Skimming through this thread so I can know who to ignore for the next fashion thread.

I wear a pair for running, but not a big fan of the look so I don’t wear them out

I prefer Ultraboosts if I’m wearing tennis shoes for style

On clouds are the worst shoes I’ve ever bought. Tore up in less than 2 months and weren’t even comfortable.. they were rigid and stiff.

Dudes just lie trying to justify overpaying for a pair of shitty tennis shoes. Brooks are 10x better.

Not really comparable for most people. Ons look better and are more convenient. I wouldn't run in them, the same as I wouldn't wear Brooks around town most of the time.

Yeah, I think there is a big distinction between comfy chill out shoes and more hardcore runners. It appears that On Cloud has taken over the soccer mom and dad set. The running nerds seem to be into Brooks, Saucony, and Altra. I can't tell with Hoka. They seem to be somewhere in between.

And you are concerned with what other people wear, why?

ON
Is a company that came out the gate with well made shoes and then when they got traction in sales, they sent manufacturing to China and quality went downhill but they still charge the same amount or even more

Typical bait and switch

I have like 8-10 pairs of On clouds. If anyone wants to buy a pair. I sell on ebay. Just hit me up and I'll cut you a discount.

How does anyone who wears On Clouds have time to post with all the pussy that must be thrown their way?

And when I say pussy I mean dicks from the other gays wearing them.

These go nice with jorts and Magellan fishing shirts. A mullet is icing on the cake.

I honestly have a hard time wrapping my head around how these are so popular.


I wondered the same thing (because they are fricking ugly) but I think I figured it out.
Tik Tokker wears them. Teenage girls buy them. Moms wanting to remain young and hip buy them. Force them on husbands for same reasons.

Every time I see a guy wearing them I think. WTF happened to you you spineless frick.

Nike Killshots FTW

I got a pair as a gift after my brother in law loved his so much he got me some. It was at least a year before I saw a woman wear them, so Im fairly certain your tik tok theory is off (although may be true now).

I'm on my third pair. They really are comfortable and you can slip them right on. The guy who compared to them to crocs may not be far off. And yea, there's a reason I'm on my third pair. They dont last for shite.

I have had the complete opposite experience. I’ve worn my almost every day for over a year and they are finally done.

I don’t love the way they look, but I can’t see myself not following up with the same pair.

It's one of the most common complaints about them if you're a runner. I guess if you don't use them for running maybe it's not an issue. But they are horrible running shoes because they wear down ridiculously fast.
