On has unveiled a new training shoe with next-level cushioning technology, the Cloudsurfer, which is designed to help runners go the extra mile. The shoe is made with computer-optimized technology and total recycled content of about 30%, including approximately 85% recycled polyester. This eco-friendly shoe is priced at $160 and is ideal for all types of runners who are looking for a cushioned, responsive trainer and racing shoe. The Cloudsurfer is manufactured in Vietnam, and On is committed to supplier transparency. Its mission is to ignite the human spirit through movement, and this shoe is inspired by athletes and powered by Swiss engineering. It promotes a more efficient running style by encouraging a forward foot strike and a centered, energized running position.
The shoe has a breathable mesh upper with synthetic overlays that provide structural support where needed. Reflective hits boost visibility in low-lighting conditions, and the molded heel counter helps comfortably lock the foot in place. The Cloudsurfer has a speedboard that supplies enhanced flexibility, converting landing power into forward movement, and a high-grade EVA midsole for lasting performance. The CloudTec® cushioning technology is only active during the foot strike and becomes firm for an efficient toe-off. The CloudTec rubber outsole delivers lasting durability, while the honeycomb traction pattern provides a reliable grip.
In conclusion, the On Cloudsurfer is a cutting-edge training shoe that combines the injury protection of traditional running shoes with the natural ride of a lightweight shoe. Its eco-friendly and high-tech features make it an attractive option for runners of all levels. With the Cloudsurfer, runners can dream on and ride that sweet, plush, responsive wave to success.
