On Cloudmonster 2 PAF: The Bold Evolution of Running

Dropping at Shoe Gallery on October 24, the On Cloudmonster 2 PAF represents a unique blend of cutting-edge performance and avant-garde design, thanks to the ongoing collaboration between On Running and Post Archive Faction (PAF). This release brings both colorways, catering to runners and style enthusiasts who crave innovation in their gear.

What Makes the Cloudmonster 2 PAF Special?

The Cloudmonster 2 PAF is more than just a running shoe; it’s a reimagined statement piece that fuses maximum CloudTec® cushioning with a revamped Helion™ superfoam midsole, providing exceptional shock absorption and bounce. The shoe's asymmetrical design draws inspiration from the flowing shapes of Switzerland’s Limmat River, delivering a look that’s both dynamic and functional. With an updated Speedboard®, the sneaker enhances energy return and propulsion, ensuring every stride is as powerful as it is smooth.

Built with lightweight and sustainable materials, the Cloudmonster 2 PAF emphasizes comfort and breathability. It’s not just about performance; the shoe also serves as a work of wearable art, perfect for those who appreciate form and function equally.

About Post Archive Faction (PAF)

Founded in 2018 by Dongjoon Lim and Sookyo Jeong, Post Archive Faction (PAF) emerged from Seoul as a boundary-pushing label that fuses futuristic design with technical sportswear. The brand is renowned for its “anti-fashion” stance, creating collections that challenge conventional aesthetics and delve into themes of deconstruction and apocalyptic futurism. PAF’s approach is rooted in experimental design, often incorporating elements from architecture, multimedia art, and nature. Each piece falls into one of three categories: Right (fundamental), Center (bridging), and Left (radical), allowing for exploration across varying degrees of innovation.

Nominated for the LVMH Prize, PAF has established itself as a leader in avant-garde fashion, blurring the lines between high fashion and performance gear. Their collaboration with On Running further expands this vision, combining PAF’s distinctive style with On’s reputation for high-quality athletic footwear.
