Black And White Cloudtilt Sneakers Women
This lightweight women's sneaker features a breathable recycled polyester mesh upper, elastic lacing for easy on/off, a removable foam footbed, and a CloudTec Phase midsole with computer-engineered perforated foam for shock absorption and weight transfer. The non-skid rubber outsole provides traction, making it suitable for urban exploration and travel. User reviews note a soft, plush ride similar to the Adidas Ultraboost, but also mention that the cushioning may lose its initial softness after a few months and the shoes can squeak when wet.

Product Insights
The On Cloudtilt is a walking-first sneaker engineered with FEA-optimized pods that collapse in a domino sequence for a smooth heel-to-toe transition, achieving 58.1% energy return and 92/100 shock absorption, yet buyers report plushness diminishes after months and the sock-like upper causes sweaty feet in warm weather. At 229g per shoe, it packs easily and pairs with technical pants, denim, or shorts, but its elastic speed laces may feel tight on wide feet, replacements are not included, and the outsole squeaks when wet. A quiet-luxury design from the Loewe collaboration, using recycled polyester and dope-dyed materials, it positions itself as On's only purely lifestyle walking model for urban travel and athleisure.

The majority of comments highlight the exceptional initial comfort and soft ride, often comparing it favorably to Ultraboost. However, a significant number of users note that the cushioning degrades after a few months and that the shoes develop an annoying squeak in damp conditions.

Soft ride compared to Ultraboost and other sneakers
Well worth it imo. It’s a very soft ride if you’re into it. Kinda like Ultraboost. Softer than: New Balance 1906R, 880v6, 990v6. Nike Vomero 5, Lunar Roam. Asics GT-2160.

Cloudtilt vs Cloudmonster cushion density
Theyre max cushion like the monster but opposite end of the spectrum in terms of the density of the cushion they provide. Monster= energy return firm cushion. Tilt= soft spongy cushion

Wide foot adjustment with speed laces
I have wide feet (EE in NBs) and the Cloudtilts are quite tight in the midfoot especially with the speed laces. What I did is I untied the knots at the end of the laces and did not use the top eyelets so I can comfortably adjust the tightness. With that, the Cloudtilts now fit my wide feet very comfortably well... Going to get me another pair.

Walking comfort, durability and squeaking
They’re good for walking. How long they last depends on how often you wear them and how you deem something to be run down. I’ve had one for 6 months and can still wear them for a year or so in my books, just that they’re not as comfortable as it was in the last 3 months. They’ll also squeak if you get them wet. Not always guaranteed to squeak but they most likely will.
