Description
The On Men’s Cloudflyer 5 is a premium stability trainer designed for runners and athletes who demand a secure, supportive ride without sacrificing cushioning. Engineered with dual-density Helion™ superfoam, it delivers a firmer midfoot and heel paired with a softer forefoot to create smooth, efficient transitions and absorb impact over long distances. This means more comfort where you land and softness where you push off—a ride that’s protective, yet lively.
Weighing around 320 g (11.6 oz) with a heel-to-toe drop of 9 mm, the Cloudflyer 5 strikes a balance between ample protection and road-ready agility. The outsole features a wide base and flared platform for torsional stability, complemented by CloudTec® pods that cushion and rebound with each step. A molded heel counter cradles the foot, while dual-density sockliner adapts to your arch and heel for enhanced underfoot comfort.
The upper uses plush engineered mesh with a re-engineered padded collar and gusseted tongue that stay snug underfoot, preventing heat buildup and enhancing fit. Though it leans toward a firmer feel—well-suited for flat-footed individuals or those needing guidance—it remains breathable and flexible enough for walking, daily training, and long-haul mileage.
Stability is a standout feature. The Cloudflyer 5 incorporates dual-density foam extending across the medial arch, a wide stable platform, and structural sidewalls—all working to reduce pronation and improve gait efficiency. Reviewers note its ability to support symptoms of shin splints and plantar fasciitis thanks to its firm foundation and supportive heel cup .
Though it’s heavier than many neutral trainers, the On Men’s Cloudflyer 5 is ideal for those prioritizing stability and support over lightweight performance. With resilient cushioning, secure lockdown, and a distinctive Swiss-engineered platform, it excels for recovery runs, daily miles, and active lifestyles—delivering a confidence-inspiring ride mile after mile.
