Cloudmonster Frost/Surf Men's size 9 with original box toe on right shoe is a different color white • Highly cushioned ride • Rocker sole promotes smooth transitions "The Cloudmonster puts a big emphasis on softness. Extra-thick CloudTec units (the thickest On has ever made) combine with a layer of Helion foam in the midsole to deliver a cushy feel, and a polypropylene Speedboard adds a dose of energy return. The sole also features a sharply rockered forefoot shape to propel you forward through your stride, and it’s topped with a soft sockliner for a comfy step-in feel. Testers and RW staff loved this shoe. Test Editor Morgan Petruny notes that it feels soft and forgiving but also lively. “That feeling seemed to be missing in some On shoes up to this point,” she says. “It’s a really nice springy sensation.” For recovery runs or whenever you want supreme cushioning, this is the shoe to reach for."
