Is the Cloudboom Volt good for daily training?

It works best for tempo runs and races. The firm, thin cushioning makes it tiring for everyday easy miles.

How does it compare with the Nike Vaporfly?

The Volt is lighter and firmer with less stack height. The Vaporfly offers more cushioning and a softer, bouncier ride.

Does it fit true to size?

Runners generally take their usual On size. The thin upper fits snugly, so those between sizes may prefer the larger one.

Is it for neutral runners only?

Yes. It has no stability features and is built for neutral runners with efficient mechanics.

What is the Speedboard?

It is On's stiff plate inside the midsole that flexes and returns energy at toe-off for a faster feel.

Can heavier runners use it?

Lighter runners get the most from it. Heavier runners may want more cushioning and support than the Volt offers.

Our take on the Cloudboom Volt WMNS "Juniper Limelight"

The On Cloudboom Volt is On's lightweight road running shoe built for fast training and race day. It pairs a full-length Speedboard plate with a thick, responsive midsole for a snappy, propulsive ride. It suits runners who want a light, quick shoe for tempo work and shorter races rather than daily easy miles. Against rivals like the Nike Vaporfly or Adidas Adios Pro, it is lighter and firmer underfoot, with less cushioning for long distances.
