Versatile Road-to-Trail Performance

The On Cloudsurfer Trail is a hybrid shoe designed for both road and light trail running. It features On's CloudTec Phase technology, which provides a smooth ride with a moderate level of cushioning. The shoe's Helion superfoam midsole enhances comfort and responsiveness, making it suitable for daily training and recovery runs on smooth surfaces.

Enhanced Traction & Stability

The Cloudsurfer Trail includes a Missiongrip rubber outsole with multidirectional lugs, offering reliable traction on both wet and dry surfaces. However, the lugs are relatively shallow, making the shoe more suitable for well-groomed trails rather than technical or rocky terrains. The shoe's design provides a stable ride, though it may not be ideal for runners seeking maximum support on uneven ground.

Comfort & Versatility

The Cloudsurfer Trail features an engineered mesh upper that provides breathability and a comfortable fit. It is versatile enough for both road and trail use, though it excels on smoother surfaces. The shoe's lightweight design and cushioning make it perfect for runners who prefer a soft, responsive ride during casual outings or training sessions. However, it may not be the best choice for long-distance trail running or highly technical terrain due to its limited traction and support.
