Above and below (speed)board
The Cloudflash features a layer of Helionpowered
Cloud elements above and below
the Speedboard™ for the first time. The toplayer
of Clouds allows for cushioning closer
to the foot and a more direct feeling when
landing. Positioning Cloud elements under the
Speedboard™ to the shoe‘s rear ensures
protection from the impact of asphalt
especially as feet start to tire and heel-strike
sets in.
New and improved fit
The updated and enhanced, lower-cut collar
around the tongue and heel areas mean feet
slide in to the Cloudflash effortlessly. Molded
padding elements built into the heel secure
your feet for a hold that‘s snug and secure.
Extra clouds, extra stability
Power is nothing without control. As well as
stronger forefoot Cloud elements, the new
Cloudflash features an additional middle
Cloud on the medial side to distribute
pressure, increase grip and protect the
forefoot.
Upper
A single layer of ultralight engineered mesh
keeps weight low while increasing
breathability. Reinforced sections at the
forefoot hold the foot for fast cornering on the
sharp turns of city courses.
Midsole
Helion™ superfoam offers uncompromising
responsive cushioning on the road.
Twin CloudTec® layers above and below the
Speedboard™ provide instant fit and highspeed
comfort.
Speedboard
The explosive carbon-fiber infused
Speedboard increases efficiency every step
and explosive kick when needed.
Outsole
Compressed Zero-Gravity foam Clouds
embody the saying “small but powerful” and in
this case, fast advanced abrasion pads ensure
superior grip and longevity. Low-abrasion
rubber pads provide optimal traction – no
slips, no seconds lost.
Optimal traction
Underfoot, a new rubber compound in a
brand new traction-pattern grips the
ground. Working with the natural transition
of the foot for a firm hold, even charging
over wet city streets. The aggressive rocker
shape of the bottom unit further boosts the
foot‘s rolling motion to propel you towards
the finish line with even higher velocity.
