Product Information
Full details
The On Cloud 6 WP Trainers are designed for the adult male who needs versatile footwear for urban environments, rain or shine. Their key benefit is offering waterproof protection without compromising on the signature CloudTec cushioning for a comfortable, smooth stride. A potential caveat is that while waterproof, they are best suited for moderate rain and urban conditions, rather than extreme aquatic activities. Key features include a waterproof membrane, CloudTec cushioning, a supportive Speedboard, an easy-entry wider opening, and a durable rubber outsole, all constructed with a focus on sustainable materials.

FAQs
Are these shoes completely submersible?
The On Cloud 6 WP features a waterproof membrane designed to keep your feet dry from rain and splashes in urban environments. They are not designed for submersion or activities like swimming.
How do I best clean the waterproof membrane?
The waterproof membrane is integrated into the shoe's construction. Clean the exterior of the shoe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the membrane or outer materials.
What is the primary advantage of the Speedboard?
The Speedboard is engineered to provide energy return and stability, supporting a natural running or walking motion while ensuring a responsive feel.
Can I wear these for trail running?
While they offer good grip for urban surfaces, the On Cloud 6 WP is primarily designed for city use and wet weather. For technical trail running, specialized trail shoes with more aggressive traction would be more appropriate.
How do the sustainable materials contribute to the shoe?
The use of bio-attributed Zero-Gravity foam in the midsole and recycled materials in the upper reduces the environmental impact of the shoe's production, making it a more sustainable choice.
What makes the opening 'wider'?
The design incorporates a wider collar opening and a new sockliner to make it easier and quicker to slide your foot into the shoe, enhancing convenience.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping into the shoes
Ensure the laces are tied snugly and the tongue is correctly positioned. Check for any visible damage to the waterproof membrane or seams. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane might be compromised, and it may be time to consider replacement.
Reduced cushioning or comfort
Over time, cushioning can compress. Try removing the sockliner and cleaning it separately if it appears dirty. Ensure the shoe is properly fitted. If comfort significantly diminishes, the midsole foam may have reached the end of its lifespan.
Slippery outsole on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides grip, extreme wet conditions can still pose a slip hazard. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris. If the tread appears worn down, it might be time to replace the shoes for optimal traction.
Difficulty with the wider opening
While designed for ease of entry, ensure you are not trying to force your foot in. Use the heel tab and gently guide your foot into the shoe. The new sockliner should aid this process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The On Cloud 6 WP Trainers require no specific setup. Simply unbox them and they are ready for immediate use. Their design prioritizes an easy slip-on experience.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are compatible with various casual and athletic wear. They are best suited for dry, wet, and moderately challenging urban terrains. They are not intended for highly technical outdoor activities.
Care: To maintain the waterproof properties and overall condition of your Cloud 6 WP trainers:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then rinse thoroughly with a clean damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (like radiators or hairdryers) as this can damage the materials and compromise the waterproof membrane. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically, you may consider using a specialized waterproof spray suitable for technical footwear to refresh the water-repellent capabilities of the upper materials, although the primary waterproofing comes from the internal membrane.
