Cloudmonster 2

Verdict

The On Cloudmonster 2 is a high-performing option in its class — a max cushion scoring 89/100 in SoleHunt's data-driven evaluation, drawing on 0 consumer reviews and 0 independent expert tests. Tipping the scales at 278g, it is standard weight for a max cushion. The 38mm heel stack — a generous stack — delivers a plush and deeply cushioned ride at 22 HC, returning 70% of impact energy and feeling exceptionally bouncy underfoot. Geometrically, the Cloudmonster 2 runs on a mid 8mm drop that works with most running gaits, with a 30mm forefoot stack that maintains the traditional heel-elevated geometry runners with tight calves often prefer. Fit-wise, the toebox measures 96mm — roomy, with space for wider feet and swelling on long runs — and the upper comes in a standard width. True to size. Surprisingly roomy for an On shoe. The removable insole makes it compatible with custom orthotics. It is designed for long runs, recovery, max cushion, everyday training, and performs less well for wide feet or racing.
