According to the Chinese zodiac, 2026 is the Year of the Horse — and brands are wasting no time releasing products that honor the vitality, freedom, speed and adventure that horse years are said to hold.

While some of those products border on cringe, On’s limited-edition collection embodies the symbology of the occasion with refreshing restraint.

The cornerstone of the special release is the Cloudmonster Void Year of the Horse, which effortlessly embodies the new year’s energy.

Designed for good luck

The limited-edition Year of the Horse Collection from On includes a fairly wide selection of apparel and accessories, along with three of the brand’s flagship footwear models.

The Cloudmonster Void’s rendition is the most wearable of the sneakers, thanks to subtle styling that evokes the traditional Chinese zodiac without overdoing it.

The max-cushioned icon features a sleek off-white upper, which is accented with pops of red and gold, including the rust-hued On logo and the jewel-toned outsole.

In Chinese culture, red symbolizes good luck and prosperity, and that color is continued throughout the shoe in via both the insole and a graphic sockliner.

There’s also a pretty low-profile gold Horse zodiac decoration printed on the insole.

Aside from its subtle-yet-impactful aesthetic update, the Cloudmonster Void retains its key comfort-boosting ingredients: proprietary Helion superfoam and maximal CloudTec cushioning, along with an engineered haptic mesh upper for increased breathability.

Availability and pricing

The Cloudmonster Void Year of the Horse, along with the rest of the collection, is available now via On’s official website, with the sneaker retailing for $180.
