04: On Cloudsoma

On Cloudsoma ¥24,200
Scheduled for release on April 2, 2026
Fuinam: Just looking at it, it’s quite different from what we’ve seen so far.
Miyazaki: Yes. It has a fresh feel to it—something we haven't seen before.
Tokunaga: The most notable feature is a new outsole structure called CloudTec Connect. Rather than being a single, solid piece, it’s divided into pod-like sections that are connected to one another.
Fuinam: A feeling of free-flowing flexibility?
Miyazaki: That's right. It flexes easily both vertically and horizontally, and it provides a great sense of ground contact. That said, it's not just soft—it also has a shank in the arch area, so it offers good stability.
Fuinam: By the way, are these running shoes?
Miyazaki: In terms of category, these are performance trail running shoes. However, rather than being designed for serious mountain use, I think this model is just right for running or walking on lighter trails or through nature.
Fuinam: It might be a bit surprising to see performance trail running shoes at “Atmos.”
Tokunaga: Lately, there’s been a strong trend of wearing performance shoes as everyday footwear, hasn’t there? These have such great designs that I think a lot of people choose them as sneakers, whether they run or not.
Fuinam: It does have a bit of a connoisseur vibe to it, doesn't it?
Miyazaki: I think it will really appeal to people who like 〈On〉 and are curious about a model that’s different from what they’ve seen before.
