I travel for work a lot and I often try to get some workout in at the hotels . I have found this shoe is the perfect shoe for my lifestyle ! It is so comfortable to wear all day long , site visit and site seeing and also performs well in a hotel gym or some light morning jog ! This shoes is more versatile than specific . Which is great cuz I have my training shoes at home for serious weight lifts .
Love your reviews. I was going to get them since they are light. Now I’ve changed my mind after watching your review. They actually remind me of Mizuno Wave Prophecy.
Before getting the x4 I did test the mizuno wave prophecy in the store, but this are much wider in the front and felt a bit more comfy for me so I got them. After breaking them in for a week now it's even more comfortable to wear all day.

Hi Jake, shoutout from Singapore! Been a fan of your reviews and you’ve helped me a ton with my training shoe choices without you knowing how much you’ve impacted the community in the best of ways. I would love to know how you would pit the CloudPulse against the Cloud X4 Thanks again and keep up this amazing work. Aspiring to be like you too! ❤
@@heirylilham3948 cloudpulse has a wider platform and is a little more bouncy, whereas the x4 will be plush but will have a more “stable” feeling comparatively speaking. Cloudpulse for hiit, x4 for lifting with cross training. Thank you so much for checking out the channel!
Wish you could’ve published this just a day earlier… I am traveling in a foreign country visiting family and need a pair of general training shoes. On is the only option I got in my local area that had a general training shoes I am looking for. I did not like the X3 so went for the X4. I like it but probably would have made a different decision after watching your video.
On still needs time to improve it’s shoes . These soles are obviously too soft. Last time you recommended Dropset3. I tried it and it’s really good . Thank you
Hi Jake - Looking for a HIIT training shoe mainly for class purposes but I also run a mile or two a day - Free Metcon 6 or ON Cloud X 4? Your videos are great, thanks!
Great Q - both can work great. If you want a flatter midfoot and a bit more stability, go Free Metcon 6. Cloud X 4's arch can be more pronounced and their lack of lateral support can be a turnoff if that's a big ask for you in classes.
@@thatfitfriendI have adidas 4d or whatever they are called been wearing it for about 6 months and they are pretty worn right now , just looking for an everyday wearer gym nothing too heavy
You’ll want to find something with a bit more density through the midsole and a flatter last in general. With your training, what does it normally look like?
Dear Jack! Is this shoe any good for plantar fasciitis? Lately I’ve been struggling with cross for trainers because of the hill pain. Do you’ve any recommendation? Keep your great job up! Btw I’ve wide and flat feet.

Thanks for the great review, stops my impulse purchase. Are there any lightweight alternatives you would recommend or x3/4 is good enough for gym running and machines? (I lift barefoot so the extra stability doesn’t really matter to me)
Even with my love of more padded training shoes, I've never been tempted to try On Coud shoes. To age myself in terminology, they seem kind of yuppie to me. 😂
I've been waiting for this! Really helpful before making my purchase
Awesome, stoked it's helped!
I am really enjoying the new edits, so good!

Awesome, love hearing that!!

@@gasb6708 🤌🤌 das it! Thank you for the updates
I’ll grab a pair of these for sure
I have a flat foot but really want some ON. Thanks for the heads up. I’ll stick with my ON Roger’s
If you have a dicks sporting goods or REI you could try them on in store without biting the bullet!
Not a fan of ON shoes… they seem more of a gimmick than anything. Just my opinion though… great review as always.
I'm with you - these have potential, but I think there are a few things that could be improved to make them way more well-rounded.

Yeah, they need to do a better job of differentiating trainers from running shoe midsoles, imo.
Ayy that’s sick, love that!

What’s the best shoe you would recommend for versatility ?
@@menolose123 what’s the training look like?
What do you currently wear?
@@thatfitfriendI have adidas 4d or whatever they are called been wearing it for about 6 months and they are pretty worn right now , just looking for an everyday wearer gym nothing too heavy
@@menolose123 if you wanna keep it with adidas, then I’d go with the RapidMove model. Cost efficient and good all-arounder
What’s the best for training when you need help with balance
You’ll want to find something with a bit more density through the midsole and a flatter last in general.
With your training, what does it normally look like?

Do you prefer these or the nike free metcon 6?
Nike Free Metcon 6 over these for sure! Sorry for the delay here, btw!
Do you think the on cloud x4 is better than the on cloud x3?
I do!
@@thatfitfriend I. Should probably change my order cause yesterday I ordered on cloud x3 from watching your review on the on cloud x3
Thanks for the great review, stops my impulse purchase. Are there any lightweight alternatives you would recommend or x3/4 is good enough for gym running and machines? (I lift barefoot so the extra stability doesn’t really matter to me)
They'll be good enough, imo. I also like the F Fly a lot and they size wider!
And thank you for checking out the video!
Is this shoe more comfortable (more cushioning) than the RAD One?
@@jasonhunt7494 yes, more plush for sure!
What is the difference between it and x cloud 3?
Mostly quality of life updates. X 4 has a better upper and the boot + tongue have more padding. The Speedboard is also a smidge for flexible!
Are cloud monster good hybrid workout shoes?
Eh, not really. Stink for lifting!
better than x3AD?
I think so!
