Company profile

On is a Swiss athletic shoe and performance sportswear company, operating as On Holding AG, that designs and markets running shoes and sports clothing. Its running shoes feature a patented cushioning system that activates during the landing, an idea that began in the Swiss Alps when retired athlete Olivier Bernhard glued pieces of garden hose to a prototype outsole before Caspar Coppetti and David Allemann joined him in 2010. Its scientists and technicians develop new products in the Zurich-based On Lab, and the United States is its biggest single market.
