The On Running Cloudmonster Void Trainers are built to transform your running experience, especially if you prioritize cushioning and a lively feel. The core of their performance lies in the CloudTec technology, which features large 'Cloud' elements that compress upon impact to absorb vertical and horizontal forces. As you push off, these elements lock together, providing a firm platform for a powerful toe-off, translating into a noticeable bounce and forward propulsion.
These trainers are particularly well-suited for:
Daily Training: Their superior cushioning makes them an excellent choice for your everyday runs, protecting your joints and reducing fatigue over consistent mileage.
Long Distance Runs: The high level of comfort and impact absorption helps maintain freshness in your legs during extended efforts, allowing you to go further with less strain.
Recovery Runs: When your legs need a break but you still want to get miles in, the soft ride can be highly beneficial for a comfortable recovery pace.
While optimized for running, their distinctive style and comfort also make them a popular choice for casual wear and light walking, offering a comfortable experience throughout your day.
Remember that individual running form and biomechanics can influence how a shoe feels and performs. Allow for a short break-in period to let the shoes adapt to your feet.
Using your Cloudmonster Void Trainers is straightforward:
Lacing: Ensure laces are securely tied, providing a snug but comfortable fit that prevents your foot from sliding inside the shoe. Avoid overtightening, which can cause pressure points.
Initial Wear: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the shoe to mold to your foot and for you to adapt to the unique feel of the CloudTec cushioning.
These trainers are primarily designed for:
Running: Optimized for road running, paved paths, and light track use.
Casual Wear: Their comfort and style make them suitable for everyday use.
They are compatible with standard running socks and athletic apparel.
Proper care extends the life and maintains the performance of your trainers. For the Cloudmonster Void Trainers with Suede material (for this specific variant):
Cleaning the Upper (Suede):
Brush off loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush (a dedicated suede brush is ideal).
For stains, gently dab with a clean cloth lightly dampened with water and a mild suede cleaner. Avoid saturating the material.
Allow to air dry completely, away from direct heat or sunlight.
Once dry, use the suede brush to restore the nap.
Avoid machine washing as it can damage the suede and adhesives.
Cleaning the Outsole:
Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and warm, soapy water to remove dirt and debris from the rubber sole.
Rinse with a damp cloth and air dry.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers naturally. Never put them in a dryer or expose them to direct heat, which can warp materials and damage adhesives.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Odor Control: Remove insoles to air out after runs, and consider using shoe deodorizers if needed.
