On is a Switzerland-based footwear company that is releasing a ‘Cloudeasy’ sneaker silhouette as an extension of its ‘All Day’ category. The sneaker uses On’s ‘CloudTec’ multi-directional cushion technology, making the sneaker ideal for everyday use rather than solely focusing on performance.
The ‘Cloudeasy’ sneaker uses knitted uppers, ‘CloudTec’ in Zero Gravity Foam, and a half Speedboard made from TPU, cutting down waste and providing additional cushioning. The Speedboard also uses an injection process that further reduces waste in the manufacturing process, and the sneaker can also be easily packed for traveling.
The ‘Cloudeasy’ sneaker arrives in multiple unique colorways, including a pale pink and white. The new footwear offering from On is available on the brand’s website and select retailers.
