OnCloudmonster 2
Powered by dual-density Helion™ cushioning and a tuned Speedboard®, the Cloudmonster 2 delivers max-stack plushness with lively propulsion for daily miles and beyond. Soft, energetic, and road-ready, it’s the versatile monster built for runners who want both cushion and kick.

Details
The On Cloudmonster 2 returns with amplified cushioning and a more refined underfoot feel, offering a max-stack platform that’s equally ready for relaxed daily mileage and long-haul road sessions. Its redesigned dual-density Helion™ midsole pairs a firmer, more responsive layer for rebound and stability with a softer forefoot insert that improves landings and reduces impact strain across extended efforts. Centered between the two foams, the updated Speedboard® adds guided propulsion, delivering a smooth yet energetic forward roll without compromising softness.
A durable high-grip outsole enhances traction on varied road conditions, while the refreshed engineered mesh upperimproves breathability, lockdown, and midfoot support for a secure but adaptable fit. Cushioned, propulsive, and decidedly versatile, the Cloudmonster 2 preserves the unmistakable fun of the original while elevating efficiency and comfort for everything from uptempo miles to marathon build-ups.
