FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

Yes, the high level of cushioning makes them an excellent choice for marathon training and race day for runners who prioritize joint protection.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

They are suitable for cardio-heavy gym work, but the high stack height may be less stable for heavy lifting compared to flat-soled training shoes.

How do I know if the size 12.5 is right for me?

If you typically wear a UK 12.5 in other performance running brands, these will likely fit similarly. Always ensure adequate toe room.

Do these shoes provide arch support?

The Cloudmonster provides a neutral, stable platform that accommodates most foot shapes, though it is not a dedicated stability shoe for severe overpronation.

How long should the cushioning last?

Like most high-performance trainers, you can expect to get between 300 and 500 miles out of the midsole before the energy return properties begin to diminish.

Troubleshooting

Rocks or debris stuck in the outsole clouds

Use a blunt object or your fingers to carefully pry out trapped gravel after each run.

Feeling of slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the laces using the 'runner's loop' technique to secure the heel lock and prevent internal movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Cloudmonster trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes fit true to size; ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe to accommodate foot swelling during long runs.
  2. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow 15-20 miles for the foam and upper materials to mold fully to your foot shape.
  3. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine as this can degrade the specialized cushioning materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the foam from hardening or the colors from fading.
