FAQs
What type of runner is the On Cloudmonster designed for?
The On Cloudmonster is ideal for avid and recreational runners who prioritize maximal cushioning and energy return for everyday running, especially on road surfaces. It's built for mileage and comfort.
What is CloudTec® cushioning?
CloudTec® cushioning is On Running's signature technology featuring individual 'cloud' elements that compress upon impact to absorb shock and then lock firm to provide a solid platform for a powerful push-off. The Cloudmonster features the largest CloudTec® ever for enhanced comfort.
How does the Helion™ super foam contribute to the shoe's performance?
Helion™ super foam is a lightweight, durable, and temperature-resistant foam that offers super-soft landings. It works in conjunction with CloudTec® to ensure a plush, indulgent tread and consistent cushioning performance in various conditions.
What is the purpose of the Speedboard®?
The Speedboard® is a plate embedded within the midsole that transforms the energy from your landing into forward momentum. It helps create an unprecedented propulsive feeling, making your stride feel more effortless and efficient.
Are these shoes lightweight?
Yes, despite their maximal cushioning, the Cloudmonster is remarkably lightweight, weighing only 230 grams. This design ensures that comfort and propulsion don't come with added bulk.
Are the On Cloudmonster shoes environmentally friendly?
Yes, the Cloudmonster incorporates a significant amount of recycled material, with approximately 80% of the polyester used in its construction being recycled.
What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Cloudmonster?
The On Running Cloudmonster features a 6mm heel-to-toe drop, which supports a graceful forward rolling motion and a natural running gait.
How do I ensure I get the correct size?
The Cloudmonster is described as having a 'true to size fit.' It's generally recommended to choose your standard running shoe size. If you are unsure, referring to On Running's size guide and measuring your foot can provide further accuracy.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel uncomfortable or I'm experiencing hot spots during a run.
Ensure your shoes are laced correctly, not too tight or too loose. Experiment with different lacing techniques. Check your sock choice; moisture-wicking athletic socks can prevent friction and improve comfort. If discomfort persists, verify that you have the correct size and width, as a 'true to size' fit can still vary slightly for individuals.
The shoes feel less responsive or cushioned than when new.
Running shoe cushioning naturally compresses over time with use. While the Helion™ super foam and CloudTec® are durable, regular use will lead to a gradual reduction in their original feel. Consider rotating between multiple pairs of running shoes to extend their lifespan. Info needed: The expected mileage or lifespan of the Cloudmonster is not specified, but most running shoes typically last 300-500 miles depending on runner weight and gait.
The shoes are getting dirty and losing their fresh appearance.
For light dirt, wipe with a damp cloth. For heavier grime, use a soft brush and a solution of mild soap and cool water. Gently scrub the soiled areas, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or machine dry the shoes, as this can damage the materials and bonding agents. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your Cloudmonster shoes is straightforward:
- Lacing: Utilize the standard lacing system to secure a comfortable and personalized fit. Ensure the laces are snug but not too tight, allowing for natural foot movement without excessive pressure points.
- Break-In: While designed for immediate comfort, a short break-in period of a few easy runs can help the shoes conform fully to your foot shape.

- Runner Type: Ideal for recreational, everyday, and avid runners.
- Terrain: Primarily designed for road running, offering optimal performance and resilience on paved surfaces.
- Gender/Age: Suitable for adult males (based on product details, though Cloudmonster is often a unisex model).
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Cloudmonster running shoes:
- Cleaning: Gently remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher grime, use a mild soap mixed with cool water and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct sunlight or use artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers), as this can cause materials to shrink, crack, or lose shape.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid compressing them in tight spaces to maintain their structural integrity.
- Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles and allow both shoes and insoles to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.
- Info needed: Specific guidelines regarding machine washing or specialized cleaning products from the manufacturer are not provided.
