FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The Cloudpulse 2 is designed for HIIT and circuit training, prioritizing stability and reactivity. While they offer some cushioning, they are not optimized for the demands of long-distance running. For marathon training, consider specialized running shoes.
How do I clean the breathable upper material?
Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush, then rinse lightly and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing.
What is the heel-toe drop of the Cloudpulse 2?
The heel-toe drop is 8mm.
Can I wear these for general gym workouts like weightlifting?
Yes, the stability features, including the Focusboard™ and wider toe box, make them suitable for weightlifting and functional fitness exercises where a stable base is important.
How does the Missiongrip™ technology work?
Missiongrip™ utilizes a combination of outsole patterns and rubber compounds to provide multi-directional traction, ensuring a secure hold on various indoor and outdoor training surfaces.
What makes the toe box wider?
The wider toe box is intentionally designed to allow for natural toe splay during movements, enhancing stability and ergonomic comfort, especially during exercises that require a solid foundation.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are properly adjusted, not tied too tightly. The wider toe box allows for natural foot expansion; try lacing them to accommodate this. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is correct or if break-in time is needed.
Lack of grip on certain surfaces
Ensure the Missiongrip™ outsole is clean and free from debris. Grit or moisture can reduce traction. For persistent issues on very smooth or wet surfaces, acknowledge the limitations of any training shoe.
Heel slippage
Adjust the lacing system, focusing on a secure fit around the ankle. The extra heel padding is designed to lock the heel in; ensure it's seated correctly. If slippage continues, the shoe's fit profile might not match your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply lace them up and adjust for a comfortable, secure fit.
Compatibility: Designed for a wide range of training activities including HIIT, circuit training, functional fitness, and gym workouts. They are not primarily designed for road running or trail running.
Care:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
