FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all types of running?

The On Cloudmonster Trainers are best suited for daily training, long runs, road running, and recovery runs where maximum cushioning and comfort are priorities. While versatile, their design optimizes for these specific uses rather than track sprints or trail running.

How often should I replace my Cloudmonster trainers?

Typical running shoes last between 300-500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you run on. Pay attention to signs of wear, such as reduced cushioning, worn-out tread, or new aches and pains after runs, which indicate it's time for a replacement.

Can I use these for racing?

While comfortable and offering energy return, the Cloudmonster's maximal cushioning is primarily designed for comfort and training. Some runners prefer lighter, more minimalist shoes for race day for a more 'connected' feel, but personal preference and race distance will ultimately dictate suitability.

Are they waterproof?

The On Cloudmonster Trainers feature a polyester upper which offers some resistance to light splashes and mist. However, they are not fully waterproof. For running in heavy rain or wet conditions, consider specific waterproof running shoes or overshoes.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The Cloudmonster trainers are true to size. We recommend trying them on at the end of the day when your feet are typically at their largest. Ensure there's about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe, and that your heel feels secure without slipping.

What is the 'Speedboard'?

The Speedboard is a specialized liquid-injected plate located within the shoe's midsole. Its purpose is to work in conjunction with the CloudTec elements to transform the energy from your foot's impact into forward propulsion, providing a springy, dynamic, and efficient ride.

Can these shoes help with joint pain?

The maximal CloudTec cushioning in the Cloudmonster trainers is designed to significantly absorb impact, which can reduce stress on joints like knees and hips. While they can offer enhanced comfort and potentially alleviate some impact-related discomfort, they are not a medical device. Consult a healthcare professional for specific joint pain concerns.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too bulky or stiff initially

The Cloudmonster features maximal cushioning and a bold sole. Give your feet a few runs to adjust to the increased stack height and softer, yet responsive, feel. Ensure laces are not overtightened, which can restrict foot movement.

Squeaking sound while running

Squeaking can sometimes occur with new shoes, especially if moisture gets trapped. Check if the insole is properly seated within the shoe. If it persists, try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole to reduce friction.

Laces come undone frequently during runs

For a more secure fit, try using a double knot or an alternative lacing technique, such as the 'surgeon's knot.' Ensure the laces are snug but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for natural foot flex.

Setup: The On Cloudmonster Trainers are designed for immediate use. Simply unbox, lace them up, and go. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to allow for natural foot expansion during activity.

Compatibility: These trainers are primarily designed for adult male runners and are true to size. We recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size for the best fit. Always ensure you have adequate toe room (about a thumb's width) to prevent discomfort during long runs.

Care: To maintain the longevity and performance of your Cloudmonster trainers:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the polyester upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals, as these can damage the materials and compromise shoe integrity.
  • Drying: Air dry at room temperature. Do not expose to direct sunlight or use artificial heat sources like radiators, as this can cause materials to shrink, crack, or degrade the adhesives.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid storing in cramped spaces that could alter their shape.
  • Usage: Rotate your running shoes if you run frequently. This allows the cushioning foam to decompress and recover between runs, extending the overall lifespan of the shoes.
