Hello everyone,
I picked up a pair of these a few weeks ago to try them out. I've been using Reebok Running shoes and had a pair of Puma. The Cloud's are pretty different then anything I have used in the past. They have a strange bottom in these cloud squares that are supposed to help with your impact and push off. They also have strange laces which are called speed laces. You slip the shoe on and adjust the laces. Once you get them where you want you just tie a knot in one of the side or both and now they stay that way. Slide on and off from there.
Surprisingly they are fitting and snug. I never ever liked slip on style shoes as I always felt they where either to tight or loose. These damn things are pretty amazing.
If you run work out or just want a pretty bad **** pair of sneakers for everyday use you should check these things out. So far I'm really liking them.

I'm at the age that I should be wearing white NB's. The people I see with them are only running from the grim reaper.

FWIW....I bought a pair of Hokas about 4 years ago for running and will never wear a different shoe. Most comfortable shoes in the universe.

Pictured there are the Speed laces. They are some different kind of laces. They don't lace the entire shoes like regular laces do. They actually also come with regular laces if you don't like the speed laces.
Mine are all black.Dan

I tried the ON Cloud found them to be really comfortable. I just needed something with more support so I settled on NB N88v10.
And yes those speed laces are nice.
Those Hokas are nice shoes also.Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel…….Samuel Johnson

I feel owning all of them would be ideal then you don't have to settle on one.motorhead43026 wrote: »I tried the ON Cloud found them to be really comfortable. I just needed something with more support so I settled on NB N88v10.
