FAQs

What type of runner is the Cloudmonster best suited for?

The Cloudmonster is ideal for runners who prioritize maximum cushioning for everyday runs, long distances, and recovery runs. It's well-suited for adult runners seeking a comfortable, protective, and propulsive experience on the road.

How does the cushioning compare to other On running shoes?

The Cloudmonster offers On's max-level cushioning, providing a significantly softer and more protective feel than models like the Cloudflow or Cloudswift, focusing on impact absorption and comfort over ground feel.

Can I use these for racing?

While they offer excellent energy return, they are primarily designed for daily training and long runs due to their max cushioning. Some runners may find them suitable for longer races where comfort is paramount, but they are not optimized for the lightweight, minimalist feel of dedicated racing flats.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Cloudmonster trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and performance in typical running conditions. For wet weather, consider waterproof running shoe options.

How should I clean my Cloudmonster trainers?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Remove insoles and laces to clean separately. Always air dry away from direct heat and never machine wash.

What is the expected lifespan of the Cloudmonster trainers?

With proper care, most runners can expect to get between 300 to 500 miles (approx. 480 to 800 km) out of the Cloudmonster trainers before the cushioning and support significantly diminish.

Does the orange color fade easily?

Modern shoe dyes are typically very durable. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause any color to fade over time. Storing them away from sunlight when not in use is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight/loose

Adjust the lacing pattern. Different lacing techniques can alter the pressure points and overall fit.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

While the Helion™ superfoam is durable, cushioning may naturally decrease with very high mileage. Consider replacing the shoes after 300-500 miles for optimal performance.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for road surfaces. For significantly wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution or consider shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.

Pros and Cons

  • Comfortable upper and sock liner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they are laced correctly to achieve your desired fit.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running on paved surfaces. They are compatible with standard running socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.

  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
