The On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoes are very comfortable and high-quality. They are made from top-quality materials. They are designed mostly for low-intensity and long runs. The “Max” in the name refers to the high midsole, which is 5 mm higher than the midsole of the Cloudsurfer 2 running shoe. However, the 37 mm midsole is not considered high in its category. Maybe that’s why the shoe doesn’t look as exciting. It may be a good choice for runners who prefer running shoes with a harder-than-average midsole but want high comfort and quality. It’s also great for walking and can be worn all day, which is made easier by the fact that the shoe looks really good, just like we’ve come to expect from On running shoes.

On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoes

Description

On Running Cloudsurfer Max upper

On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoes upperThe On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoe upper is both attractive and comfortable. As we have come to expect from On, the upper is made from premium materials and assembled with Swiss precision. The shoes are not as breathable as they could be, but they are comfortable and perfect for cold weather, just like previous Cloudsurfer running shoes. Although it looks like there are large ventilation holes in the upper part, these are actually closed on the inside. The tongue of the shoe is made of the same comfortable, flexible material that is pleasant to the touch. The tongue is thinly padded, but it does its job and protects well against the tightness of the laces. The way the shoe is laced is unusual. A cord runs through the lace holes, and the shoelaces are tied around this cord. This solution makes shoelaces tighter and more flexible. The ends of the cord are on the side of the upper part, which seems like a good solution, but if you have wider feet, they may rub. The upper part fits well and is slightly wider than average. The inner sole isn’t glued into the shoe, so it can be easily replaced.

On Running Cloudsurfer Max midsole

On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoe midsoleThe On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoe midsole is made from Helion foam, which is often used in On running shoes. This foam is harder than average. This is a Max, which means it’s a very cushioned shoe. The midsole is 5 mm higher than the base model (Cloudsurfer 2) and has an extra hole. The holes are not the same size or shape, and they are not lined up with each other. They are slanted at different angles, which happens during the landing and takeoff process. This is called CloudTec Phase technology. I’m sure the engineers at On did a perfect, precise job, and that everything was fine on the drawing board. I’m sure many runners will enjoy this shoe, but I’m also sure that many will be disappointed. Most people know that Helion foam is a harder foam, but those who have run in On’s everyday running shoes know this. The Cloudsurfer Max midsole doesn’t offer great energy return, and it doesn’t help you push off. It doesn’t feel sluggish, just dull. I don’t expect to run fast in them, but I do expect them to help me run long distances. I want them to require less energy to push off so that my legs tire less quickly. I don’t feel that in these shoes. The midsole is 37 mm at the heel, which is low for this type of shoe, and considering this, the shoe can be considered heavy. For example, the Nike Vomero Plus has a 45 mm midsole and the same weight as the Mizuno Wave Sky 9, the Hoka Bondi 9, and the Asics Gel-Nimbus 27. The Asics Gel-Nimbus 27 has a 43.5 mm midsole and is only slightly heavier than the Puma Magmax Nitro, which weighs the same and has a 46 mm midsole at the heel. There are other examples too. This is important because it may be the higher midsole that could provide dynamism. I think this is made better by the fact that the Cloudsurfer Max midsole has large holes (CloudTec Phase), which should, in theory, make the shoe lighter. I think this is made better by the Cloudsurfer Max midsole’s large holes (CloudTec Phase), which should make the shoe lighter. The midsole is flexible and stable, so it’s great for walking or slower, less intense runs.

On Running Cloudsurfer Max outsole

On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoe outsoleThe On Running Cloudsurfer Max running shoe’s outsole is similar to the Cloudsurfer 2 midsole, which is good news. It has a good grip and doesn’t wear out easily. There is one groove in the middle of the shoe that runs lengthwise and one that runs across the width of the shoe. These grooves make the shoe very flexible. The midsole is of average thickness, and the Cloudsurfer Max outsole is also durable because of its above-average wear resistance.
