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.

Can't Go Back to Hard Soles Now
The soles provide a lot of cushion for my knees and hips. They breathe well and they fit well. The cushion area dose squeak after getting wet though. That's my only negative about them.

The BEST sneaker I’ve ever worn!
Absolutely love these sneakers. I do not run, jog or walk any great distance…but I do work retail and am on my feet for 5-6 hours a day, plus I have arthritis in my feet. My feet are sooo happy in the cloudrunner 2 that I ordered 2 new pair!

Comfortable shoes
These shoes run a bit big. I normally wear an 8 but had to exchange for a. 7.5. The heel still seems a bit big but overall, I like the shoes. The are very cushioned and good for my plantar fasciitis. Fleet Feet made purchase and exchange super easy and fast. Will order from them again!
