Anyone else love the running shoe brand On? They are EVERYWHERE now but we saw them randomly like four years ago and have loved them since. I have (too many) pair right now but they're so comfortable and like their look. I am going to Italy/Greece in a few weeks and will be spending many hours every day walking/on my feet and my feet tend to tire and get sore very easily.

I went to a company that helps find the right inserts for long days on your feet and they showed me On's newest shoe, Cloud Monster and holy ****. They are so light and it sounds stupid but it doesn't even feel like you are walking on a hard surface when you have them on.

My niece worked for Ons for a hot minute before getting a job at the swoosh.
I was in Europe this summer, and those shoes were everywhere. it was incredible.
On's also has put together a pretty impressive running team out of Boulder with Dathan Ritzenheim as coach. Joe Klecker runs for them and competed at the Worlds in the 10K

I have a friend with a bad back that swears by these shoes. I've never gotten any because I'm too cheap.

Better than my Brooks Ghost 13's? I walk a ton with a toddler and they are very comfy.

By far the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I actually returned the 14's as they weren't as comfortable as the 13, IMO

Brooks Ghost is my current workout shoe (boxing, jogging etc,) and I love them. I’m 220lbs and very particular with my footwear.

Love them.

I run with Hoka. Had some pretty bad Plantar F going on and and switching to Hokas really helped a lot so I stick with those. They look goofy as hell but I'm too old to care how I look when I go running now. It gets pretty tough to switch running shoes when you find something that works.

I was a faithful ASICS runner until I took a chance on a pair of On cloud stratus’s . The best running shoe or even everyday shoe I have ever had. Albeit pricey, they are worth every penny imo

These sons a ******* are heavy as hell, but they do absorb a tremendous amount of impact. It was on That's Incredible for gawds sake.

Echo the Brooks love.

My only issue is how they don't keep one model the same and I have to spend more time getting fitted etc.

Agreed. And they last years. I got a pair of stataus four years ago and they were my only casual shoe and just tossed them recently. I was down to the newest version of On Cloud Stratus vs On Cloud Ultra and then they told me to try the Cloud Monster and it was a no brainer.
 
The only gripe I had with mine were that they went from extremely comfortable one night to hurting so bad I couldn't finish my run the next night.

It was after I had they for quite awhile, so it was obviously time for new kicks, but it felt like the shoes had a warranty that expired one night. I've never had another pair of running shoes do that. I normally retire then to yard shoes, but I couldn't even wear them for a short length of time. Really bizarre.

I'll still probably get another pair when it's time to replace my Brooks, though. Great shoes.
