On Cloudaway Kanazawa

On draws inspiration from Japanese city Kanazawa’s train station to release a limited edition of their most adventurous sneaker.

 

West of Tokyo lies Kanazawa, a city of half a million inhabitants that has, in recent years, become the top destination of thousands of travelers thanks to the arrival of the shinkansen, the high-speed train.

The Kanazawa train station, with its majestic glass structure inspired by the tsuzumi (a Japanese hourglass-shaped drum), has gone from being a place of transit to being the ultimate stop.

 

From the Swiss mountains where it was born, On explores the technologies developed for performance to approach a new design language and transport all its benefits to everyday use. 

 

The On Cloudaway Kanazawa is the most adventurous edition of the  brand's silhouette. The sneakers take on the colors and references of the Kanazawa station, with its mix of glass, metal and wood. Flexible, comfortable and durable, these shoes are ready to take you on the roads less traveled.

 

They feature an ultra-lightweight, breathable mesh and synthetic suede upper, a CloudTec® midsole, a solo lace fastening with a unique design for a quick, personalized fit, and a 3D map, on the outsole, of the Swiss Engadine Valley.

 

The special edition of the On Cloudaway Kanazawa for men and women is already available at SVD.
