FAQs
What type of training are these shoes best suited for?
The Cloud X 4 Trainers are ideal for high-intensity interval training (HIIT), cross-training, gym workouts, and activities involving multi-lateral movements such as squat jumps and mountain climbers.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they offer cushioning for short bursts, they are primarily designed for training and agility. For dedicated long-distance running, you might consider specialized running shoes from On Running.
How do I clean my Cloud X 4 Trainers?
Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Clean the sole with a damp cloth or soft brush. Allow them to air dry completely away from heat.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The heel-to-toe drop is 7mm.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is made from recycled polyester, designed for breathability and comfort.
How does the star lacing system help?
The star lacing system, combined with the midfoot cage, provides a secure and adaptable fit that enhances stability, particularly during lateral movements.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The trainers weigh approximately 226g.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Adjust the lacing using the star lacing system for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
Slipping during lateral movements
Ensure the midfoot cage and lacing system are adequately tightened to secure the foot. Check the rubber outsole for wear and tear; if heavily worn, traction may be reduced.
Feet feel hot or sweaty
The breathable mesh upper is designed for airflow. However, consider wearing moisture-wicking socks made from synthetic materials or wool blends.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and debris. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
- 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.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
