Product Information
Full details
The On Cloudswift AMP trainers are designed for adult males seeking consistent performance on daily urban routes. Their key benefit lies in the AMP cushioning system, providing responsive energy return for a comfortable ride. A potential caveat is their neutral support, which may not be ideal for runners requiring pronation control. These shoes offer a blend of cushioning, traction, and a secure fit for everyday running.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The On Cloudswift AMP trainers are excellent for daily runs and tempo efforts. For full marathons, consider models specifically designed for maximum long-distance cushioning and support, though these can still be used for shorter marathon training runs.
Can I wear these for gym workouts?
Yes, their lightweight and responsive nature makes them suitable for general gym activities, but they are optimized for road running.
How do I know if I need neutral shoes?
Neutral shoes are best for runners with a natural foot strike, meaning your foot doesn't excessively roll inward (pronation) or outward (supination) upon landing. If unsure, consult a running specialist.
What is the main difference between Cloudswift and Cloudswift AMP?
The AMP version typically features enhancements to the cushioning system for a more responsive feel and potentially updated materials for improved performance.
How long do these shoes typically last?
With proper care and regular use for running, most trainers like the Cloudswift AMP last between 300-500 miles (approx. 500-800 km) before the cushioning and support begin to degrade significantly.
Are they waterproof?
The On Cloudswift trainers are not waterproof, but they are designed with breathable materials that offer some resistance to light moisture.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, they may require a short break-in period. Loosen the laces and re-tie them more evenly.
Reduced cushioning effect
The AMP cushioning may need a short period of use to reach its optimal performance. Check for any debris trapped in the sole's pods.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While designed for road traction, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean from mud or debris.
Discomfort during runs
Verify the shoe size and fit. Consider if your running gait requires more stability than neutral support offers.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush. Avoid machine washing.
