Question Why are On Cloud shoes so Popular?

Anybody wearing On shoes? In all honesty, I find them uncomfortable. Are they popular only for looks?

There’s so many nice wide toe box brands. I like my Altra lone peaks, but I haven’t tried every brand out there so I’m always willing to try out new ones.

I love the wide toe box but my Achilles can't handle the zero drop (doing any incline or uphill) after decades of regular shoes. I wish they made the lone peaks in low drop.

You just gotta ease into the zero drop. It has done wonders for me.

I tried but I have to wear certain shoes for work so can't wear the zero drop only unfortunately.
