By taking their maximum-cushioned Cloudmonster platform and wrapping it in the ultralight LightSpray upper technology, On has created something genuinely new: a 45mm stack height trainer that weighs just 8.8 ounces (250g). That’s lighter than most racing flats despite carrying serious cushioning credentials — 139 Shore A hardness in the heel and 122 in the forefoot puts this firmly in the plush category. The engineering breakthrough here is the LightSpray upper construction. Instead of traditional sewn panels and overlays, On uses a single-layer spray-on polymer that forms directly to the last. The result strips away unnecessary weight while maintaining structure through clever geometric patterning. Underneath, the Helion HF foam delivers On’s highest-performance midsole compound to date, engineered specifically for responsive energy return at lighter weights. Here’s the honest verdict: this shoe excels at one specific thing — giving runners who want maximal cushioning the lightest possible package. The 45mm heel stack provides genuine impact protection for long runs, while the sub-250g weight means your legs won’t feel anchored to the ground. However, the extreme lightness comes with trade-offs. The LightSpray upper, while innovative, lacks the plush comfort of traditional constructions. The narrow fit through the midfoot won’t suit wider feet. And at $380 RRP, you’re paying a significant premium for the weight savings. This is a specialist tool for runners who prioritise the cushion-to-weight ratio above all else. Who It’s For Efficient runners logging 60-100km weekly who want maximum cushioning without the typical weight penalty — the 250g weight won’t drag during those Sunday long runs Midfoot strikers building volume for marathons — the 45mm stack height provides protection while the firmer forefoot (122 Shore A) maintains ground feel Runners transitioning from traditional trainers to lighter options — this bridges the gap between daily trainers and racing shoes Those with neutral gaits on smooth surfaces — the wide platform provides inherent stability without medial posting Who Should Skip It Runners needing genuine stability features — there’s zero pronation control here. The ASICS Novablast 5 offers similar stack heights with FF Blast Eco cushioning at $199.99 Anyone prioritising upper comfort over weight — the LightSpray construction feels rigid compared to knit uppers. The New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v14 delivers plush all-around comfort for $169.99 Budget-conscious runners — at $380, you’re paying heavily for the weight innovation. The HOKA Bondi 9 provides similar max cushioning at $260 Wide-footed runners — the narrow midfoot fit is non-negotiable with the spray-on upper construction Key Specs Weight 8.8oz / 250g — lighter than most racing shoes despite the max cushioning Stack Height 45mm heel — serious cushioning that puts this in super trainer territory Midsole Hardness 139 Shore A (heel) / 122 Shore A (forefoot) — plush heel cushioning with firmer forefoot for toe-off Upper Technology LightSpray construction — single-layer polymer eliminates traditional overlays and stitching Midsole Foam Helion HF — On’s highest-performance compound engineered for energy return at lighter weights Price Intelligence The current best price for the On Cloudmonster 3 Hyper LightSpray is $380.00 at Pace Athletic, matching the full RRP. On Running AU shows $0.00, which typically indicates out of stock rather than a genuine price. At full retail pricing with no discounts available, this remains one of the most expensive non-plated trainers on the Australian market. Given the premium positioning and recent release, don’t expect discounts soon. If you’re committed to this specific technology, buy when you find your size in stock — On’s limited production runs of LightSpray models tend to sell through quickly. For price-conscious buyers, waiting 6-8 months typically sees first markdowns of 15-20% on On products. How It Compares Model Price (AU) Key Difference Best For ASICS Novablast 5 $199.99 Heavier (281g) but better upper comfort and $180 cheaper Daily training value NB Fresh Foam X 1080v14 $169.99 Traditional construction, wider fit, less responsive foam All-day comfort HOKA Bondi 9 $260.00 Even more cushioning (33mm) but 50g heavier Maximum protection Value Rating (2 out of 5) At $380, the Cloudmonster 3 Hyper LightSpray asks a massive premium for its weight-saving technology. You’re essentially paying $130 extra compared to comparable super trainers purely for the LightSpray upper and 50-80g weight reduction. The midsole performance, while excellent, doesn’t justify this price gap alone — the Helion HF foam performs similarly to other premium compounds at lower price points. The value proposition only makes sense for a specific runner: someone who logs serious weekly mileage, wants maximal cushioning, and considers every gram of weight savings worth the investment. For everyone else, the Novablast 5 delivers 90% of the performance at half the price.
