Full details
The On Cloudflow 5 Trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking to enhance speed in their training sessions. Their key benefit is providing accessible speed through a blend of cushioning and energy return. A potential consideration is that they are specifically geared towards speed work and fast runs, which may not suit all running styles. Key features include Helion HF foam for lightweight cushioning, a Speedboard for extra energy return, Cloudtec pod cushioning, a rocker sole for enhanced forward motion, and a durable outsole with ample rubber coverage. The engineered mesh upper ensures breathable containment for optimal performance.

FAQs
Are the Cloudflow 5 suitable for marathon running?
The Cloudflow 5 is primarily designed for speed work, tempo runs, and shorter races (5k-10k). For marathon distances, you might consider models offering more long-distance cushioning and comfort.
How do I clean my Cloudflow 5 trainers?
Hand wash with lukewarm water and mild soap using a soft brush. Remove laces and insoles before washing. Air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is the main difference between Cloudflow 5 and other On running shoes?
The Cloudflow 5 focuses on delivering accessible speed through a balance of lightweight cushioning (Helion HF) and a propulsive Speedboard, combined with a rocker sole. It's tuned for faster running paces compared to more cushioned or stability-focused models.
Can I wear these shoes for everyday casual wear?
Yes, while designed for performance, the cushioning and aesthetics make them suitable for casual wear if you enjoy the feel and look.
What is the weight of the On Cloudflow 5?
The weight is approximately 270g in a men's US 8.5. Specific weights for women's sizes may vary slightly.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The heel offset is 8mm, which is a moderate drop that suits many running styles.
How much rubber is on the outsole?
The Cloudflow 5 features a large amount of rubber coverage on the outsole, designed to provide durable traction.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Adjust lacing to distribute pressure more evenly. Ensure you are using the correct size. Consider using thinner socks if the issue persists.
Reduced energy return or cushioning feeling flat
Ensure the shoes are not overly worn. The foam and Speedboard may take a few miles to break in. Check for any debris lodged in the outsole pods.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While the outsole has good rubber coverage, very wet conditions can reduce grip. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any mud or debris that might affect traction.
Upper feels restrictive
The engineered mesh provides containment, which can feel snug. Ensure laces are not overtightened. If persistent, check for proper fit around the heel and midfoot.
