FAQs

Are these shoes truly waterproof?

Yes, the On Running Cloud 6 features a waterproof upper designed to keep your feet dry in rainy and wet conditions. They are not designed for full submersion but will protect against rain and splashes.

What kind of running are these shoes best for?

These trainers are ideal for road running, urban runs, and daily training, especially in wet or damp weather conditions. Their cushioning and responsiveness also make them suitable for longer distances.

What is the '8mm drop'?

The 8mm drop refers to the difference in height between the heel and the toe of the shoe. This specific offset is preferred by many runners as it can encourage a more natural and efficient stride.

How should I clean my Cloud 6 Waterproof trainers?

Wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Never put them in a washing machine or tumble dryer.

Do I need to treat them to maintain waterproofing?

The shoes come with an integrated waterproof membrane. Regular cleaning and proper drying will help maintain their integrity. Info needed: Consult On Running's specific recommendations for long-term waterproof care or re-treatment.

How does the 'Zero-Gravity CloudTec' midsole work?

The CloudTec elements compress upon impact, providing soft cushioning, and then lock firm for a powerful and responsive take-off, creating a 'running on clouds' sensation.

Troubleshooting

My feet are getting wet despite the waterproof claim.

Ensure your socks are not drawing water in from the ankle opening. Check for any tears or damage to the waterproof upper that might have occurred. Ensure the shoes are correctly sized; a poor fit can lead to water ingress around the collar.

The shoes feel less breathable than expected.

Waterproof membranes inherently reduce breathability to some extent. This is normal for waterproof footwear. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks to help manage internal moisture.

The cushioning feels less responsive over time.

Running shoes have a lifespan, and cushioning can degrade with accumulated mileage. Ensure you are allowing the shoes to fully dry out between runs. If the shoes are old or have high mileage, it might be time for a replacement.

I'm experiencing discomfort or rubbing.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. Check your lacing technique; sometimes adjusting the tension can resolve discomfort. Allow for a break-in period, as new shoes can take a few runs to conform to your feet. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size and width.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing for all-weather running.
  • Superior cushioning and responsiveness for comfortable performance.
  • Comfortable fit with a wider opening.
  • Durable construction for prolonged use.

Cons

  • May offer reduced breathability compared to non-waterproof models in very warm conditions.
  • The 8mm drop might not suit all running biomechanics or preferences.
  • Wider opening might not provide the snug fit desired by runners with very narrow feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

There is no complex setup required for your On Running Cloud 6 Waterproof trainers. Simply unlace them to your comfort, slide your feet in, and lace them up securely. Ensure the lacing is snug but not overly tight, allowing for natural foot movement without slippage.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for *road running* and *urban environments*, particularly in *wet weather conditions*. They are compatible with various running surfaces like asphalt, concrete, and light gravel. Their waterproof feature makes them ideal for use in rain, snow, or damp conditions where keeping feet dry is crucial.

Care

To ensure the longevity and performance of your waterproof trainers, proper care is essential:

  1. Cleaning: After each run, especially in wet or muddy conditions, gently wipe down the upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
  2. Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Remove the insoles to help them dry faster. Never expose them to direct heat sources like radiators, heaters, or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials and adhesives, compromising the waterproof integrity. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  3. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in damp environments, which can lead to mold or mildew.
  4. Waterproof Maintenance: While designed to be durable, regular cleaning and proper drying help maintain the waterproof properties over time. Info needed: Specific recommendations for re-waterproofing treatments if applicable.
  5. Laces and Insoles: Periodically wash laces separately or replace them if they become worn. Insoles can also be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried to maintain freshness.
