Features
Run with confidence from start to finish in the On Cloudrunner 3.
Built for stable landings and smooth toe-offs, this supportive daily trainer features deeper CloudTec cavities and higher sidewalls that cradle your feet for a secure, confidence-inspiring ride. Whether you're just starting out or you're an experienced runner looking for reliable support, the Cloudrunner 3 gives you a stable yet responsive platform to feel energized and in control for every mile.
Details:
- Upper: The well-padded construction features a cushy tongue and heel collar that hug your feet comfortably. Suede accents on the lacing system add a touch of style, while the high-quality materials create a premium feel that works for running and everyday wear.
- Midsole: CloudTec cushioning uses deeper cavities that expand inward, allowing your feet to sit inside the shoe rather than on top of it for truly immersive support. The lightweight Helion superfoam creates a firm yet comfortable ride, while TPU heel clips provide gentle reinforcement on both sides without feeling cumbersome. The decoupled heel lets the shoe move with you naturally while maintaining that supportive platform.
- Outsole: The wide base delivers stable, steady landings that help you feel connected to the ground. The design creates smooth transitions and predictable footing that builds confidence whether you're navigating tight turns or uneven surfaces.
What's New
The Cloudrunner 3 brings deeper CloudTec cavities for enhanced stability during landings and toe-offs, plus a more pronounced decoupled heel that allows for natural movement. It's slightly lighter than the previous version with a lower heel-to-toe drop for a more nimble, natural feel.
Who It's Best For
The On Cloudrunner 3 is a great option for runners and walkers at all levels who appreciate a firm, yet forgiving ride with steady support. Whether you have flexible feet that benefit from a little extra reinforcement or you simply prefer feeling planted and in control of your stride, this shoe provides that confidence-inspiring platform for daily training, walking and workouts.
Why You'll Love It
You’ll love the supportive and stable ride of the Cloudrunner 3 that makes every run more fun.

classic running shoe
I'm 83 years old and while I formerly ran marathons well into my 40's, I now take walks in the Rocky Mountains at about 8000 feet, and I've found them to be exactly what I wanted.
