On Unveil New Robotic Spray-On Running Shoe Tech
On Running has made a remarkable breakthrough with the introduction of its cutting-edge 'LightSpray' technology, showcased in the new Cloudboom Strike LS model. This development holds significant implications for both performance and sustainability in the running footwear sector.
The LightSpray technology represents a game-changer, reducing CO2 emissions by an impressive 75% compared to conventional production methods. The process involves a one-step spray application, allowing for a seamless and lightweight construction. The Cloudboom Strike LS features a sock-like upper without laces for a snug fit, a carbon Speedboard for enhanced support, and On's signature hyper foam in the midsole. The shoe's unique design, free from glue and a secondary sock liner, ensures durability and a reduced environmental footprint. Notable athletes have tested and praised the shoe, with Hellen Obiri achieving success while wearing it.
The Cloudboom Strike LS, priced at $330 USD, is set to hit the market in the fall. Runners and enthusiasts can sign up on On's website to stay updated on its availability.
