recently purchased the Roger in black and love the way it looks and feels. This shoe is perfect for walking, playing tennis, or even paring with dress slacks or a suit. My wardrobe is mostly black exercise shorts or pants and this shoe looks great with them. it is nor always easy to find a good looking pair of athletic shoes, but the Roger fits that profile. Roger Federer has done a wonderful job with this line and should be proud of his cooperation with On Cloud.
The Roger courtside is a a great updated vintage look in leather. They are comfortable and nice to wear with jeans when you want to stay casual but dress up your look. They fit true to size. I sometimes go down a half size for some tennis shoes but I wear my normal dress shoe size in The Roger.
I bought these shoes with a relative low expectationsI play singles and doubles in a high demanding leagueand ASICS Novak Djokovic are by far the top shoes for this sport. However, the comfort, the design, the easy to adjust shoe with almost no “break in” time, made them a fantastic competitor and a great sneaker. I definitely recommend
I love On Cloud shoes, and I've bought a pair every year since they debuted. In fact, they are my favorite running shoes; however, this model is horrible. They are stiff and even after 100 miles in them, they don't seem to be getting any better. In particular, the heels chafe the skin terribly because they are too rigid. The materials just seem much different than those in their other products and not only are they the worst On Cloud shoes I have ever bought, they're also one of the least comfortable pair of shoes that I have ever owned (They're even worse than Converse, so...)While I will likely buy more On Cloud shoes, I will not blindly trust them as I have in the past, and I regret this purchase immensely.
I love these shoes, they look great with everything and are comfortable throughout the day. The thing is, they smell right away, out of the box, like bad. After day one of casual wear they reeked like sour feet- and one sock is enough to fill a room with the smell. I have to scrub my feet as soon as I take them off. I've never had shoes stink like this. Did they infuse Eau de Tennis-player-feet into the footbed?Unfortunately, it's a deal breaker for me and I'm throwing them away.
I was looking for a clean, white, everyday, lifestyle sneaker. This is my first pair of On Running shoes. These shoes look decent in terms of design but as others have commented, the vegan leather looks very cheap and plasticky. In addition, they are not particularly comfortable shoes, offering little-to-no cushioning or arch support and they are very hot. In no way do these shoes feel remotely like you are walking on clouds. The lack of comfort is particularly ridiculous given the gimmicky engineering features employed for this type of lifestyle shoe (concealed CloudTec®, Speedboard®, etc.).Overall, it is very unlikely that I would purchase this shoe again. Adidas Sambas or Stan Smiths are considerably more comfortable, better materials, and a lot cheaper.Pros:- ... MoreI was looking for a clean, white, everyday, lifestyle sneaker.

I am a huge fan of this style. I normally wear Addidas and was excited to see The Roger. I noticed right away they fit different than Addidas and at first I thought in a good way. Pros: Roger offers slight arch support, flexible sole and adequate ventilation. I thought these would be great to wear for our recent trip to Sea World and San Antonio Zoo. After averaging 15k steps both days I came with up with the Cons: toe box is low and puts pressure on top of toe nails, not enough cushion or support for lots of walking causing fatigue and soreness in legs. Unfortunately I found these were not great for walking long distances the first day and dreaded wearing them the second day, but only shoes I brought on trip. Conclusion is these are cute and stylish shoes ... MoreI am a huge fan of this style. I normally wear Addidas and was excited to see The Roger.
