Getting started with your On Running Cloud 6 Waterproof trainers is straightforward:

Step-in Comfort: The wider opening and new sockliner are designed for an easy step-in. Ensure your foot is properly seated within the shoe.
These trainers are designed for:
Age Group: Adults.
Gender: Primarily marketed for men, but their comfortable fit can appeal to anyone seeking these features.
Activities: Ideal for daily wear, urban exploration, walking, and training in various weather conditions, particularly wet environments.
Surfaces: Optimized for road and mixed urban terrains, with enhanced grip for wet surfaces.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your waterproof trainers:
Cleaning:
Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth immediately after use.
For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with water and gently scrub the affected areas with a soft cloth or brush.
Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
Rinse with clean water (if using soap) and allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight.
Drying: If the inside of the shoes gets wet (e.g., from sweat or water entering from the top), you can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and speed up drying.
Waterproof Treatment: Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on the outer fabric may wear off. While the internal membrane remains waterproof, you can apply a DWR spray designed for footwear to the outer material to help water bead off more effectively.
