The shoe at a glance.
The On Cloudsurfer 2 is a neutral daily road trainer with a comfortable upper and a smooth rolling transition for relaxed miles and recovery runs. Its plate-free construction makes it a straightforward option if you want that rolling feel without a performance plate. The ride is fairly firm and has limited bounce when you increase the pace, so faster sessions are not its strongest use. Fit is listed as regular and true to size, with a wide version available; check toe room if you sit between sizes.
