On Running Cloudtilt - Black - UK 8

CloudTec Phase is an innovative cushioning technology from On Running designed to provide an ultra-smooth ride. It works by sequentially collapsing the Cloud elements in your stride, absorbing impact, and creating a sensation of seamless transition from landing to push-off.

The Cloudtilt shoes are optimized for comfort and a smooth ride, making them excellent for daily wear, walking, and light to moderate jogging. For high-intensity running, long-distance training, or competitive races, other specialized On Running models might be more appropriate, depending on your needs.

Wipe the speed-lace cords and toggle with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or grime. Avoid submerging the toggle in water, and allow it to air dry completely.

The upper is crafted from breathable mesh textile and durable synthetic overlays, while the sole is made from a synthetic material, primarily featuring Helion superfoam and a grippy rubber outsole.

On Running shoes generally run true to size, but the Cloudtilt features a snug, sock-like insole. If you are between sizes or prefer a slightly looser fit, you might consider going up half a size. Always refer to a size guide if available.

The On Running Cloudtilt shoes feature a breathable mesh textile upper, which is not inherently waterproof. They are designed for general dry-weather use. For water-resistant or waterproof options, look for specific models designated as such.

While the mesh upper is breathable, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. Ensure the laces aren't too tight, restricting airflow. If the issue persists, ensure the shoes are clean as accumulated dirt can reduce breathability.

Adjust the speed-lace toggle. Pull the laces firmly to tighten, or press the toggle and loosen by pulling the laces apart. Experiment with the tension to find your ideal secure yet comfortable fit.

Squeaking can sometimes come from the outsole's grip on certain floor surfaces, or from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, ensuring it's seated correctly. Check the outsole for any small debris lodged in the grooves.

Ensure you have the correct size. The sock-like insole provides a snug fit, so confirm it's not too tight. Make sure you're wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's cushioning is suitable for your specific foot mechanics or activity level, as these are designed for general comfort and light activities.

Check the grippy rubber outsole for dirt, mud, or small stones lodged in the tread, and clean them thoroughly. If the tread appears significantly worn down, the shoe's traction capabilities may be diminished, indicating it might be time for a replacement.
