FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?
The Cloudswift 4 offers excellent cushioning and energy return, making them comfortable for daily runs and moderate distances. For very long distances (e.g., marathons), individual preference for cushioning and support varies, but they are capable.
What is the best way to clean my Cloudswift 4 trainers?
Hand wash with a damp cloth and mild soap. Gently scrub the upper and sole, then air dry completely in a cool, shaded area. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Can I use these trainers for cross-training or gym workouts?
Yes, their stable platform and grippy sole make them suitable for general gym workouts and cross-training. However, for specialized activities like heavy weightlifting, dedicated training shoes might be more appropriate.
How does the Speedboard technology work?
The Nylon-blend Speedboard is a plate embedded in the midsole that works with the Helion superfoam to absorb impact energy and then release it, creating a responsive feel and propelling you forward with each step.
Is the sizing true to size?
On Running shoes generally run true to size. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit, especially considering individual foot shape and preferred sock thickness.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The airy knit upper provides excellent breathability but is not designed to be waterproof. They will offer some resistance to light splashes, but for heavy rain or wet conditions, your feet may get wet.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort during wear.
Ensure laces are tied correctly – not too tight, not too loose. Check that your socks are appropriate for the activity and that the shoe size is correct. Allow for a break-in period if new.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While the sole is grippy, exercise caution on extremely wet or icy surfaces. The design is optimized for general urban traction, not extreme conditions.
Trainer squeaks when walking.
A common cause can be trapped moisture or friction between insoles and the shoe's interior. Remove and re-insert insoles, or try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder underneath them. If persistent, check for foreign objects.
Odor build-up inside shoes.
Remove insoles after wear to allow airing. Use odor-absorbing inserts or sprays. Ensure shoes are completely dry before storing. Regular cleaning helps prevent odor.
Upper material showing signs of wear quickly.
Review care instructions to ensure proper cleaning. Avoid activities that expose the knit upper to excessive abrasion (e.g., scraping against rough surfaces). Ensure correct sizing to prevent undue stress on material.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care extends the lifespan and maintains the performance of your Cloudswift 4 trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the Textile & Synthetic Upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the knit material.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soap to clean the Synthetic Sole and remove any dirt or debris from the grippy tread.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers) as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Avoid Submerging: Do not machine wash or submerge the trainers in water, as this can compromise the structural integrity and cushioning properties.
