Details & care

Runner-tech comfort meets street-ready attitude in a sneaker that sets layers of targeted mesh atop a fusion of performance cushioning technologies.

Perfect for: Active people looking for sporty style and technical cushioning in an everyday, easy-wearing sneaker.

Upper: Engineered mesh and a generously padded heel look great as they comfortably hug your foot. An inner sock and streamlined lacing system provide easy-on/stay-put convenience to get you going with your day.

Midsole Drop: 14mm. Classified as a high-drop measurement, it allows for more cushioning to absorb the impact of heel strikes.

Lower: Cushy CloudTec® construction absorbs the impact of every step, while an embedded Speedboard™ propels you forward. Rubber reinforcements in the tread support the natural rolling motion of your stride for a comfortable, easy ride.

  • Cushioning: absorbs impact and distributes weight for consistent, buoyant comfort under each step
  • Lace-up style
  • Speedboard construction moves naturally with your foot to transform every heel strike into an explosive toe-off
  • CloudTec sole provides a smooth ride that moves naturally with each stride
  • Removable, cushioned insole
  • Synthetic and textile upper/ textile lining/rubber sole
  • Imported
  • Item #6165338
  • Core Product ID 333335X8FJ

Awesome!

I’ve owned other ON runners before but wanted to try something new and I was not let down! The Cloudnova are super stylish, bouncy and comfortable! I may need to get another colorway soon. I really enjoy the look of them, and they go well with pretty much anything. They also have some height to them which is a nice perk to us short people. The laces are not long either and tie at the perfect length. All in all, I’m very impressed! I’m always a 9 and got a 9 and they fit great. I do not have wide or bigger feet.

Terrible

Worst shoe I’ve bought in years. Interior lining started to fray and tear after 2-3 months of use with light usage (10- 15 miles per week walking only). Exterior fabric is a magnet for dirt, dust, and pollen. Shoelaces do not remain tied.

Great looking, Not as comfy as expected

I own a pair a Cloudswift that are much more comfortable than the Novas. There is something that bothers my right foot on the left side, right below the ankle where the ankle support linner meets with the other part. It Stinges.

I think my Pops likes them

My dad has foot problems and they told him to get some Hoka so popped in to buy some for him and the salesperson said these are "hot right now so cop these"...well something like that. Gave them to my Pops and Christmas and so far he likes them. Been doing lots of walking and no complaints yet.

Love the look but not as comfortable as Cloud 5s

Love the hi-top look. Wanted to buy these but tried these in store and Im glad I did - there is such a noticeable drop that I felt I was wearing a men's hi-heel shoe wrapped in an ON sneaker. I did not buy these and even if these were on sale, I would probably get a different style since the comfort was nowhere near the On Cloud 5 shoes. Sizing is fairly true to the sticker.
