The On Running Cloudswift 4 AD is engineered for daily running, providing a versatile experience for urban athletes. The dual-density Helion superfoam midsole ensures that each stride is met with soft impact absorption, protecting your joints during longer runs or frequent use on hard surfaces. The nylon-blend Speedboard acts as a spring, translating impact energy into forward propulsion, which helps maintain a lively pace and reduces fatigue. The water-repellent mesh upper makes these shoes a reliable choice for variable weather, allowing you to maintain your running schedule even on damp days. The updated cage construction integrates with the sock-like bootie for a secure, supportive fit that adapts to your foot's movement without feeling restrictive. The grippy rubber outsole provides confidence on city streets, sidewalks, and light park paths. These shoes are best suited for neutral runners looking for a comfortable, responsive, and weather-ready trainer for their daily mileage.
Setting up your Cloudswift 4 AD shoes is straightforward. Simply slip them on; the sock-like bootie construction will provide a snug, comfortable fit. Adjust the laces to your desired tension to secure your foot without restricting circulation. We recommend a short walk before your first run to allow your feet to adapt to the shoe's unique cushioning and support.
These shoes are designed as everyday running trainers and are compatible with standard athletic socks. Their neutral support profile makes them suitable for most foot types. They pair well with typical running apparel for various weather conditions, from breathable shorts and t-shirts to water-resistant running jackets.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Cloudswift 4 ADs:
Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the textile and synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. For stubborn spots, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the water-repellent finish and adhesives.
Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush (an old toothbrush works well) to remove mud and debris from the grippy rubber outsole.
Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can degrade materials. Do not put them in a dryer.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
