Q: Why are they extremely pricey compared to other running shoes? I don’t get it.

They are a great shoe and definitely worth the money. Do not buy them here. Buy them directly from the manufacturer On-running. They are $130 on their website. Check out the ‘on classic’ section you can get them even cheaper. They have a 30 day trial also. These shoes hug your feet, support them so well, and are comfortable out of the box. I can wear these for over 10 hours and I’m not dying to get my shoes off at the end of my day. I own 5 pairs I wear them all the time work and weekends.

Q: Are these shoes true to size?

No. I bought a pair several years ago size 7. Absolutely loved them. The new model is narrower so I had to size up to a 7 1/2 which I never wear. They are not as comfortable as the older design.

Q: My new pair has what looks like regular laces. What is the slip on lacing system?

You can do either. I like slip on I use these for gym training. Have the running style for running walking and they lace only.

Q: I usually wear an 8 or 8.5 depending on the shoe. Do these fit close to size?

My feet are technically 8.5 and I always wear 9 or 9.5 in a dress shoe. In the On Cloudflyers (Waterproof), I wear a 9.5, and it fits perfectly. It's a very snug feeling fit, but not too tight or short. In the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 19, I bought a 9.5W, which were way too long, so I went down to a 9W.
