FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all types of trail running?

These shoes are designed for road running and light trails. For technical or heavily rugged trail conditions, specialized trail running shoes with deeper lugs and more robust uppers might be more appropriate.

Can I machine wash my Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the waterproof membrane and other materials, voiding any potential warranty. Please follow the care instructions for hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What does the '10mm drop' mean?

The '10mm drop' refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot of the shoe. This specific drop is common in many running shoes and can influence your foot strike and overall running gait.

How long does the waterproofing last?

The waterproofing is designed to last the functional lifespan of the shoe. Its durability depends on usage frequency, exposure to harsh conditions, and adherence to proper care instructions. Abrasions or punctures can compromise the waterproof integrity over time.

Are these shoes heavy because they are waterproof?

While waterproof membranes can add some weight, the `Zero-Gravity CloudTec` midsole technology is designed to keep the overall weight as light as possible, providing a cushioned yet agile feel even with the added protection.

What is the best way to dry them if they get soaked inside?

If your shoes get soaked inside, remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with crumpled newspaper to absorb moisture. Replace the newspaper every few hours. Allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight.

Troubleshooting

My feet are still getting wet in the rain.

Ensure the shoes are laced correctly, preventing water entry from the top. Check for any punctures or tears in the waterproof upper. Remember, while waterproof, prolonged submersion or extremely heavy downpours can challenge any waterproof barrier.

The shoes feel less responsive than before.

The `CloudTec` elements can compress over time with extensive use. Consider the mileage on your shoes; running shoes typically last 300-500 miles. Also, ensure the soles are clean from debris that might hinder natural flex.

I'm experiencing discomfort or rubbing.

Check your lacing technique to ensure it's not too tight or too loose. Experiment with different running socks, as their thickness and material can impact fit. If the issue persists, ensure the size is correct; an improper fit is a common cause of discomfort.

The traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces.

Inspect the `durable rubber sole` for excessive wear, especially on high-contact areas. Clean any mud or debris from the sole's grooves, as this can reduce grip. Adjust your running stride on slippery surfaces, shorten your steps, and land with your foot under your center of gravity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent wet weather protection keeps feet dry
  • Responsive and comfortable cushioning for long runs
  • Easy to put on and take off due to wider opening
  • Reliable traction on various surfaces, including wet ones
  • Durable construction designed for consistent performance

  • Primarily designed for running, limiting versatility for other athletic activities
  • The waterproof membrane might add slight stiffness compared to standard mesh uppers

Setup and First Use 1. Sizing: Ensure you select the correct UK shoe size (UK 10.5 for this specific model). Consider trying them on with your usual running socks to get an accurate fit. 2. Lacing: Utilize the lacing system to secure your foot snugly without overtightening, which could cause discomfort. The wider opening facilitates easy entry. 3. Break-in Period: While often comfortable from the start, some runners prefer a short break-in period of a few lighter runs before tackling longer distances. ### Compatibility These shoes are designed primarily for male runners seeking performance in wet weather conditions. They are suitable for various running terrains including roads, pavements, and light trails. ### Care and Maintenance * Cleaning: After runs in mud or dirt, gently wipe the `textile & synthetic upper` with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and materials. * Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can deform the shoe materials and compromise the waterproof integrity. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain shape. * Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are fully dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
