Hoka Mach 6 and On Cloudmonster 2 are both daily trainers that happen to be fast, but they deliver speed through completely different experiences. The Mach 6 is featherweight โ it is so light that some runners use it for racing, which tells you everything about how Hoka optimized this shoe. The PROFLY+ foam gives you soft landings and snappy toe-offs, and the low weight means your legs are fresher at the end of long runs. The Cloudmonster 2 is heavier but makes up for it with personality. Those chunky CloudTec pods create a ride that is bouncy, playful, and unlike anything else on the road. It looks like something from a sci-fi movie and rides like a trampoline. The Mach 6 disappears on your foot and lets your legs do the work. The Cloudmonster makes its presence known with every stride. Runners who prioritize performance pick the Mach. Runners who want performance and personality pick the Cloudmonster.
