SUPPORT SHOES

Editor’s comment I agree Paula! It’s so easy to fall in love with them. Although the Cloudflyer feels light and nimble, it offers good support, with the patterning of the cloud elements specifically configured to reduce inward rotations while still allowing for transitions. A great shoe for long miles.
