The On Cloud 5, a descendant of the original On Cloud, first emerged in 2014, immediately establishing itself as a pioneer in the realm of lightweight, fully cushioned running footwear, and has since evolved. The Cloud 5 'Hay Frost' colorway is the latest iteration of this design. It is a testament to the brand's commitment to innovation and performance, building upon the legacy of its predecessors.
Primarily designed for casual wear, daily routines, travel, and light workouts, the Cloud 5 'Hay Frost' is versatile. The shoe is not intended for serious running or intense training regimens. The inclusion of both speed laces and traditional laces caters to individual preferences. The design prioritizes comfort, breathability, and ease of wear, making it a suitable choice for various lifestyle activities.
The On Cloud series, from which the Cloud 5 'Hay Frost' is derived, has left a significant mark on contemporary fashion and athletic wear. Mexican cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki's choice to wear the original On Cloud on the cover of Vanity Fair in 2016, is evidence of its crossover appeal. The brand's partnership with tennis icon Roger Federer further solidifies its position within the elite sporting world. The Cloud 5, and its variants, have resonated with athleisure enthusiasts, urban explorers, and fashion-conscious individuals alike.
The 'Hay Frost' variant features a breathable engineered mesh upper, reinforced with strategic taping for enhanced durability and support, and a single smooth layer, and a molded heel design. The materials include a significant proportion of recycled components, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability. CloudTec® cushioning, coupled with the Speedboard®, is engineered to provide superior comfort and energy return, with the Speed-lacing system ensuring a snug and secure fit.
