The On Cloudsurfer Next is engineered to deliver a remarkably agile and dynamic running experience, making it a strong choice for your daily training regimen. The core of its performance lies in the CloudTec Phase® cushioning system, which, in conjunction with Helion foam, provides a unique domino-effect sensation. As your foot lands, the individual Cloud elements collapse in sequence, then spring back to propel you forward, creating an "effortless running sensation" and significant energy return.
This sensation is further enhanced by the pronounced forefoot rocker, which facilitates a smooth and powerful transition from mid-foot strike to toe-off, helping you maintain momentum. Whether you're embarking on an easy recovery jog or picking up the pace for a moderate tempo run, the Cloudsurfer Next adapts to provide both comfort and responsiveness.
The lightweight engineered woven upper ensures breathability, keeping your feet cool and comfortable even during longer runs or in warmer conditions. Its design, inspired by On's elite race shoes, doesn't just look good; it actively contributes to the shoe's overall agile feel. Furthermore, the updated rubber pad outsole is crucial for real-world reliability, providing high traction across varied road surfaces, including wet conditions, giving you confidence with every stride. With a 6mm heel drop and a moderate stack height, it supports a natural foot strike while offering ample cushioning.
Getting started with your On Cloudsurfer Next shoes is straightforward:
Lacing: Ensure a snug, comfortable fit without overtightening. Experiment with different lacing techniques if you experience pressure points.
Initial Wear: Wear them for short walks or light activities first to break them in and allow your feet to adapt to the cushioning and rocker geometry.
The Cloudsurfer Next is primarily designed for:
Road Running: Ideal for daily training, tempo runs, and longer efforts on asphalt, concrete, and paved paths.
Surface: Best suited for hard, even surfaces. While the outsole provides good grip, it's not intended for technical trail running.
Runner Type: Suitable for neutral runners. Its versatile cushioning and dynamic ride can benefit a wide range of runners looking for a responsive yet comfortable experience.
Proper care extends the life and performance of your shoes:
Cleaning:
After each run, gently brush off any loose dirt or debris with a soft brush or cloth.
For deeper cleaning, hand wash your shoes using mild soap (e.g., dish soap or laundry detergent) and cold water.
Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Do not machine wash or machine dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Drying:
Air dry your shoes naturally at room temperature.
Remove the insoles and allow them to dry separately to prevent odor and speed up drying.
Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers), as these can warp or damage the materials.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
