Extended Product Information

The On Cloudrunner 2 trainers are engineered to provide a balanced and supportive running experience, making them an excellent choice for a variety of running activities. The combination of the CloudTec midsole and Zero-Gravity foam ensures a soft landing and responsive toe-off, absorbing impact efficiently and reducing strain on your joints. This makes them particularly well-suited for daily training runs, recovery runs, and longer distances where sustained comfort is key. The integrated Speedboard actively converts impact energy into forward momentum, giving you a noticeable 'push' that can help maintain pace and reduce fatigue over time. The grippy rubber outsole offers reliable traction, making them suitable for road running and well-maintained paths. For optimal performance, ensure your laces are tied securely but not too tightly to allow for natural foot expansion during your run. They are designed for a smooth ride and can help maintain form over extended periods. For example, during a 10k run, the cushioning will consistently support your stride, while the Speedboard assists in maintaining an efficient gait, helping you to conserve energy.

Setup: Getting Started with Your Cloudrunner 2 Trainers 1. Lacing: Ensure you use a lacing technique that provides a snug fit without being overly tight. Experiment with different patterns if you experience pressure points. A common method is the standard criss-cross, but you might consider heel-lock lacing for added security. 2. Initial Wear: Wear your new trainers for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the cushioning and fit. While On shoes often feel comfortable immediately, a brief break-in period is always advisable. 3. Sock Choice: Pair your Cloudrunner 2 trainers with high-quality running socks that wick moisture away to enhance breathability and prevent blisters. ## Compatibility: Best Use Scenarios The Cloudrunner 2 trainers are primarily designed for road running and light, well-maintained trails. Their cushioning system and traction are optimized for these surfaces. They are suitable for runners who prioritize comfort, impact protection, and a responsive feel in their daily training. ## Care: Maintaining Your Trainers To ensure the longevity and performance of your On Cloudrunner 2 trainers: 1. Cleaning: - Spot Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a small amount of mild soap diluted in water. Gently scrub the affected areas. - Deep Cleaning: For more significant dirt, remove the insoles and laces. Hand wash the shoes in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid submerging the entire shoe for extended periods. - Drying: Air dry your trainers away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), as excessive heat can damage materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape. 2. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can degrade materials. 3. Rotate Shoes: If you run frequently, consider rotating your Cloudrunner 2 with other running shoes. This allows the cushioning to fully decompress and extend the lifespan of each pair.
