From neighborhood joggers to marathoners , runners of all skill levels and ambitions need a solid pair of running shoes to reach their potential. Many of On's running shoes are well-suited for daily runs , but you'll also find them on the feet of the fashionable in more casual places. They don't go on sale often, but right now, REI has a 25% discount on one of the brand's trending pavement pounders .
The On Cloudgo Road Running Shoes are on sale for just $112 right now, a sizable savings off the normal $150 price tag. They're a great example of what makes On running shoes so beloved—a lightweight and comfortable feel with a good amount of bounce. Over 60 REI reviewers have given these a five-star rating, including one veteran runner who called them "absolutely phenomenal." They're still available in sizes 8 to 13 in the Black/Glacier color, but we're betting that won't be the case for long.

The secret behind these shoes is the materials, all of which are high-quality and low-weight. There's the Helion foam that balances responsiveness and comfort, a tailored TPU Speedboard for soft landings and explosive liftoffs, and the eponymous CloudTech cushioning that's easy on muscles and joints. The styling is sporty without the noise that comes with many colorful models, so it's well-suited for fans of monochromatic looks and even those seeking comfort in business-casual offices.
One reviewer, who identified themself as a "well-conditioned, 65-year-old athlete with flat feet ," said that this shoe is an "innovative neutral, lightweight trainer with an amazing, comfortable, cushioned ride," even for those prone to plantar fasciitis. For "easy miles and daily training," they said, "I highly recommend this outstanding shoe."
Another reviewer on his second pair of On running shoes says they wear well but are also fantastic out of the box. "I have a pair of shoes from this brand that are over five years old, and they are so broken-in they fit like socks…but they are durable and comfortable and still hold up." This new pair, though obviously not quite so worn in, "looks good, wears well and you will feel like you are walking on air."
Some sizes of these On Cloudgo running shoes are already selling out, so there's no time to waste. They're good enough to buy for $150, so for $112, we'd say run—don't walk—to snag a pair of your own.
