On Running Cloud is not just a shoe; it’s a revolution in running technology. Founded in 2010 by Olivier Bernhard, a former world champion duathlete, alongside his friends David Allemann and Caspar Coppetti, the brand was born out of a desire to create a running shoe that could provide a unique experience—combining comfort, performance, and innovation.
The name "Cloud" is derived from the groundbreaking CloudTec® cushioning system, which features cloud-like pods on the sole of the shoe. These pods compress upon impact, providing a soft landing, and then lock to offer a firm takeoff. This technology not only enhances running efficiency but also reduces the risk of injury, making it a favorite among both amateur runners and professional athletes.
From its humble beginnings in Zurich, Switzerland, On Running Cloud has grown into a global phenomenon. The brand has consistently pushed the boundaries of running footwear, introducing features like Zero-Gravity foam and Helion™ superfoam to ensure lightweight yet durable shoes. Their commitment to innovation has earned them numerous accolades and a loyal customer base.
What sets On Running Cloud apart is its unwavering focus on the runner’s needs. Every product is designed with input from athletes, ensuring that the shoes perform exceptionally in real-world conditions. Whether you’re a marathoner or a casual jogger, there’s a Cloud shoe tailored for you.
Today, On Running Cloud is more than just a brand—it's a movement. With sustainability at its core, the company is dedicated to reducing its environmental footprint. From using recycled materials to developing eco-friendly packaging, On Running Cloud is leading the charge toward a greener future.
