FAQs

Are the On Running Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes suitable for trail running?

While these shoes offer excellent traction and waterproofing for varied conditions, they are primarily designed for road running, city errands, and light outdoor adventures. For technical or rugged trail running, a dedicated trail running shoe might offer more aggressive lug patterns and rock protection.

How do the speed laces differ from traditional laces?

Speed laces allow for quick, one-pull tightening and easy release, providing a consistent, secure fit across the foot without needing to tie and untie knots. This saves time and ensures your laces won't come undone during activity.

What does 'bio-attributed Zero-Gravity foam' mean?

This refers to the midsole foam technology that delivers lightweight cushioning. 'Bio-attributed' indicates that a portion of the materials used in the foam's construction are derived from renewable sources, contributing to a more sustainable product.

Can I remove the sockliner if I prefer my own orthotics?

Yes, the new sockliner is typically removable, allowing you to insert your custom orthotics if preferred. Ensure your orthotics fit properly within the shoe's updated internal dimensions.

What's the best way to maintain the waterproof quality?

Regularly clean off dirt and mud with a damp cloth to prevent membrane blockage. Air dry them thoroughly after each use, especially if they've been wet. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, which can compromise the waterproof treatment.

Is the wider opening suitable for narrow feet?

The wider opening is designed to improve overall comfort and ease of entry. For users with narrow feet, the speed laces allow for significant tightening to achieve a secure fit, but some may still prefer a shoe with a naturally narrower last.

Troubleshooting

My feet still feel wet after running in rain.

While the shoes are waterproof, water can enter from the top opening if exposed to deep puddles or heavy rain without additional protection like gaiters. Ensure socks aren't wicking water from your legs into the shoe. Check the shoe's surface for any signs of damage to the waterproof membrane.

The speed laces feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the tension of the speed laces. Pull the laces firmly to tighten and use the quick-release mechanism to loosen. It may take a few tries to find the ideal tension that provides a secure yet comfortable fit without restricting blood flow or feeling too slack.

The shoe feels less cushioned or supportive over time.

Over time, all running shoes experience wear and tear, including compression of cushioning materials. Ensure the shoes are clean, as dirt buildup can sometimes affect flexibility. If the shoes have significant mileage, consider that cushioning materials like the Zero-Gravity foam and CloudTec® may degrade, indicating it might be time for a replacement.

My feet feel warmer or less breathable than expected.

Waterproof shoes inherently reduce breathability compared to non-waterproof models due to the membrane. This is a trade-off for keeping your feet dry. For warmer weather, consider wearing thinner, moisture-wicking socks to help manage internal temperature and moisture.

The grip on wet surfaces seems inconsistent.

The rubber outsole is designed for total traction. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of embedded debris, mud, or small stones, which can reduce grip. Evaluate the surface; extreme conditions like ice or slick moss can challenge any outsole's traction.

  • Wider Opening: While beneficial for comfort, the wider opening might not suit all foot shapes equally.
  • Info needed: Breathability compared to non-waterproof models in very warm conditions.
  • Material Specificity: Primarily polyester material for the upper may have different wear characteristics than other common running shoe materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

  1. Lacing: The Cloud 6 Waterproof features speed laces. To tighten, simply pull the end of the laces until the desired snugness is achieved. To loosen, press the release mechanism on the lacing system and adjust. Ensure an even tension across your foot for optimal comfort and support.
  2. First Fit: When first wearing, take a short walk to assess the fit. The new sockliner and wider opening are designed for easier step-in and enhanced comfort.

Compatibility

  • Activities: Ideal for running in wet or damp conditions, daily walks, urban commutes, and general training. Their waterproof nature makes them suitable for outdoor adventures where moisture is a concern.
  • Weather: Designed for all-weather use, specifically performing best in wet, rainy, or snowy conditions due to the waterproof membrane.
  • Foot Type: The wider opening and new sockliner aim to accommodate a broader range of foot types, providing improved comfort.

Care

  1. Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy or wet conditions, wipe the shoes clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
  2. Drying: Always air dry your Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
  3. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the outsole for embedded debris. The polyester upper material is durable but regular cleaning will extend its life.
