On Cloudmonster 3 Hyper LightSpray
A premium super-trainer that pairs the Cloudmonster Hyper's PEBA-based Helion HF midsole with On's robot-sprayed LightSpray upper. The one-piece upper cuts weight but offers minimal structure, so it suits efficient runners on uptempo long runs. Very expensive for a trainer.
Reach for the On Cloudmonster 3 Hyper LightSpray for long runs and tempo days and intervals. It's a neutral shoe, best for runners with an efficient stride who don't need pronation support. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel. That's great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
- Very light for its cushion level
- Bouncy PEBA midsole
- Sock-like LightSpray upper
- Steep price
- Minimal upper structure won't suit everyone
