FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Cloudmonster's enhanced cushioning and responsiveness make them an excellent choice for marathon running, providing comfort and energy return over long distances.

What is the primary difference between Cloudmonster and other On running shoes?

The Cloudmonster series is characterized by its largest Cloud elements and a unique 'speedboard' for maximum cushioning and a powerful forward-rolling sensation, distinguishing it from models focused on lighter weight or more ground-feel.

How do I determine my correct shoe size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by On or your retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. Trying them on if possible is always best.

Can these shoes be used for cross-training or gym workouts?

While they offer good cushioning, they are primarily designed for running. For dedicated cross-training, shoes with a flatter, more stable base may be more appropriate.

How durable is the polyester material?

Polyester is a robust synthetic fabric known for its durability and resistance to stretching and shrinking. The upper is designed to withstand the rigors of regular running.

What is the expected lifespan of the ON Cloudmonster running shoes?

Typically, running shoes like the Cloudmonsters last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running form, weight, terrain, and how you care for them.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the ON Cloudmonster running shoes are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability, making them suitable for dry and wet running conditions but not for submersion in water.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing technique. Try different lacing patterns to customize the fit around the midfoot and ankle. Ensure you are using the correct UK size for your foot.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

While durable, cushioning can degrade with extensive mileage. Consider replacing shoes after approximately 300-500 miles of use, depending on running style and surface.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for road conditions. Be cautious on very wet or slick surfaces, as grip may be reduced compared to specialized trail shoes.

Discomfort during long runs

Ensure the shoes are properly broken in. If discomfort persists, check for potential issues with sock choice, lacing pressure points, or if the shoe size is not optimal for your foot shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for superior comfort.
  • Responsive feel enhances running performance.
  • Durable polyester material ensures longevity.
  • Lightweight design reduces fatigue during long runs.
  • Stylish black colorway is versatile.

Cons

  • Fit may be specific and require trying on.
  • Primarily designed for road running, less ideal for trails.
  • Polyester material might offer less breathability than other fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no special setup. Simply lace them up and they are ready for your run.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running. While they can handle light, well-maintained trails, their optimal performance is on asphalt, concrete, and other paved surfaces.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After each run, brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes completely.
  2. Drying: Allow 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. Avoid leaving them in hot cars or damp environments.
  4. Lacing: Ensure laces are properly tied for a secure fit but avoid overtightening, which can restrict circulation and comfort.
