The On Running Cloudswift 4 AD is engineered for a dynamic running experience, particularly well-suited for road running and daily training in urban environments. Its dual-density Helion superfoam midsole ensures comfortable impact absorption during landings, crucial for hard surfaces. The nylon-blend Speedboard then provides a responsive kick-off, propelling you forward efficiently. This combination makes the shoe ideal for both tempo runs where speed is a factor and longer, steady efforts where comfort is paramount. The rocker geometry encourages a fluid gait cycle, reducing effort and improving overall running economy. With its water-repellent finish, the Cloudswift 4 AD can handle unexpected light showers, making it a reliable choice for runners who don't let a little weather deter them. The updated cage construction in the upper provides consistent support, which is beneficial for maintaining form over various distances.
Setup: 1. Lacing: Ensure laces are snug but not overly tight. Use the updated cage construction to optimize midfoot lockdown. 2. Initial Wear: Wear for short walks or light runs initially to allow your feet to adapt to the unique rocker geometry and cushioning. Compatibility: * Running Type: Ideal for road running, daily training, and urban environments. Suitable for various distances from short sprints to longer runs. * Foot Type: Designed for a neutral gait. The midfoot lockdown aims for broad appeal. Care: * Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt.
