Cloudflash (2020)
The 2020 Cloudflash update is a road racing shoe for short-distance races and fast intervals. Helion-powered CloudTec layers sit above and below a carbon fiber-enriched Speedboard, combining underfoot comfort with impact protection. A revised rubber compound and traction pattern update the outsole. It reworks the structure of the earlier Cloudflash rather than simply changing its colors.
