On Cloudeclipse review: what runners say
Fit
True to size with a wide toebox; overall volume is generous and some runners with narrow feet report excess room and difficulty locking down the foot with the laces. The tongue, stitched down on both sides, reduces sliding.
Feel
High, protective cushioning without excessive sink: the CloudTec Phase compresses and rebounds in a mechanical way, with a pronounced rocker that guides the transition. The Helion foam stiffens noticeably below 41 °F.
Durability
Outsole rubber coverage is more extensive than previous On models; wear concentrated on the outer heel. At 100 miles the midsole holds up with no obvious structural breakdown, but some runners report fast outsole wear at the heel.
Best for
Daily training and recovery shoe for neutral runners up to approximately 175 lbs. Suited to easy, long, and moderate paces; not recommended for quality sessions, fast work, or racing.
Weak points
The asymmetric heel and the speedboard stiffness against the midfoot produce a noise during the stride. The upper dye tends to bleed onto white laces when the shoe gets wet.
