FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Cloudmonster trainers?
The Cloudmonster trainers are designed for daily running, focusing on providing maximum cushioning and energy return for road surfaces.
How does the CloudTec® cushioning work?
CloudTec® cushioning elements adapt to your foot strike, providing soft landings and responsive take-offs by engaging upon impact and stabilizing during push-off.
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
These shoes are optimized for road running. While they may offer some grip on light trails, they are not specifically designed for rugged or technical terrain.
What is the benefit of the rocker design?
The rocker design supports a forward-leaning rolling style, which helps to enhance momentum and create a smoother, more efficient stride.
How should I clean my Cloudmonster trainers?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For insoles, hand wash gently and air dry. Avoid machine washing or direct heat.
Can I wear these for racing?
While they offer good energy return, their primary focus is on maximum cushioning for training. For racing, On Running may offer lighter, more performance-oriented models.
What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?
Typically, running shoes like the Cloudmonster are expected to last between 300-500 miles (480-800 km), depending on running style, terrain, and frequency.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing pattern. Try different lacing techniques to customize the fit across the midfoot and forefoot.
Reduced cushioning or energy return over time
Ensure the shoes are not excessively dirty or worn. While durable, cushioning can degrade with very high mileage. Consider replacement after 300-500 miles.
Discomfort after initial runs
Allow a break-in period of 1-3 runs. The rocker design and cushioning may feel different initially. Ensure proper sock choice.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For the interior, use a soft brush and mild soap if necessary, then allow to air dry completely.
