On Cloudboom Strike 2
The second generation of On's carbon-plated marathon racer, keeping the tall Helion HF PEBA stack and aggressive rocker of the original. Expect small refinements to the upper and geometry rather than a rework. Still a snug-fitting shoe aimed at efficient racers.
Reach for the On Cloudboom Strike 2 for race day and tempo days and intervals. It's a neutral shoe, best for runners with an efficient stride who don't need pronation support. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
