The On Running Cloud X 5 arrives in an all-black colourway built for versatile training and everyday running. This low-top trainer combines a fine perforated mesh across the toe box and vamp with reinforced synthetic overlay panels at the midfoot and heel, giving it the breathability needed for hard sessions alongside the structure required for lateral movement and stability.
The upper is finished with a smoother woven textile panel along the sides carrying stitched and embroidered logo detailing, while flat laces with a subtle reflective fleck thread through an asymmetric arrangement of fabric loops and eyelets for a secure, adjustable fit. A fabric pull-tab at the heel makes it easy to step into, and the contrast dark brown-black interior lining adds a smart finishing touch against the black exterior. Underneath, On Running's distinctive cutout segmented midsole pairs with a textured rubber outsole, a hallmark of the brand's CloudTec approach to cushioning and energy return.
With its understated all-black styling, this Cloud X 5 suits runners and gym-goers who want a trainer that performs equally well on the track, in a training session, or paired with casual everyday outfits. It's a strong pick for anyone after a multi-purpose trainer from a brand known for its distinctive cushioning technology, and the low-key colourway means it will work with practically any kit or casual wardrobe.
