On Running Canada: Best Places to Buy On Cloud, Cloudmonster & Cloudtilt
Introduction to On Running in Canada
Emerging from the Swiss Alps, On Running—often searched as On Cloud or On Cloud shoes—has redefined footwear with its innovative CloudTec® technology. Founded in 2010 by Ironman champion Olivier Bernhard alongside David Allemann and Caspar Coppetti, the brand began with prototypes using garden hose pieces to create unique cushioning: soft landings into hollow Cloud pods, followed by firm take-offs via a Speedboard® plate.[On.com About](https://www.on.com/en-ca/explore/about-on), [Wikipedia On](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_(company)). Today, On ships directly to Canada via on.com/en-ca with prices in CAD, but for that premium in-person experience, authorized retailers like Gallery Streetwear offer curated selections.
In Canada, popular models like the Cloud, Cloudmonster, and Cloudtilt cater to runners, walkers, and style enthusiasts. This guide explores these staples, their features, and top buying spots, with a focus on BC's Okanagan region.
The Iconic On Cloud: Everyday Versatility
The On Cloud is On Running's signature all-day shoe, blending timeless aesthetics with CloudTec® comfort. The latest Cloud 6 ($180 CAD) features Helion™ superfoam for energy return and a breathable knit upper.[On Cloud](https://www.on.com/en-ca/shop/shoes/cloud). Perfect for commuting, casual wear, or light runs, it weighs around 250g with a 6-8mm drop.
Styling tip: Pair the Cloud with Gramicci trousers or Polar Skate Co tees from our Gramicci collection for an elevated street look, or layer with headwear for Okanagan adventures.
Cloudmonster: Max Cushion for Long Hauls
For those craving monstrous cushioning, the Cloudmonster series delivers. The Cloudmonster 3 ($240 CAD) boasts a 38-40mm heel stack, 6mm drop, and ~295g weight (men's US9). Triple-layer CloudTec® pods, Helion™ foam, and an aggressive rocker propel you forward—ideal for daily training, long runs, or recovery.[RunRepeat Cloudmonster 3](https://runrepeat.com/on-cloudmonster-3), [On Cloudmonster](https://www.on.com/en-ca/shop/shoes/cloudmonster). Reviews praise its stability and firm-yet-protective ride on pavement, though it's less bouncy than competitors.[Canadian Running Mag](https://runningmagazine.ca/sections/gear/shoe-review-on-cloudmonster/)
