People who claim that this shoe is soft and comfy are objectively wrong, and probably haven't ever tried a shoe with soft cushioning. Here is a google spreadsheet [google.com] of RunRepeat's midsole softness measurements. Lower is softer. As you can see, the softest On shoe is below the median softness, and On literally has the most firm measured running shoe on record. I know this particular style isn't exactly on the spreadsheet, but when everyone says the cloudmonster is On's softest midsole to date, that's not promising.
Additionally, the runningshoegeeks subreddit pretty much universally pans the On brand for running. Just go there and search the term "cloud". Some indifference around the cloudmonster and universally terrible reviews for every other on shoe
If you're on your feet all day, you can just fall for the medical community's hype around Hokas. Personally, I like brands that don't rely 100% on marketing and actually put out a good product. Brands like Saucony, New Balance, and Asics have some of the best tech in 2022, but they're certainly not your tech bro shoes of choice.
Recommendations: Check out Saucony Triumph 19/20, New Balance Fresh Foam More v3/v4, Asics Novablast 2/3 instead.

People who claim that this shoe is soft and comfy are objectively wrong, and probably haven't ever tried a shoe with soft cushioning. .
However, you are correct that On shoes are generally not a soft shoe, which is exactly why I love my Cloudflows and Cloudmonsters. It's unfortunate that On uses the "cloud" moniker, because every model I've worn has a definite "road feel," rather than a "running on clouds" feel. No one who runs in ON would suggest they are soft shoes. They are responsive shoes.

On is very popular as an athleisure shoe and can be found on the feet of countless soccer mom's and dad's.
They have a reputation for being well made, but unless you get them on discount or just don't care about the cost and just want the look, you can get much better shoes for less money.
They look pretty cool though..

Never said these were tennis shoes. Again, read what was written and then respond.
These are running shoes that RUNNERS wear. Some prefer it some don't - like anything else it is a choice. I love them and I am a runner. Federe used to wear ON for running and the company approached him and Federer became an investor in them and then he decided to help create a Tennis brand with them. Tennis is a very new category for them.
ON is traded on the exchanges so look at their IR site and they will tell you all you need to know about their strategies and their approach to market.
Now where is that darn Block a Moron button on this thing??
