Care & Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and performance of your On Running Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and materials. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Waterproofing (Periodic): While the shoes come with an integrated waterproof membrane, periodically treating the outer material with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray can help maintain its water repellency, preventing it from 'wetting out' and ensuring optimal breathability.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the shoe's construction and waterproof properties.
- Insoles: Remove insoles periodically for airing to prevent odor buildup and prolong freshness.
