On Women's Cloud 5 Waterproof Sneakers

Fab shoes for every day, light hiking, gardening.

Fantastic comfortable shoes. I’m 5’3” @ 195lbs. I’ll be testing them out this summer in Japan.

Bought these for a trip to Paris & London in October. It rained on some days and we did a lot of walking. Started to wear them about 3 weeks before and noted no real breaking in period needed. They looked good in Europe (not too sneaker like flashy) and my feet were dry the whole time. On days it didn’t rain, my feet didn’t feel too warm or such; felt like regular sneakers. At first I didn’t like them with the elastic shoe laces but went back to the shoe box and found the spare regular shoe laces in there. Perfect w the regular shoe laces for my liking. I’d not hesitate to repurchase these and would not give those other reviews that said their feet got wet as that wasn’t my experience.

I recently purchased these shoes, expecting them to be a comfortable addition to my wardrobe. Boy, was I wrong! From the moment I put them on, I experienced nothing but discomfort. The fit was all wrong despite being my usual size, causing painful blisters on my heels and squeezing my toes unmercifully.The arch support is practically non-existent, making long periods of standing or walking unbearable. The soles are hard as rocks, providing no cushioning whatsoever. After just an hour of wearing them, I felt like I was walking on concrete with every step.To make matters worse, the material is stiff and unforgiving, rubbing harshly against my skin. Even after attempting to break them in, the shoes remained as rigid and uncomfortable as ever. Regardless I tried them a bit longer to give them the benefit of the doubt. Big mistake, my feet are in so much pain.I've never regretted a purchase more. If you value your feet and comfort, steer clear of these shoes. They might look stylish, but they are an absolute nightmare to wear. Save your money and avoid the pain – these shoes are not worth it

I've been wearing On Cloud for 8 years. I have since bought my 4th pair of On Cloud in waterproof black. I get the best compliments from my customers on them! I'm a hairdresser and I can spill water on my shoes all day long. I can also finally walk in the rain without my toes getting wet while wearing my favorite shoes. The regular On Cloud has mesh material where my feet were always getting wet.My arches are very high. This is the only brand of shoe that I don't have to change the inner shoe pad to another brand of insert to support my arches. I wear them up to 14 hour days from work to dinner sometimes. I gave up wearing Merrill hiking shoes at work for these when I have had to walk miles at work.I added the blue and gray waterproof Cloud to my collection. They match well with my jeans. Please note that if you have not bought On in the last 5 years, the sizes have gone down on their shoes by half a size. I always wear a 6, but these last 4 pairs I've bought had to be 6.5 or my big toe fits tight in the front of the shoes. The sizing is European.Update: I bought the special blush pink Cloud 5 with gray soles (waterproof). I am beyond thrilled because I wear so much blush pink already. I always combine it with gray to create a more adult look to my outfits. I prefer these Clouds with the gray soles because I can generally get them dirtier without the dirt showing as quickly as the mesh blush and white Clouds.

These are so cute, since I bought the black pair they match just about everything which is ideal for a busy working mom. They're comfortable in all senses as I've done just about everything in them. I go for walks, runs, errands, wore them during pregnancy, wore them for work, for driving, for everything in between and I've never had feet issues since I've worn them. I got them initially due to having knee and feet issues while 6 months pregnant and someone recommended the brand to me. Ever since getting them I cannot stop raving about them. Eventually I'll get a second pair, but for now I'll wear these bad boys out!
