The latest best new price is $189.95 at Backcountry.com as of November 3, 2026, with 4 stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is the Cloudultra 3 worth $189.95?
If you run long trail distances and want maximum cushioning plus reliable grip, yes. At $189.95 at Backcountry.com as of November 3, 2026, it sits near the top of its recent range, so waiting for a markdown is reasonable if you are not in a hurry.
How does it compare with the Cloudultra 2?
The Cloudultra 3 keeps the double CloudTec and Helion setup but refines the upper and fit. It remains a max-cushion ultra shoe rather than a fast, light racer.
What is FlipRelease?
It is a small clip on the lacing that lets you loosen or tighten the shoe quickly mid-run. It is useful when feet swell over long distances.
Does it fit true to size?
Most runners take their usual On size, but the midfoot runs somewhat narrow. If you have wide feet or plan thick socks for cold trails, consider going up a half size.
Can I use it on roads?
It works for short stretches to and from the trail, but the Missiongrip lugs wear quickly on pavement. It is a trail shoe first.
What is in the box?
One pair of Cloudultra 3 shoes in Rock/White. Laces come fitted with the FlipRelease clip; no extra insoles or accessories are included.
