Name: On | Men's Cloudsurfer Running Shoes - Iron/Glacier
SKU: 244373

Advice for Road Runners: The On Men's Cloudsurfer Running Shoes provide ultra-soft cushioning. One of the main benefits of these neutral road running shoes is the ability of the midsole to help improve the smoothness of the heel-to-toe transition.

Underfoot Feel

The midsole - with its soft cushioning - should deliver a very smooth ride. This is down to how the midsole was developed. On used Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate how each component of their prototype would react during running. The insights resulted in the optimal midsole for seamless weight transfer through the gait cycle. The cushioning is called CloudTec Phase®.

With CloudTec Phase®, the computer-optimised Clouds in the midsole seamlessly collapse like dominoes when your foot lands. The outcome should be a smooth heel to toe transition - which should be very comfortable.

As the On Cloudsurfer Running Shoes don't feature a Speedboard, they feel very soft and forgiving. If you're looking for maximum step-in comfort, these won't disappoint.

Upper Fit

The On Cloudsurfer's upper feels light, breathable and very comfortable. In our experience, it has an accommodating toe box. By this, we mean it suits a broader foot shape.

While not directly relevant to the fit, the upper is coloured using a dope dyeing process that requires 90% less water than standard techniques.

You will not find any plastic overlays on the upper's mesh.

Ideal Run Type

In our opinion, the On Men's Cloudsurfer Running Shoes are perfect for slow paced runs and easy miles. That's because the CloudTec Phase cushioning feels ultra-soft and incredibly smooth underfoot. The protective midsole should also work well for longer distances.

While the midsole will cope with some brisker efforts, the cushioning isn't overly responsive. For this reason, we wouldn't suggest using the Cloudsurfer for faster paced runs.
