On - Cloud 5 Waterproof

I have Flintstone feet and swear by my On Cloud 5s.

Okay well style is an incredibly personal thing, as is fitting shoes to your specific foot. On shoes in general but the Cloud 6 in particular look really dumb to me. I tried a pair of On for road running and hated both the aesthetics and the fit, but the feel underfoot was actually decent. I prefer a trail runner for travel (and trail running/hiking) but then again my aesthetic is more towards hiker/outdoor/not quite gorpcore. The only reasonable advice you need is to go to a proper running store and try on every single show that appeals to you. There are literally dozens of brands that are all making quality shoes these days, Nike and Adidas, Saucony, Asics, Salomon, Altra, Hoka, Brooks, New Balance, On even, etc etc etc. Get help from trained staff in finding the best fitting and feeling shoe that suits your style, tell them you plan to wear it for a long time with plenty of time on feet and some 10km runs thrown in. Brooks Ghost/Ghost Max comes in good cushion and black, norda 001/002/003 come in stealth black models for trail running, Nike does plenty of nice shoes in black colourways.

On clouds got some nice ones. I use cloud x 5. Its lower solid and slightly wider base.

Neither because I’ve tried both for running and they don’t work well for me. You need to go to a store and try stuff out.

On Cloud! It’s the only show that works for me. I also have a wide midfoot. Hoka’s run too narrow.

they have gotten expensive apparently... I have a few pairs of On running Cloud.. Ran a few marathons in them... Best shoes I have had

I'm currently running with On Clouds. My feet often get wet during nearly every run, so I'm now exploring waterproof Hoka shoes. I haven't tried Hoka before, but if anyone has experience with the Transport or GTX models, I’d appreciate their insights.

Which endorphin speeds are the best to buy? I just ran my first half marathon recently I run about 2:20 and I run daily in on clouds but I just feel like after running in them for a few weeks they slreasy start to feel worn. I want a good race day shoe since as I’m getting better I want to improve. I saw the 4s and 5s but for some reason they show the 4 to be more expensive. What do u recommend?

I try to buy my shoes from REI whenever possible. You can return them up to a year, even worn, if you're a member. It's well worth it to be able to actually do some runs in them before making the call. They resell the used returns in store at a discount. If I am buying from my local running store, I try to test them on a treadmill, even though I loathe treadmill running. So far, the only shoes in my collection that I don't like are the on clouds I bought online without being able to test them.
