FAQs

What type of running are the Cloudmonster shoes best suited for?

The On Cloudmonster shoes are specifically designed for long-distance runs, recovery runs, and daily training routines where supreme comfort and maximum cushioning are desired.

How do the Cloud elements contribute to the running experience?

The largest Cloud elements ever integrated into an On shoe provide exceptionally soft landings by compressing and then expanding to offer maximum rebound, giving a 'cushioned yet responsive' feel.

Are these shoes environmentally friendly?

Yes, approximately 80% of the polyester material used in the shoe's construction is made from recycled content, reflecting a commitment to sustainability.

Can I use the Cloudmonster for trail running?

These shoes are optimized for road running. While they offer excellent cushioning, their outsole design is not specifically engineered for the varied and often unpredictable terrain of trail running. For trail use, dedicated trail running shoes are recommended.

Do these shoes require a breaking-in period?

While the Cloudmonster shoes offer immediate comfort, like any new running shoe, it's always a good idea to wear them for shorter distances first before embarking on a long run to allow your feet to fully adapt to their specific cushioning and fit.

How does the Speedboard technology work?

The integrated Speedboard is a plate within the midsole that works with the Cloud elements and rocker shape to provide explosive energy return and facilitate smooth, propulsive transitions, helping to drive you forward efficiently.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too bulky or less responsive than expected.

The Cloudmonster is engineered for maximal cushioning, which inherently leads to a larger profile. This sensation is typical for its design. Give your feet and body time to adapt to the plush ride. If you prefer a more minimalist feel, these shoes may not be the best fit for that specific preference.

Foot discomfort or rubbing during runs.

Ensure your shoes are laced correctly – not too tight, not too loose. Experiment with different lacing techniques. Check that your socks are appropriate for running and consider if your shoe size is accurate. Foot swelling can occur during longer runs, so ensure there's adequate toe room.

White shoes quickly get dirty or stained.

Due to the all-white color, visible dirt is more common. Clean your shoes regularly using the care instructions provided (hand wash with cold water and mild soap, air dry). Consider using shoe protection sprays designed for fabric to help repel dirt and stains before they occur.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for ultra-soft landings and impact absorption
  • High energy return provides a lively, propulsive, and 'playful' ride
  • Optimized for comfort during long runs, recovery, and daily training
  • Smooth and efficient transitions thanks to the Speedboard and rocker shape
  • Significant use of recycled materials supports environmental sustainability

Cons

  • Maximal cushioning might reduce ground feel for some runners
  • The all-white color variant may show dirt and require more frequent cleaning
  • Potentially a bulkier feel compared to lightweight, minimalist running shoes
  • Info needed: May not be ideal for speed work or track efforts due to focus on cushioning
  • Info needed: May not offer sufficient stability for overpronators without additional support

Setup: Ensuring the Right FitThe Cloudmonster shoes are ready to wear out of the box. For optimal comfort and performance, ensure proper lacing. Utilize all eyelets for a secure fit that prevents heel slip without being too tight, which can restrict blood flow. If your feet swell during runs, consider a slightly looser initial tie.## CompatibilityThese shoes are primarily designed for road running and are suitable for a wide range of foot strikes. They are an excellent choice for runners seeking maximum cushioning, from beginners to experienced marathoners. Their generous cushioning makes them especially compatible with runners who prefer a softer ride or those recovering from injuries. They are an adult-sized shoe, specifically designed for men, with a UK size 8.5 for this variant.## Care and MaintenanceTo prolong the life and maintain the performance of your On Cloudmonster shoes, follow these care instructions:1. Cleaning: Gently remove loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., an old toothbrush). For deeper cleaning, hand wash using cold water and a mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers), which can warp materials or cause adhesives to break down. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid storing them in damp environments to prevent odor and mildew.4. Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes. This allows the cushioning to fully decompress and recover between runs, extending the lifespan of both pairs.
