FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all types of running?
The Cloudrunner 2 Waterproof is primarily designed for road running, urban environments, and general fitness activities. While it offers excellent cushioning and support, it may not be ideal for aggressive trail running with highly technical terrain due to its outsole pattern.
How waterproof are these trainers?
These trainers feature a waterproof designation, meaning they are constructed with materials and membranes designed to keep your feet dry in rain, puddles, and damp conditions. They are highly water-resistant and will protect your feet from external moisture.
Can I machine wash my On Running Cloudrunner 2 Waterproof shoes?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, compromise the waterproof membrane, and affect the shoe's structure. Always hand wash with mild soap and air dry.
What is CloudTec® technology?
CloudTec® is On Running's patented cushioning system, featuring individual 'Cloud' elements on the sole. These elements compress horizontally and vertically to provide soft landings and then lock firm for an explosive take-off, delivering a unique balance of cushioning and responsiveness.
Do I need to break in these shoes?
The On Running Cloudrunner 2 Waterproof is designed for immediate comfort, so a lengthy break-in period is generally not required. They should feel comfortable from the first wear. However, it's always good practice to wear new shoes for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to fully adjust.
Is the sizing true to UK standards?
On Running shoes generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are typically between sizes or prefer a specific fit (e.g., more room for thicker socks), you might consider trying on or consulting a size guide.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel warm or sweaty despite breathable mesh.
While the mesh is breathable, the waterproof membrane can reduce ultimate airflow compared to non-waterproof shoes. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks, and consider airing out shoes thoroughly after each use.
Shoes feel less cushioned or responsive over time.
Running shoes have a lifespan, typically around 300-500 miles, depending on individual use and body weight. If your shoes are nearing this mileage, the CloudTec® elements may be compressed, indicating it's time to consider a replacement pair.
A 'squeaking' sound is coming from the shoe.
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or the insole. Try removing the insole, cleaning the inside of the shoe and the insole itself, and then reinserting it. If the issue persists, ensure laces are tied correctly to prevent internal shifting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting Started
Simply unbox your On Running Cloudrunner 2 Waterproof trainers and lace them up to your preferred snugness. Ensure a comfortable fit that allows for natural foot movement without excessive sliding or pressure points. The initial 'break-in' period is typically minimal due to the adaptive CloudTec® cushioning.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for a wide range of activities including:
- Daily Running: Ideal for road running, light jogging, and urban routes.
- Walking: Excellent cushioning makes them perfect for long walks, daily commutes, and standing for extended periods.
- Fitness Training: Suitable for gym workouts, cross-training, and general fitness activities.
- Casual Wear: Their sleek design and comfortable fit make them a great choice for everyday casual styling.
They are compatible with standard athletic socks. For optimal comfort and moisture management in wet conditions, consider moisture-wicking socks.
Product Care
Proper care will extend the lifespan and maintain the performance of your Cloudrunner 2 Waterproof trainers:
- Cleaning: For dirt and mud, gently brush off loose debris. Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe down the mesh upper and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can damage the materials and waterproof membrane. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing in sealed plastic bags, as this can trap moisture.
- Waterproof Maintenance: While waterproof, regular cleaning helps maintain the integrity of the membrane. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
