What is the heel drop of the Cloudflyer 5?

Does the Cloudflyer 5 provide good support for overpronation?
Yes, the Cloudflyer 5 is known for its confidence-inspiring supportive hold, achieved through its wider platform, asymmetric dual-density bottom unit construction, and molded heel clip, which helps to secure the foot.
How do I clean my On Cloudflyer 5 running shoes?
To clean your Cloudflyer 5 shoes, gently wipe off dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap with cold water. Allow them to air dry naturally; do not machine wash or use direct heat.
What kind of cushioning technology is used in these shoes?
The Cloudflyer 5 features an improved dual-density midsole incorporating On's signature CloudTec® technology and Helion™ superfoam, designed to provide high impact absorption and a responsive feel.
Are these shoes environmentally friendly?
Yes, the On Cloudflyer 5 is constructed using over 25% total recycled materials, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability.
Is the Cloudflyer 5 suitable for speed work?
While highly cushioned and supportive, the Cloudflyer 5 can be used for faster training sessions where comfort is still desired. However, for dedicated speed work or racing, some runners might prefer a lighter, more minimalist shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause rubbing.
Ensure you have the correct size; check the UK size (e.g., UK 6.5). Verify your lacing technique isn't overly restrictive. Allow for a break-in period, as the plush interior might conform to your foot over a few runs. Consider different running socks.
Lacking expected cushioning or support during runs.
While the Cloudflyer 5 is highly cushioned, individual perception can vary. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn out (typically after 300-500 miles). Check that the dual-density sockliner is properly seated inside the shoe. This model is designed for a supportive ride, which some runners might interpret differently from a purely soft ride.
Slipping on wet surfaces despite updated outsole.
While the updated rubber outsole offers high traction, no shoe is entirely slip-proof. Ensure the outsole tread is clean of debris that might reduce grip. Adjust your stride and pace in very wet or slick conditions. Inspect the outsole for signs of wear and tear that might reduce its effectiveness.
Shoes develop an odor.
Remove the insoles after runs and allow both the shoes and insoles to air dry completely. Avoid storing shoes in enclosed, damp spaces. You can use shoe deodorizer sprays or baking soda (placed in a sock inside the shoe overnight) to help absorb odors.
Upper mesh shows signs of premature wear.
Ensure proper sizing to prevent excessive friction. Avoid activities that subject the upper to extreme abrasion, such as off-road trail running where sharp objects might catch the mesh. Gentle cleaning is recommended to avoid stressing the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care
Proper care will extend the life of your Cloudflyer 5 shoes:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe off dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth immediately after your run. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and cold water. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), which can cause materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures. Consider removing insoles and stuffing with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape if they are very wet.
- Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles and allow both insoles and shoes to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers.
