    Thanks for this review!! Cloudultra 2s are one of my all-time favorite running shoes. I run a combo of this terrain and pavement.

    Great review. I have version 1 and while I loved the responsive cushion once they broke in ~50k they are actually lethal on wet surfaces here in Ireland, completely unusable. Has the grip improved or are you just in the wrong place at the wrong time to test in the wet?

      Hey Brian, I’m in the right place at the right time 😜 but yes unfortunately no rain here for a while in California! As soon as the rain returns ill test them in the wet! But 50% more surface area is always going to help with traction.

    I'm enjoying the video.
    Is the size of Cloud Monster and Ultra 2 similar? Do I need to go with the same size? Or do I need an Ultrane size-up?
    Thank you.

      Hey 👋🏼 thank you! The cloudmonster 2 is a bit of a wider fit, but both are true to size. No need to size up for the cloudultra 2 👍🏼 -Alastair

      Can I ask you one more question?
      Will the cloud surfer 2 trail and ultra be similar in size? It's hard because it's an online order

    Literally just ordered the same ones you tested....correct me if Im mistaken but are you running without socks? They are that comfortable and stable with the sewn in sock? I have not been able to find them in stock anywhere so I ordered them and a pair of stratus since I already own stratus and they are comfortable for me. Im not a runner due to health but do spend alot of time on my feet and truly believe your reviews are very well done. I appreciate your thoroughness.

    I collect the more specialised ON Cloud shoes and I never used the Cloudultra v1 on the heavy trails rather I interchange this the Ultra with the Monster for daily use including driving my manual truck and urban exploration and air travel. I'm conflicted between these two even for urban use. For light hikes, I've brought both in addition to the Cloudventure Waterproof and I'll have to say Cloudultra is just a better all rounder. Cant wait for Ultra v2 in more White or wish they will have a Sensa edition.

    Knowledgeable and insightful video, thanks! Would the cloudultra 2 be a good “general/daily use” shoe? Looking for an ultra comfortable weekend shoe that’ll handle anything from walking trips, city use, to work around the house.

      I don’t see why not, I use mine for walking as well as trail running. The cloudsurfer 7 however is more cushioned and my be a better fit for your uses: www.trailandkale.com/gear/on-cloudsurfer-review/

    How responsive are these? Do they feel sluggish at all? (ON lists these as Max Cushioning) How do you think they'd behave on steep, technical uphills at fast speeds?

      @@trailandkale Purchased, and while they are good shoes with grip, however for mixed concrete and hiking use the grip looks like it is wearing down rather quickly (50 miles of use), and the forefoot cushion blew out pretty quickly, I've subsequently damaged my forefoot and have stopped wearing these while it heals.

    I have the cloudultra 1's and as much as i appreciate the cushioning and feel, the outside of my pinky toe rubs to the point where i've built a callus. Really starts to hurt on long runs. hoping this one doesn't have this issue.

      @Iamandthatiam On’s trail/road hybrid is the cloudsurfer trail which is highly cushioned and very dreamy to step into. Depending on Your weight you may feel like they lack stability however. The cloudultra 2 is a very durable supportive trail shoe that I also like to wear for walking on the pavement. If the trails you hike are dry and very light (not technical at all), then you could go for the Cloud X. Cloudsurfer trail review here: th-cam.com/video/-lx3tKBt4Xw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VpOnfmra-0jpIwZb
