FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
They feature a durable water-repellent (DWR) layer which makes them water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof for submersion.
Can I use these for running?
While capable of light activity, they are primarily designed as versatile lifestyle trainers. For dedicated long-distance running, an On performance-specific model may be better suited.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to gently wipe the mesh. Avoid scrubbing vigorously to maintain the integrity of the material.
Does the toggle lacing provide enough support?
Yes, it is designed for a secure, locked-in feel. If you prefer a tighter fit, simply adjust the toggle higher up the lace line.
Are these shoes heavy?
No, they are constructed from ultra-lightweight mesh materials to minimize weight and enhance comfort.
Where is the sizing indicated?
The size is typically found on the tongue label or the box, specifically measured in UK sizing units.
Troubleshooting
Toggle lace feels loose
Ensure the lace lock mechanism is fully clicked into place and the cord is not obstructed by debris.
Water repellency seems less effective
The DWR coating may wear off over time. You can apply a standard fabric-safe DWR spray to restore the water-shedding properties.
Laces are too long
Tuck excess cordage under the secondary cross-laces on the tongue to prevent them from catching on objects while walking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Cloudaway 2 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Utilize the toggle system by sliding the adjuster to achieve your preferred tension. Ensure the tongue is centered before pulling the toggle tight to avoid pressure points.
- Compatibility: These are unisex-inspired performance trainers, though specific sizing is categorized by UK measurements. Ensure you check your current UK shoe size prior to selection.
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a soft-bristled brush and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the water-repellent coating and mesh fibers.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause the rubber or mesh to warp.
