FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Cloudswift Amp trainers?

The Cloudswift Amp trainers are designed for cushioned, responsive daily road and city running, offering comfort and propulsion for urban environments.

How does the Cloud Tec® cushioning work?

Cloud Tec® cushioning elements are strategically placed in the sole to provide soft landings and prepare for agile toe-offs, absorbing impact effectively.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

No, these shoes are specifically designed for road and urban running. The outsole and cushioning are optimized for hard, flat surfaces and would not provide adequate grip or protection on trails.

How do I clean my Cloudswift Amp trainers?

Clean them with a soft brush or damp cloth for light dirt. For tougher stains, use mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing and always air dry.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The shoe features an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, which is a common and balanced specification for many road running shoes.

What is the 'cage' upper construction?

The 'cage' upper is a design feature that wraps around the foot to provide a secure, locked-down fit, enhancing stability and support during runs.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The 'cage' upper provides a secure fit, but the overall width might be best assessed by trying them on. They are designed for a standard adult male foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure across the foot. Consider using thinner socks if the issue persists.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

Clean the shoes according to care instructions. While the materials are durable, performance may slightly decrease with extensive wear, indicating it might be time for a replacement.

Slipping on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean, as accumulated dirt can reduce grip. While designed for traction, extreme wet conditions on polished surfaces may still pose a risk.

Upper material feels abrasive

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Break in the shoes with shorter runs and gradually increase mileage. Check for any internal debris causing friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for impact absorption on urban terrain.
  • Responsive feel for efficient forward momentum.
  • Secure and comfortable 'cage' upper construction.
  • Durable polyester material for longevity.
  • Reliable traction for road surfaces.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for road running; less suitable for trails.
  • May not offer sufficient support for severe pronation.
  • Standard lacing system might require frequent adjustment for some users.
  • The visible technical bottom unit, while functional, might not appeal to all aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit. The standard lacing system allows for adjustment to your preferred tightness.

Compatibility: The Cloudswift Amp is compatible with most running socks. For optimal performance and comfort, consider moisture-wicking socks. It is designed for road running and is not recommended for hiking or trail running.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
