About On Cloud X

The versatile trainer from On

The Cloud X is one of the best-known models from Swiss brand On, built around the distinctive CloudTec cushioning. It’s a lightweight, versatile shoe that suits a workout as well as an easy run.

Clouds under the sole

CloudTec consists of individual cushioning pods — the “clouds” — in the outsole. On landing they absorb impact by compressing locally; at toe-off they work together with the stiff Speedboard in the midsole, which channels the forward motion. That produces the smooth, rolling transition On is known for.

Light and sleek

The Cloud X targets agility: a slim, breathable upper and a low profile keep the weight down. More a nimble all-rounder than a heavily cushioned long-distance shoe — exactly what makes it popular outside the gym as well.
