FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?

Do I need to size up with the Cloudflyer 5?

On Running trainers generally have a snug fit. It is recommended to opt for at least half a size larger than your usual shoe size for optimal comfort and performance.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

The Cloudflyer 5 is primarily designed for road running, offering optimal performance on paved surfaces. While they provide good stability, they are not specifically engineered for the varied and uneven terrains of trail running.

How should I clean my Cloudflyer 5 trainers?

You can machine wash your trainers cold on a gentle cycle. It is recommended to place them in a mesh laundry bag. Always air dry them completely, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of these shoes?

The Cloudflyer 5 has a heel-to-toe drop of 9mm, which is a common drop for neutral and stability running shoes, designed to promote a comfortable and efficient stride.

Are these shoes sustainable?

Yes, the Cloudflyer 5 demonstrates a commitment to sustainability with a minimum of 90% recycled polyester used in the upper and at least 20% total recycled content in the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable during runs.

On Running trainers are known for a tighter fit. Ensure you've selected a size at least half a size larger than your usual. Re-adjust the lacing system for a looser, more comfortable fit if needed, focusing on not overtightening.

My feet get too hot during long runs.

The Cloudflyer 5 features a breathable mesh upper designed for airflow. Ensure you're wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. If the issue persists, check if the lacing is too tight, which can restrict circulation and airflow.

Lack of grip on wet surfaces.

The outsole features durable grip sections for traction. While designed for road running, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Adjust your stride and speed accordingly. Regular cleaning of the sole can also ensure optimal traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior cushioning and impact absorption for long runs
  • Enhanced stability through a wider platform and robust heel counter
  • Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool and comfortable
  • Lightweight design with CloudTec® technology for efficient strides
  • Added comfort and ankle support from padded collar and tongue

Cons

  • Sizing Consideration: Many users find On Running trainers to have a snug fit, often requiring a half-size larger than usual for optimal comfort.
  • Specialized Use: Primarily optimized for road running, these shoes may not offer the same performance or durability on technical trails or rough off-road terrain.
  • Weight for Speed: At 275g, while offering significant cushioning and support, they might be considered heavier than some minimalist or racing-specific shoes, which could be a factor for competitive speed work.

  1. Sizing: Due to their snug fit, consider opting for at least half a size larger than your usual shoe size for optimal comfort.
