The On Running Cloudmonster Void Trainers in Grey are engineered for adult runners seeking maximum cushioning and a powerful, propulsive ride. Featuring advanced Helion superfoam, CloudTec cushioning, and a powerful Speedboard, they deliver exceptional comfort and kinetic liftoff for an enhanced running experience.

The On Running Cloudmonster Void Trainers are built to excel in a variety of running scenarios, making them a go-to choice for runners who prioritize cushioning and energy return. Their design focuses on providing a 'max-cushioned' experience, ideal for:
Long-Distance Training: The Helion superfoam and CloudTec cushioning work together to absorb impact effectively, reducing fatigue during extensive runs, such as marathons or half-marathon training.
Daily Runs: For everyday mileage, these trainers offer consistent comfort and protection, allowing you to maintain your training schedule without excessive strain on your joints.
Recovery Runs: The plush cushioning helps to ease the impact on your body after intense workouts, making them suitable for slower, recovery-focused efforts.
Road Running: The outsole design and cushioning system are optimized for hard surfaces like asphalt and pavement, providing reliable grip and shock absorption.
Runners can expect a smooth, propulsive ride, where each stride feels energized thanks to the integrated Speedboard. The breathable haptic mesh upper ensures feet remain comfortable even during warmer conditions or prolonged activity, preventing overheating and discomfort. Whether you're logging serious mileage or simply enjoying a comfortable run, these trainers are designed to enhance your experience.
To get the most out of your On Running Cloudmonster Void Trainers, understanding their setup, compatibility, and proper care is essential.
Lacing: Ensure proper lacing to achieve an optimal fit. Start with a snug but not tight lace-up from the toe box, allowing your foot to flex naturally. Experiment with different lacing patterns if you experience pressure points.
Socks: Wear appropriate running socks that wick moisture to prevent blisters and enhance comfort, maximizing the shoe's breathability.
Break-in Period: While comfortable from the start, allow a few short runs (e.g., 2-3 miles) for the shoes to fully conform to your foot's unique shape and for the cushioning to activate optimally.
Running Surfaces: Best suited for road running, including pavement, asphalt, and track surfaces. They can handle light, well-maintained gravel paths but are not designed for technical trail running.
Foot Strike: The design supports various foot strike patterns, offering cushioning and propulsion whether you're a heel striker or land more on your midfoot.
Activity Type: Primarily designed for running, from daily training to long-distance efforts. Less suitable for activities requiring extensive lateral movement or court sports.
Proper care extends the lifespan and maintains the performance of your trainers:
Cleaning the Upper (Textile & Synthetic): Gently wipe dirt and debris with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Cleaning Suede Sections: Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and protector are recommended. Avoid excessive water on suede.
Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or old toothbrush with mild soap and water to remove mud and grit from the outsole. Rinse thoroughly.
Drying: Air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Remove insoles occasionally to air out the shoes and prevent odor buildup.
Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and adhesives. Hand cleaning is always recommended.
