On Cloudrunner 2 Review
We tested the On Cloudrunner 2 on recovery runs, interval workouts and treadmill miles. Did it leave us comfortably supported or craving more structure?
Features
The On Cloudrunner 2 is your feel-good running shoe for training runs and daily wear.
A nice stack of On’s Helion™ superfoam with CloudTec® cushioning underfoot absorbs impact and gives you big energy return to make running feel natural and easy as you rack up the miles. Durable heel clips and a wide base cradle your feet for extra stability, while the upgraded outsole keeps stones out so you can focus on your run.
Details:
- Upper: A plush and padded Swiss-engineered mesh upper made with 100% recycled materials gives you a luxurious step-in feel for instant comfort. The tongue loop keeps your laces in place while you run, and durable heel clips help lock your foot in for extra stability and support.
- Midsole: Loved by experienced and beginner runners alike, an upgraded midsole of Helion superfoam gives you soft landings and energetic take-offs. Plus, CloudTec cushioning absorbs impact to keep your legs feeling fresh from start to finish.
- Outsole: The outsole features strategic rubber placements for durability and traction while a closed channel prevents rocks from getting stuck.

On cloud runner 2
Not as comfortable as oncloud runner. I returned them
Star Rating is 5 / 5
Much better than Hoka!
They fit well and the tread does.not fall apart. My Hokas lasted less than two months. I still have a brand new one in my closet, still in the box, and I don’t think I’ll ever wear them . These shoes instead are great!!!

Excellent Shoes!
These shoes, like their predecessor, are a great fit (have to go up 1/2 size in on cloudrunners). Great bounce in each step and wide and comfortable without being too wide.
