Cloudmonster pro’s (and some tradeoffs)
These super-buoyant runners are fantastic for long duration walks or runs. I have found myself not wanting to take them off. That said, there are a couple of things that you will want to know before buying them.
1) They run about a half size small, so make sure to try them on and get a good feeling for them.
2) Their heel incline is higher than most shoes and will work your mid-calves a little differently, so be prepared to “feel it”.
3) They are a little “squishy” and provide a feeling of a little more horizontal movement than more stiff runners.
In my case, the pros have caused me to wear the Cloudmonsters almost non-stop.

Do not last
Purchased these 8/24/2023 today is 11/07/2023, they did not last they lost their shape so bad and I feel are not worth the cost. The top of the shoe gave so much it it looks like they are old shoes not 2 months old

Amazing shoes!
After 2 years of knee issues, these shoes are allowing me to run again due to their amazing soles. These are pure magic so I recommend you buy them.

Most comfortable pair I own
These are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever purchased. Right out of the box comfort! I purchased a size 11.5, and they fit perfectly with enough room for my toes to move comfortably. The sole on these shoes is amazing. Plush, but not too soft. You will not regret buying these. In addition, they’re extremely light despite their bulky appearance.
