The Cloudsurfer Trail, a product of the On brand, emerged in early 2024. This model represents a significant evolution in trail running footwear, marking the debut of CloudTec Phase® technology in On's trail shoe lineup. It is a direct descendant of the Cloudsurfer 7, the innovative road shoe, and aims to extend the brand's renowned cushioning to the demanding world of trail running.
This trail running shoe is engineered for moderate terrains, light trails, and easy trail runs, offering versatility as a road/trail hybrid option. Its design prioritizes a smooth stride with CloudTec Phase® technology and a shock-absorbing Helion™ superfoam. The Missiongrip™ rubber outsole, featuring a versatile lug pattern, provides stability on wet and dry surfaces, making it suitable for a variety of conditions, though not for highly technical terrains.
The Cloudsurfer Trail, as the trail counterpart to the Cloudsurfer 7, has quickly established itself as a pivotal piece in the performance running market. Its introduction of CloudTec Phase® technology showcases On's commitment to innovation in cushioning. The 'Aloe/Mineral' colorway, released on August 30, 2024, has been particularly embraced by trail runners for its blend of performance and style. The design, incorporating recycled materials, speaks to a broader trend of sustainability within athletic footwear.
The 'Aloe/Mineral' colorway of the Cloudsurfer Trail features a flexible, soft-mesh upper. This upper incorporates engineered mesh with breathable sections and functional embroidery, reducing the use of TPU plastic. The shoe's construction includes recycled polyester, contributing to approximately 31% total recycled content, and a Helion midsole foam for superior shock absorption and comfort. The Missiongrip™ rubber outsole provides reliable traction.
