Have On shoes become for lack of a better word really dorky?

Walked by their store in Manhattan last week - there was a short line to get in. No, not a sale or special event, just too many people wanted to enter the store. The people in that line looked to be in their 30s and reasonably good looking.

Nurse here. Had a pair and yes they were lightweight, but not at all supportive and I hated them.

I think associating a sneaker brand with class is super cringy and low class.

I love my pair from two years ago but haven’t found another that I like

I love the Cloud 2.0 (bought my first pair in maybe 2017 or 2018?) so much I bought back up pairs and keep looking for that model. Have had luck on eBay and the On site, where they sometimes offer them even now.

I like one model of their hiking shoes, too, but none of the jumbo soled newer models.

I tried them initially because I like Roger Federer.

I purchase this type of shoe for function not fashion, and for me they weren't worth the hype. I prefer Asics.

My podiatrist told me to wear Hokas. I may look foolish, but walking without pain is worth it.

False, On is the brand. Cloud is the name of some of the models. E.g. On Cloudsurfer 2 is a specific pair.

I jog in them so I don't really care if they are cool or not. I only wear sneakers for running.
