FAQs

What is the main benefit of the CloudTec cushioning system?

The CloudTec cushioning system is designed to provide a soft landing when you need it and a firm takeoff, activated only during the impact phase of your stride, optimizing comfort and efficiency.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Cloudmonster 3's maximalist design, high energy return, and enhanced cushioning make them well-suited for long-distance training and marathon races.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by On Running. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the size chart. For running shoes, it's often advised to have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Can I use these shoes for cross-training or gym workouts?

While they offer comfort and support, their primary design is for running. For specific gym activities like weightlifting or intense agility drills, specialized training shoes might offer better stability and support.

How often should I replace my Cloudmonster 3 Trainers?

Running shoe lifespan typically ranges from 300 to 500 miles (480 to 800 kilometers), depending on factors like running surface, body weight, and running form. Look for signs of wear on the outsole and midsole cushioning.

What is the difference between Cloudmonster and other On models?

The Cloudmonster series is On's maximalist offering, focusing on maximum cushioning and energy return for long runs and recovery. Other models might offer a firmer, more responsive feel or a lighter design for faster paces.

Are the materials used eco-friendly?

On Running is committed to sustainability. The Cloudmonster 3 incorporates recycled materials in its construction, and the brand continuously works towards reducing its environmental impact.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing system. Ensure you are using the correct sock type and thickness. If the issue persists, the shoe size or fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might impede cushioning. The foam and CloudTec elements naturally adapt to your stride; significant reduction may indicate extended wear.

Slipping during runs.

Check the outsole for wear and tear. Clean the outsole to remove any dirt or debris that could affect grip. Ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces for the shoe's intended use.

Upper material feels restrictive.

Try adjusting the lacing to provide more room in the forefoot or midfoot. The knit upper is designed to be snug yet flexible; ensure it is laced appropriately for your foot's volume.

Cons

  • Maximalist design may require an adjustment period for some runners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are the correct size and fit comfortably before your first run. Lace them using the standard lacing method or adjust to your preferred tension.

Compatibility: The On Cloudmonster 3 Trainers are designed primarily for road running and general fitness activities. They are compatible with most running socks. They are not specifically designed for highly technical trails or water sports.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Cloudmonster 3 Trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
  4. Outsole Care: Periodically check the outsole for debris and clean it gently to ensure optimal grip.
