FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Helion HF foam?

The Helion HF foam provides exceptional lightweight cushioning and a high level of energy return, designed to enhance speed and comfort during fast runs.

Who is the On Cloudflow 5 designed for?

It's designed for adult male runners, including both dedicated athletes and casual runners, who want to improve their speed work and fast training sessions.

How does the Speedboard contribute to performance?

The glass fibre and nylon blend Speedboard works with the midsole foam to provide an energetic pop and enhance the shoe's propulsive feel, aiding forward motion.

Is this shoe suitable for long-distance running?

While the cushioning is present, the shoe is optimized for speed. It can be used for longer distances by runners who prefer a responsive feel, but it's primarily geared towards faster training and races.

How should I clean my Cloudflow 5 trainers?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the heel offset of the Cloudflow 5?

The heel offset is 8mm, which contributes to the shoe's balanced feel and forward-promoting geometry.

What are the stack heights?

The stack heights are 36mm in the heel and 28mm in the forefoot.

Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on outsole

Ensure proper running form and consider if the terrain is appropriate for the shoe. Rotating with other shoes can also extend lifespan.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Foam compounds naturally compress with use. Check for debris in the Cloudtec pods. Rotating shoes can help maintain cushioning.

Discomfort due to rocker geometry

Allow for a gradual break-in period. Ensure the shoes are laced correctly to secure the foot. If persistent, consult with a running specialist.

Upper feels too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring a snug but not overly restrictive fit. The engineered mesh can adapt slightly, but proper lacing is key.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return for faster runs.
  • Lightweight cushioning for comfort during speed work.
  • Breathable upper for improved ventilation.
  • Responsive Speedboard enhances propulsion.
  • Durable outsole provides reliable grip.

Cons

  • Rocker geometry may require an adjustment period.
  • May not be suitable for runners seeking maximalist cushioning.
  • Specific foam compound might be best suited for faster paces.
  • Dual-density midsole might feel firmer to some runners.
  • Limited color options compared to some competitor brands.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they are tied securely using the lacing system for optimal fit and support.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running and track use, the Cloudflow 5 is compatible with most running surfaces. They are suitable for adult male runners with a neutral gait.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more stubborn stains, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
