Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable on first wear.

Running shoes, especially those with advanced cushioning, often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for shorter walks or runs initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot and gait. Ensure laces are not too tight.

Laces frequently come undone during runs.

Try using a 'surgeon's knot' or a double knot when tying your laces. This provides extra security and can prevent them from loosening during activity. Ensure laces are clean and free of excessive wear.

Shoes feel less cushioned or responsive over time.

Running shoes have a lifespan, typically 300-500 miles, after which cushioning and support can degrade. If you've reached this mileage, it might be time for a new pair. Ensure regular cleaning to prevent dirt buildup from impacting foam performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your On Cloudmonster Trainers is straightforward. These shoes are designed to be a true-to-size fit, so generally, you can select your regular shoe size. Simply lace them up using the standard lacing system, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit that secures your foot without excess pressure. Adjust the lacing until you find the optimal tension for your foot shape and running style.

  • Runner Type: Excellent for recreational runners and avid runners who prioritize cushioning, comfort, and a responsive feel over fast race-day performance.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Cloudmonster Trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the upper and sole with a soft brush or cloth, using mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials that could damage the fabric or foam. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can warp materials or cause adhesives to degrade.
  3. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
  4. Odor Control: If odors develop, remove the insoles and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb smells.
  5. Inspection: Regularly check the outsole for excessive wear. While durable, the lifespan of running shoes depends on usage and individual gait.
