I would walk 500 miles (and I would walk 500 more) in the On Cloud 5 sneaker — and it just hit its lowest price after Prime Day!
Amazon Prime Day is over, but deals are still available on a range of products, including the hugely popular On sneaker range. Right now, you can grab the On Cloud 5 sneaker for $117 at Amazon on selected colors and sizes for a limited time until stocks sell out — that's almost $100 off and the lowest price, even after Prime Day! Remember, the deal varies depending on size and color. Check out the options below to shop. The On Cloud 5 is versatile enough for everyday wear, and looks pretty darn good, too. I'd happily walk the miles in these sneakers, and customers highly rate them for being lightweight, high quality and perfect for long periods of wear. Men's are on sale, too! As a range, On is seriously taking off. I've noticed that many of my clients and others at my classes are opting for these sneakers over the likes of Adidas and Nike these days. And as we are all aware, the cost of living is hardly affordable right now, so any money we can save on our favorite sneakers is a bargain. You'll need to check the sizes and colors for the On Cloud 5, but the payoff could be worth it for a little post-Prime Day discount. The On Cloud 5 is rated as an everyday sneaker, and some happy customers have said it's perfect for long hours of walking or standing, due to its lightweight design and super cushioned collar. I even read that someone transitioned from Brooks to On, which is a huge testament to the shoe's quality. I really love the On design; it's stripped back, and the color palette is simple and understated, making the shoe look stylish and versatile. On includes a removable insole and a patented CloudTec sole with a 7mm heel drop. Zero-Gravity foam provides plenty of cushioning, and the molded heel gives you immediate comfort with zero break-in required. A little touch I like is the speed lacing system, which basically means you can forget tying knots as you're ready to go. On do provide classic laces in the box if you prefer them too. I strongly recommend shopping before this shoe disappears.

Forget Prime Day — these are the 9 best On running deals I'd actually spend my money on
Prime Day week is still going strong, but when it comes to On running gear, I haven't seen many great deals on Amazon. The good news is that the On website is where things are really popping off right now. If you're a fan of On's comfy shoes and sleek performance apparel, it's worth checking out these discounts while they last. For example, the popular On Cloudmonster Hyper is a great cushioned daily trainer with that unique On flair to its look, and it's 20% off right now, down from $220 to $175. And if you want sun protection and style for your summer runs, the Performance Cap is 25% off right now, down to $44 from $60. If you want a running sock that stays comfy mile after mile, this one's a good pick while it's on sale. It's super lightweight with breathable mesh to keep your feet cool, plus padded arch support for extra comfort. The ankle height helps prevent rubbing, too. It's down to $16 from $28, so you're saving $12 on a sock you'll reach for again and again. A good running cap makes a big difference on sunny days, and this one's built for it. It's super light, breathable, and has an internal sweatband to catch drips. The fit is designed to adjust easily, the brim gives you shade, and the reflective details help in low light. I've tested this Performance Flex Bra myself and can vouch that it really does feel premium. It's designed for running and high-intensity workouts, with adjustable straps that actually stay put and no fiddly fastenings or underwires to dig in. The sweat-wicking fabric keeps you cool, and the fit is secure with a high neckline for extra coverage. The On Cloudrunner cushions each step to ease the impact on your joints. It's lightweight and breathable, so your feet stay comfortable even on longer runs. The wider sole helps with stability, and extra padding around the ankle stops rubbing. Save $45 on a pair while you can! The On Cloudsurfer Trail is comfy and cushioned, perfect for moderate trails. It's light, breathable, and has a grippy sole that works well on wet or dry ground. Plus, the sole is designed to stop stones from getting stuck while you run. The On Cloudmonster offers max cushioning with a lively, springy feel that makes running easier on your legs. I trained and ran my first marathon in these, and the extra bounce really helped on long miles. It's comfy, supportive, and built to last. The Core Jacket is perfect for those unpredictable days when you want to be ready for anything. It's lightweight and breathable so you won't overheat on your run, but the adjustable drawstring helps keep out wind or rain. When the sun comes out, just pack it into its front pocket and stash it in your bag. The Cloudmonster 2 builds on the original with even more cushioning and energy to power your runs. The extra-soft foam cushions impact while the nylon Speedboard helps you push forward with more momentum. If you want a shoe that feels lively but also protects your legs, this one delivers both. If you're chasing a race-day personal best, the Cloudboom Echo 3 is built for it. It's light, with a carbon plate and responsive foam that gives you a fast, snappy feel underfoot. The breathable upper keeps things cool, and the added cushioning helps you push through those final miles.

Tennis giant and philanthropist Roger Federer now a dollar billionaire
Perhaps his most strategic move was his early investment in On, a Swiss performance sneaker company. When On went public in 2021 Federer's stake helped catapult him into billionaire status almost overnight. Beyond the courts and boardrooms, Federer proudly embraces his South African roots. His mother, Lynette Federer, was born in Kempton Park, Gauteng, and was a star athlete in track and field, netball and field hockey. Federer holds dual Swiss-South African citizenship and has spoken often of his emotional connection to the country. His philanthropic efforts also reflect that bond. Through the Roger Federer Foundation, he supports early childhood education in six African nations — South Africa, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Botswana — reaching more than 2-million children to date.

How On creates its spray-on running shoes
Can running shoes be made by a spray gun? That's the idea behind LightSpray, a new manufacturing technique created by Swiss sneaker company On. "It allows us to produce an upper material in a completely automated way," said Marc Maurer, On's former co-CEO who recently left the company. "A traditional product is touched by approximately 200 hands, which is very different here." The upper part of the shoe is formed as a robot sprays a synthetic material called polymer onto a rotating foot-shaped mold. The process takes about three minutes per shoe. The final product doesn't have seams or laces and fits like a sock. "What we want to be able to do is to bring it from a couple of thousand pairs to millions of pairs," said Maurer. The company announced this month that it is opening its first LightSpray factory in Zurich featuring four of the robots. Analysts said innovations like LightSpray have given On a competitive edge. So how does it work? Watch the video to learn more.
