FAQs

What does 'WP' in the product name stand for?

'WP' stands for Waterproof, indicating that these trainers feature a waterproof membrane to keep your feet dry and protected in wet conditions.

Are these trainers suitable for serious running?

While the On Cloud 6 WP trainers offer excellent cushioning and stability for active use, they are primarily optimized for all-day comfort, light activities, and urban exploration in varied weather. For dedicated, high-performance running, On offers other specialized models.

How do I clean my On Cloud 6 WP trainers?

Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid harsh chemicals, machine washing, or direct heat for drying, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and materials. Air dry them naturally.

What is ZeroGravity CloudTec?

`ZeroGravity CloudTec` refers to On's proprietary sole technology. It uses individual 'Cloud' elements made from lightweight `ZeroGravity foam` that compress upon impact to provide soft cushioning and then lock firm for a powerful push-off, offering a unique 'running on clouds' sensation.

Are these trainers true to size?

On trainers generally run true to size. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size. The updated heel construction and wider entrance are designed to accommodate a comfortable fit.

Can I wear these trainers in snowy conditions?

The waterproof membrane will protect your feet from melting snow and slush. However, while the connected pods on the outsole offer enhanced wet weather grip, these trainers are not specifically designed for deep snow or icy conditions where specialized winter footwear with aggressive treads would be more appropriate.

Troubleshooting

My feet feel too warm or sweaty.

While waterproof trainers offer protection, they can sometimes limit breathability. Try wearing moisture-wicking socks to help manage sweat and improve comfort. Ensure your trainers are properly sized to prevent excessive friction.

The trainers make a squeaking sound while I walk.

New shoes can sometimes squeak as materials settle. Check the outsole for any small debris lodged in the `CloudTec` pods. If the squeaking persists, it might resolve itself after a break-in period. Ensure your laces aren't too tight, which can sometimes contribute to friction sounds.

Waterproofing seems less effective over time.

Ensure the trainers are clean; accumulated dirt and oils can sometimes mask the waterproof membrane's performance. Clean them gently as per the care instructions. Avoid prolonged submersion in water, as no shoe is 100% impervious under extreme conditions.

Compatibility

These trainers are compatible with a wide range of activities, including daily wear, urban commuting, light athletic pursuits, and walking on varied terrains. Their waterproof nature makes them particularly suitable for use in damp or rainy weather. They are designed for adult males, with this specific variant being UK size 8.5.

Care

To ensure the longevity and performance of your waterproof trainers, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush when dry. For tougher grime, use a damp cloth with mild soap and lukewarm water to wipe down the exterior. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbers, which can damage the waterproof membrane and outer materials.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can degrade the waterproof membrane and adhesives. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: While the membrane is durable, dirt and oil can sometimes reduce its effectiveness. Regular gentle cleaning helps maintain performance. There is no specific re-waterproofing required for the internal membrane, but ensuring the outer fabric is clean is key.
  4. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
