On Running Cloudswift 4 Trainers - Beige - UK 5.5

The Cloudswift 4 is best suited for shorter to medium distances. For marathon distances, On Running offers models with more extensive cushioning and long-distance specific features.

The mesh upper offers some protection, but the shoes are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in wet feet. For very wet conditions, consider waterproof footwear options.

There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the foot, with no pinching or excessive heel slippage.

The Cloudswift 4 is an updated version featuring advancements in midsole foam (Helion), updated cushioning technology (CloudTec), and potentially refined upper construction for improved comfort and performance compared to previous Cloudswift models.

It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 500-800 kilometers (300-500 miles) or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning or support, or visible wear and tear on the outsole and upper.

The standard fit is designed for average width feet. If you have particularly wide feet, it's advisable to try them on in person or look for specific wide-fit models if available, as the Cloudswift 4 is generally a standard width.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces and re-tying them, adjusting the tension across the foot. If still uncomfortable, consider a half-size larger or a different model.

The cushioning may feel less responsive after significant use. For optimal performance, consider replacing the shoes after approximately 500-800 kilometers of running, or when noticeable wear and loss of cushioning occurs.

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, performance on very wet or slippery surfaces can be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris for best results.
