The On Running Cloudswift 4 AD is engineered for dynamic running performance, particularly suited for daily training, tempo runs, and urban environments. Its Helion superfoam top layer provides plush cushioning for absorbing impact during long distances, while the firmer bottom layer ensures a responsive, powerful toe-off, driving you forward efficiently. The improved cage construction keeps your foot securely in place, reducing internal movement and enhancing control, even during quick changes in pace. The engineered mesh upper keeps your feet cool and dry, making it suitable for warmer conditions or intense workouts. The water-repellent finish makes them a reliable choice for runs where you might encounter light showers or damp pavements. For example, during a morning city run, the shoe's propulsion helps maintain a steady pace, and its secure fit provides confidence on varied surfaces.
Simply slip on the Cloudswift 4 AD. The sock-like fit is designed for easy entry while providing a snug and secure feel. Ensure laces are tied comfortably, not too tight, to allow for natural foot expansion during your run.
These trainers are primarily designed for running, offering features that benefit various running styles and distances. They are also suitable for light athletic activities and casual wear due to their comfort and stylish design. The Textile & Synthetic Upper and Synthetic Sole make them versatile for different conditions.
Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap or shoe cleaner diluted with cold water and a soft cloth or brush. Avoid harsh detergents.
Drying: Air dry at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
Water Repellency: While featuring a water-repellent finish, this is not fully waterproof. For prolonged performance in wet conditions, consider applying a shoe-specific water-repellent spray periodically.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity.
Avoid Submersion: Do not fully submerge the shoes in water, especially hot water.
