Sizing philosophy

Swiss engineering — CloudTec pods and Speedboard. Lasts are narrow and low-volume, built for efficient forefoot runners.

Cloudmonster, Cloudsurfer, Cloudrunner: true to size but narrow. Cloud 5, Cloud X: 0.5 small — most people size up. Cloudultra: true to size with more toe box room.

Width & last
