Awesome work putting together such a comprehensive review! I just tried these shoes on today although it was one size up because that’s all they had at REI. For bodyweight exercises and light to moderately loaded accessories, the On Cloud X 3 works pretty well. The CloudTec midsole is stable enough for most of these training contexts and I enjoyed them in these settings.The shoe is great for middle to long distance runs. The fact the shoe is so lightweight it may not be the best fit for lifting weight in or doing more aggressive workouts like CrossFit in. The mid and outsole of the shoe is extremely lightweight and you literally feel like you are running on clouds Founded in 2010, On Running is still a relatively new brand in the world of sports but in just 11 years, the Swiss company has done a lot to stand out. While I think the On Cloud X 3 is a step in the right direction for this training shoe line, there are still a few cons to note about this model. You’re probably reading this thinking it’s very similar to the Cloud X , and you’d be right. It’s the same weight, style and feel, and offers the same stability and cushioning.

On Running Cloud X Shift Review | The Sports Edit

For example, when landing and exploding through the forefoot doing skater strides, I found that the midsole would give way and I’d lose out on my ability to create balance in these shoes. What really stands out, though, is the CloudTec sole. Made of a Zero-Gravity foam, this sole has been designed especially for explosive movement in all directions. This is made possible thanks to a unique foam construction that means the shoes can offer a good range of mobility while weight is kept to a minimum. Goods being returned in a condition other than Pristine and Brand New as sold may be subject to a diminished value fee if they are diminished as a result of your handling and use while in possession of goods. Another feature that’s contributing to this lightweight design is a knit-weave upper, which makes the entire shoe more breathable without affecting the level of cushioning throughout - especially on the outsole. This ensures the trainers feel comfortable and agile during runs, hops, skips and jumps - you name it. Meanwhile, a firm foam padding along the collar means they are able to handle all these high-impact moves and retain their shape. I’m curious how other foot anatomies will interpret this collar change. On top of this and to add to my sizing complaints, the upper still suffers from overlap when tightening the bottom laces — despite being reworked — and the laces run pretty long in this shoe.If you’re looking into this shoe for day-to-day wear, then I think you’ll enjoy this shoe. For my 2+ mile long dog walks, this shoe has been comfortable and I’ve enjoyed how breathable their upper construction is. On Cloud X 3 Vs On Cloud X If you have a narrow or neutral-width foot, then you should resonate with the fit of the On Cloud X 3 and this model has a bit more upper volume than the On Cloud X. It’s also nice that the Cloud X 3’s upper is built with 90-95% recycled materials.

i’m cloud x fan. fitting perfectly for me but i’d enjoy a bigger upper volume. the question is: is the fitting the same as cloud x excluding a wider volume? so is the shoe sole size, the same? Focus on spending more time training at your anaerobic threshold. A major mistake I see many runners making is running too many miles or kilometers per week too aerobically. Remember, you will be racing right around your AT or tempo effort. So, gradually extend the duration of your tempo runs and work to lengthen the distance of your tempo runs to equal double of your race distance. The material at the base of the midfoot can overlap if you’re lacing these shoes up a lot which can be annoying and take away from this model’s aesthetic. For lifting and strength training, the On Cloud X 3 will work, but it will definitely have its limitations in the gym. There are not my favorite gym shoes for training heavy and I’d look into other models if that’s one of your main training goals. The laces are also much nicer on this shoe than some of the former styles - other shoe iterations had laces that were very very long!

First, when it comes to strength training, you’ll definitely want to keep your workouts on the lighter side with the On Cloud X 3. For example, I started to notice this shoe’s stability take a hit when working up to 315 lbs deadlift in this shoe. In the context of daily wear, I also like the On Cloud X 3’s performance and overall comfort. One area of performance that I consistently like with On Shoes is their comfort for all-day wear and walking.
