On Cloudsoma Portobello

Portobello is a deep brown that hides dirt well, which makes it a practical pick for the wetter half of the year. As a daily trainer the Cloudsoma leans on CloudTec pods for a soft, absorbing landing and a Speedboard plate for a forward-moving ride, a combination aimed squarely at comfortable mileage rather than speed.

Cold, damp months are where it fits best, covering easy and steady running on road and firm path. The upper holds the foot securely without trapping too much heat, the outsole rubber copes with wet pavement, and the platform is broad enough that a tiring stride still lands predictably underfoot. Through a wet winter, a shoe that shrugs off dirt earns its keep.
