The On Running Cloudswift 4 AD is designed to excel in daily training and urban running. The updated cage construction ensures your foot remains secure, particularly important during quick turns or uneven city pavements. Its perforated toe box prevents overheating, making it comfortable for longer runs or warmer climates. The shoe's rocker geometry works to smoothly guide your foot from heel strike to toe-off, promoting an efficient and less fatiguing running form. The water-repellent finish offers peace of mind when encountering unexpected puddles or light rain, keeping your feet drier. Underfoot, the combination of dual-density Helion superfoam and the nylon-blend Speedboard provides a unique balance of plush cushioning for impact absorption and powerful energy return, making your runs feel both comfortable and dynamic. These features make the Cloudswift 4 AD an excellent choice for runners seeking a versatile, high-performance shoe for their regular mileage.
The On Running Cloudswift 4 AD requires minimal setup, as it's ready to wear right out of the box. Simply lace them up to achieve a comfortable, snug fit that utilizes the updated cage construction for midfoot lockdown. These shoes are compatible with various running surfaces, particularly well-suited for roads, sidewalks, and light trails due to their cushioning and responsive properties.
Care Instructions:
Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (an old toothbrush works well). For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water mixture. Hand wash the shoes, focusing on soiled areas. Avoid harsh detergents or hot water, as they can damage the materials and adhesives.
Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them in direct sunlight, near heaters, or in a tumble dryer, as excessive heat can deform the materials and compromise the shoe's structure. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.
Storage: Store your Cloudswift 4 AD in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
Maintenance: Regularly check the outsole for embedded debris (like small stones) and remove them to maintain optimal grip and prevent damage.
