On and POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) Introduce Current Form 4.0: A Journey of Metamorphosis
ZURICH, Switzerland, June 23, 2026 – Swiss sportswear brand On and the South Korean brand POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) introduce the latest expression of their ongoing partnership: Current Form 4.0. The collection explores the connection between human movement and the natural world, as the two become entwined through the lens of metamorphosis.
Continuing to expand on the collaboration’s ideological foundations, Current Form 4.0 turns movement into an act of evolution. Inspired by the moth’s metamorphosis – from cocooned stillness to graceful flight – the collection and accompanying campaign spotlight the transformation implicit within the act of running. Connecting body to mind, the campaign film directed by Theodor Guelat, and photography, shot by Zachary Handley invite the runner to Chase Stillness.
At the core of the collection is the Cloudboom Volt PAF. Designed in collaboration with POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF), the silhouette embodies the collection’s ethos. An intricate overlay design on the upper is paired with an integrated wrap construction to create a striking visual effect that mirrors the moment a moth breaks through its shell. Performance excellence is ensured through a helion midsole for both optimal cushioning and energy return, and a part-woven part-mesh material selection enhances breathability. Available in White / Gale and Ember / Pebble, the collaborative silhouette tells a story of evolution that spans the personal and the athletic.
Launching alongside the footwear is a selection of high performance apparel and accessories, each built for running and reimagined through the POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) avant-garde lens – including the featherweight Zero Jacket, Zero Singlet, Zero 2-in-1 Shorts, Running-T, Run Belt, Zero Cap, and Run Socks.
Current Form 4.0 launches on June 25, 2026, through on on.com, postarchivefaction.com, and select retail partners.
