Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are the On Cloud 6 WP suitable for serious running or trail hiking?
The On Cloud 6 WP is primarily designed for all-day comfort, urban wear, and light outdoor activities in varied weather conditions. While they offer excellent cushioning and support for walking and daily movement, they are not specialized running shoes for high-intensity training or rugged trail hiking. For dedicated running or difficult terrain, On offers other specific models.
Can I machine wash my On Cloud 6 WP shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended. The harsh detergents, agitation, and high temperatures can damage the waterproof membrane, adhesives, and material integrity. It's best to clean them by hand using a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap, then air dry them away from direct heat.
What does 'Zero-Gravity CloudTec®' mean?
'Zero-Gravity CloudTec®' refers to On's proprietary cushioning technology. It uses lightweight foam 'clouds' that compress upon impact to provide a soft landing, then lock together to form a firm foundation for a powerful push-off. This creates a sensation of lightness and responsiveness, akin to walking on air.
Are these shoes suitable for people with wider feet?
Yes, the On Cloud 6 WP features a wider opening and an upgraded insole/sockliner, which are designed to provide a more inclusive and comfortable fit for a broader range of foot shapes, including those that might be slightly wider.
How long does the waterproof feature typically last?
The integrated waterproof membrane is designed to be durable and effective for the life of the shoe under normal use. To maintain its integrity, avoid harsh cleaning chemicals, machine washing, and direct heat when drying. Proper care will help ensure the waterproofing remains effective.
What sustainability features do these shoes have?
The On Cloud 6 WP incorporates several sustainable elements: the midsole uses bio-attributed Zero-Gravity foam made with renewable materials like waste cooking oil, selected colorways are dope-dyed to reduce water usage, and the upper contains recycled polyester and TPU. These features contribute to a reduced environmental footprint.
What is the benefit of the Speedboard®?
The Speedboard® is a liquid-injected plate located between the CloudTec® elements and the upper. Its primary benefit is to provide efficient energy transfer and stability. It flexes with your foot, offering a smooth rolling motion and propulsion, making each step feel more natural and responsive for all-day performance.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet despite waterproof membrane.
- Ensure water is not entering from the top (e.g., deep puddles over the ankle, rain entering from pant leg). 2. Check if socks are made of moisture-wicking material; cotton socks can retain sweat. 3. Clean the shoe's exterior to prevent debris from compromising the membrane's integrity.
Cushioning feels less responsive over time.
- Ensure the outsole is clean and free of embedded debris that might affect CloudTec® element compression. 2. Remove insoles and check for any significant wear or compression; consider replacing insoles if very old. 3. While durable, continuous heavy use can lead to natural compression over a very long period.
Shoes feel uncomfortably tight or loose.
- Re-tie laces, ensuring an even tension across the foot. The wider opening allows for adjustability. 2. Check sock thickness; thinner/thicker socks can alter fit. 3. Verify you are wearing the correct size. If you are between sizes, the wider opening might accommodate a half-size up or down depending on preference.
Unpleasant odor developing in shoes.
- Remove insoles after each wear and allow both shoes and insoles to air dry completely. 2. Use anti-odor shoe inserts or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight. 3. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dry if they get wet, as trapped moisture promotes bacterial growth.
