Cult-classic footwear brand On was founded in the Swiss Alps on a couple of key principles: embracing next-gen tech, and doing so with the lowest possible carbon footprint. Since its founding in 2010, the running and athletic wear company has completely blown up, spotted on Emily Ratajkowski, Jennifer Lopez, Gisele Bündchen, longtime brand partner Zendaya and endless more famous faces.
And the Hollywood-coveted brand is no stranger to collaborations. On June 26, On and FKA Twigs dropped their first-ever lineup of co-designed apparel and sneakers, including the Cloud X FKA, the British singer-songwriter’s take on On’s signature Cloud trainers. Even more recently, Zendaya and her longstanding “Image Architect” Law Roach teamed up to create the Cloudzone Moon sneaker.
On Cloud X FKAThree colorways available.
On Cloudzone MoonSix colorways available.
The brand has also partnered with Roger Federer on a capsule of tennis and tennis-inspired shoes, and with luxury fashion house Loewe on multiple collections of bold and sporty kicks and apparel, with an assortment of sneakers and clothing still available to shop on on.com, mytheresa.com and loewe.com.
On Oct. 16, the duo’s most recent drop introduced the Cloudsolo, the first shoe entirely co-designed by Loewe and On. Available in nine colors, the limited-edition style is the first to feature a signature lace toggle inspired by the iconic Loewe pebble.
This is in addition to the brand-new Cloudtilt ($590), which was released in two denim-inspired colorways.
And, while it’s a newer brand in the scheme of footwear companies, It boasts an impressive inventory of road running, trail running, lifestyle, hiking and outdoor, tennis and training and gym shoes.
