With CloudTec cushioning and Helion superfoam, these shoes provide a soft landing and a responsive takeoff, making them ideal for city runs and everyday activities. Perfect for training sessions or active play, these shoes offer elite performance for young athletes. The On Cloudswift Youth in this All White colourway takes heavy cues from the Cloudswift 4, maintaining the same look and feel of a premium technical sneaker, adapted for big kids. A soft-engineered mesh upper provides a technical tactile feel that matches the adult version, and it's also highly breathable, light, and durable. The CloudTec has been adapted for big kids, providing cushioned, soft landings and a smooth sensation. There’s no Speedboard, meaning they’re super flexible and light. A bootie construction makes it easy to slip these on and off, and classic laces mean they can tighten it even further to feel secure and locked in. Key features include a mesh upper for breathability, elastic bungee laces and pull tabs for an easy, snug fit. Composition: Upper: polyester. Lining: polyester. Sole: Inner: polyester. Outer: rubber.

How do I clean my Cloudswift Junior shoes?
Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

They feature both elastic bungee laces for easy slip-on convenience and classic laces, which can be used to achieve a customizable, more secure fit for different activities.
What materials are used in the Cloudswift Junior shoes?
The upper and lining are made from polyester, providing breathability and lightness. The outer sole is made of durable rubber for traction and longevity.
Are these shoes lightweight?
Yes, the design, including the absence of a Speedboard, makes them super flexible and light, which is beneficial for young, active feet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the classic laces to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. If using the bungee laces, ensure they are pulled snug for a custom feel. Refer to On Running's size guide to confirm the correct shoe size.
Foot feels hot or sweaty during use.
The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks (e.g., moisture-wicking athletic socks). Allow shoes to fully air out between uses.
Squeaking sound while walking.
This can sometimes occur if the insole shifts. Try removing the insole, cleaning the inside of the shoe and the insole, then reinserting it firmly. Ensure the shoes are completely dry.
Difficulty getting the shoes on.
Utilize the pull tabs on the heel and tongue to help guide the foot into the bootie construction. Loosen the classic laces if they are tied too tightly, or adjust the bungee laces.
