Robotically Crafted Spray-On Super Shoes: Cloudboom Strike LS Review

3 days ago | gearjunkie.com | Alex Tzelnic

The origin story for On’s LightSpray technology seems tailor-made for Hollywood (cue the Damon and Affleck script). It all started on Halloween several years ago, when Johannes Voelchert, the senior lead of innovation technology design for Swiss brand On, watched his kid use a hot glue gun to make a costume. Marveling at how quickly the liquid turned solid, Voelchert wondered if a similar principle could be used in the construction of running shoes.

I’ve also used some really nice tripods on shoots using Red Cameras in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) and elsewhere. But as soon as I got hold of the Peak Design Pro Tripods, I knew they were something different. “Sexy” was the first word that came to mind when I pulled the Peak Design Pro Tripods out of the box.

1 week ago | gearjunkie.com | Craig Randall

About a year removed from the 2024 Olympics, elite running will return to Paris on June 26 in the form of “Breaking 4,” Kenyan runner Faith Kipyegon’s attempt to set the world’s first women’s sub-4-minute mile. The attempt doesn’t come from nowhere. A February 2025 study in the Journal of Applied Physiology predicted a women’s sub-4 mile within the next decade. Still, to shave nearly 8 seconds off Kipyegon’s current world record of 4:07.64, that’s not evolution — that’s a leap.
