Product Information
Full details
The On Running Cloudboom Max trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced performance on long-distance runs. Their key benefit is providing an energized, responsive feel through advanced cushioning and a carbon-infused plate, helping to push off and landings feel more dynamic. A potential caveat is that, like many super shoes, they are best suited for race day or specific tempo efforts rather than everyday training due to their specialized construction.

FAQs
Are the Cloudboom Max suitable for daily training?
While durable, the Cloudboom Max is optimized for speed and performance. For daily mileage, using a more traditional, less aggressive trainer might prolong the life of the Cloudboom Max and provide better recovery benefits.
What is the primary benefit of the Helion HF hyper foam?
The Helion HF hyper foam is engineered to provide exceptional cushioning with high energy return, meaning it absorbs impact effectively while also propelling you forward with each stride.
How does the glass fibre-infused Speedboard contribute to performance?
The Speedboard, reinforced with glass fibre, provides a stable platform that works with the foam to enhance propulsion. It helps to create a more efficient and powerful toe-off.
Can I use these shoes in wet conditions?
The outsole is designed for road grip. While they can handle light rain, they are not specifically waterproof and may become heavy or lose traction in very wet or muddy conditions.
What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?
For optimal performance, super shoes like the Cloudboom Max are often recommended for a limited mileage, typically between 200-400 miles, especially if used for intense efforts. Lifespan can vary based on individual weight, running style, and terrain.
How do these compare to other On Running shoes?
The Cloudboom Max is On Running's top-tier racing shoe, focusing on maximum responsiveness and energy return. Other models may offer more balanced cushioning, durability, or support for everyday training.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the issue persists, try adjusting the lacing pattern. For some, breaking in the shoes over a few short runs can alleviate tightness.
Reduced energy return over time
The advanced cushioning and plate are optimized for peak performance. Significant reduction in energy return may indicate the shoe has reached the end of its intended performance lifespan, especially with heavy use.
Upper material feels restrictive
The mesh upper is designed to mold to your foot. If it feels restrictive, ensure laces are not over-tightened. Persistent restriction might indicate an improper fit for your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility:
The Cloudboom Max is designed primarily for road running and competition. While the sole offers good traction, it is not intended for trail running or highly technical terrain.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Clean the shoes with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources, such as radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are not stored under heavy objects that could deform them.
