The new lightweight, fully-cushioned training and racing shoe with Helion™

Running should be fun, not an exercise in self-control. Instead of correcting your movement, On lets you run how you were meant to run. On’s intelligent CloudTec® cushioning takes the first heavy blow off the street or trail and then lets you transition naturally to the forefoot, where the Cloud elements become firm for a stable and a powerful push-off. Cushioning, but only when you need it.

On shoes don’t control your running motion with a rigid sole. Instead, a whole team of cloud elements on the sole actively reacts to your individual running motion. They have no predefined rolling line – instead, the cloud elements cushion your landing by adapting to your foot strike. This puts you back in control, empowering each runner to run how he or she is meant to run. 

Your running shoe should not succumb to friction when landing; it should transform your motion into forward momentum. The flexibility of the cloud elements, combined with the CloudTec® speedboard, facilitates efficient energy transfer from landing to take-off. Plus, On shoes are built with the landing sweet spot towards the mid-foot stance, naturally centered under your body, so that upon landing you are immediately ready for takeoff – good running form in action.

Helion™ superfoam

Helion is foam cushioning that can do it all. Advanced manufacturing methods fuse stiffer foam elements with softer sections to deliver properties previously only possible in independent materials. Helion is light on weight but big on energy return, responsive yet protective. It’s also resistant to temperature changes for year-round high performance. Helion is more than just a foam. It’s a superfoam. Helion Your Run with the Cloudswift. 

Technology

Ready, Set, Flow

18 adaptive Cloud elements and Helion™ superfoam combine with the re-engineered Speedboard™ to turn impact into acceleration. The curved heel unit means better hold, durability and comfort. Strategic taping and a new lacing configuration offer sure-footed freedom and support for high-speed goals.

Materials

Lightweight comfort

The Swiss-engineered mesh upper is primed for race pace. Lightweight and reinforced to support tired feet, with zoned ventilation to let air flow through. An elastic strap keeps laces out of the way, and a new rubber compound in an advanced traction pattern offers superior grip on wet roads.
