Full details
The ON Cloudrunner 2 Trainers in Purple are designed for adult females seeking a supportive and comfortable shoe for daily running. Their key benefit lies in providing stable support with medium cushioning, ideal for everyday training. A potential consideration is that they are best suited for daily running, rather than high-performance racing or extreme terrain. Key features include Helion™ superfoam for energy return, CloudTec® cushioning for impact absorption, a durable heel clip, reinforced upper, and a redesigned outsole to prevent stone collection.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The ON Cloudrunner 2 are designed for daily running and offer medium cushioning. While they can be used for marathon training, they may not provide the same level of sustained comfort and support as shoes specifically engineered for ultra-long distances or racing.
What is the main difference between Cloudrunner 2 and other On running shoes?
The Cloudrunner series generally offers more stability and cushioning for everyday use compared to lighter, more performance-focused models like the Cloudboom or Cloudflash. The Cloudrunner 2 specifically emphasizes a stable, supportive ride for daily mileage.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
The shoes offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. Tread cautiously on very wet surfaces, as the outsole grip might be reduced. For extremely wet conditions, consider a waterproof shoe model.
How often should I replace my Cloudrunner 2 trainers?
Most running shoes, including the Cloudrunner 2, are recommended to be replaced every 300-500 miles (480-800 kilometers) of running, or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a loss of cushioning and support.
Is the purple color durable?
The color is integrated into the material and should be durable with proper care. Avoid harsh cleaning agents or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading over time.
What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and performance, moisture-wicking running socks made from synthetic blends or merino wool are recommended. Avoid cotton socks, as they can retain moisture and lead to blisters.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Adjust the lacing. Try different lacing techniques or loosen the laces in specific areas. Ensure you have the correct size by consulting the sizing guide.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness.
Over time, cushioning can degrade. Ensure the shoes are not past their intended lifespan. Check for any debris lodged in the CloudTec® elements that might affect performance.
Soles are accumulating excessive debris.
While the outsole is redesigned to prevent this, deep grooves can still trap material. Use a brush to clean the sole after each use. If the problem persists, consider if the terrain is too aggressive for this shoe model.
Heel slip or lack of heel support.
Ensure the heel clip and reinforced upper are properly engaged by tightening the laces around the ankle area. Try a runner's loop lacing technique for a more secure heel lock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
To maintain the performance and appearance of your Cloudrunner 2 Trainers:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt and mud after runs. For deeper cleaning, hand wash with cold water and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
