Product Information

Full details

These On Cloudmonster trainers are designed for adult females seeking dynamic rebound and a forward-rolling sensation during their daily runs. The key benefit is maximum cushioning for soft landings and powerful takeoffs, achieved through advanced Helion™ superfoam and CloudTec® technology. A potential caveat to consider is that while designed for road running, they may offer a specific feel that might require adjustment for runners accustomed to minimalist shoes.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

The On Cloudmonster trainers are primarily designed for road running. While they may offer some traction on light trails, they are not optimized for technical terrain and may lack the necessary grip and protection for serious trail running.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel snug but not constricted. Trying them on at the end of the day when feet are slightly swollen can help achieve an accurate fit.

What is the main difference between Cloudmonster and other On models?

The Cloudmonster stands out with its maximal cushioning provided by Helion™ superfoam and a generous stack height, offering a unique combination of softness and rebound, geared towards long-distance comfort and dynamic energy return.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The harsh agitation and heat can damage the shoe's construction, adhesives, and materials. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan of running shoes varies greatly depending on factors like mileage, running surface, gait, and weight. However, for average daily use on roads, most runners find that shoes like the Cloudmonster maintain optimal performance for approximately 300-500 miles (480-800 kilometers).

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Cloudmonster provides a supportive platform due to its cushioning and Speedboard® technology. However, specific arch support needs vary per individual. For those requiring significant arch support, consider consulting with a running specialist or using custom insoles.

Is the orange color true to the image?

Color representation can vary slightly based on screen settings and lighting conditions. The 'Orange' variant features a vibrant, noticeable orange hue as seen in product images.

Troubleshooting

Laces won't stay tied

Ensure the laces are properly threaded and tied with a double knot. If laces are old or worn, consider replacing them with a new, grippier pair.

Discomfort after initial wear

It's normal for new shoes to require a short break-in period. Try wearing them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase mileage. Ensure the lacing provides a comfortable, secure fit without being too tight.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The Helion™ superfoam is designed for durability, but its 'new' responsiveness may lessen slightly with extensive use. Ensure the shoe's outsole and cushioning units are clean, as debris can affect performance. Regular cleaning can help maintain optimal function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond wearing them. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tightness for a secure fit.

Compatibility: The On Cloudmonster trainers are optimized for road running. They are compatible with most running apparel and accessories.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Insoles: If removable, the insoles can be taken out and hand-washed separately with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
