On Running Cloudsurfer Trail 2

The On Cloudsurfer Trail 2 is a trail running shoe for male runners in a gray/blue colorway, size 42 1/5. This successor to the original Cloudsurfer Trail integrates On's CloudTec cushioning technology with individual cloud elements that compress upon impact for a soft landing and accelerate forward during push-off. The trail-specific outsole features multidirectional lugs made from Missiongrip rubber compound, providing reliable traction on various terrains such as wet rocks, loose gravel, and muddy paths. The upper is made from technical mesh with hidden zones in high-wear areas, ensuring breathability while maintaining structural integrity. A molded heel cap and internal heel padding enhance stability and comfort during descents and technical sections. The weight is approximately 300 g per shoe in size 42 1/5, with a stack height of 28 mm at the heel and 22 mm at the forefoot, resulting in a 6 mm drop that promotes a natural running motion. The integrated Speedboard technology in the midsole offers responsive energy return while maintaining flexibility for uneven surfaces. Reflective elements on the heel and laces improve visibility in low-light conditions. The shoe accommodates standard sports socks and features an integrated tongue to protect against dirt. Suitable for trail running distances up to marathon length on moderate to technical trails, this model represents a balanced approach to cushioning, protection, and ground feel for dedicated trail runners.
