FAQs

How should I clean my On Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes?

Gently clean your shoes with a soft brush or a damp cloth using mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing, harsh detergents, or direct heat sources like dryers, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and materials. Always air dry naturally.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

Yes, the Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes are suitable for light to moderate trail running, especially in wet conditions, thanks to their waterproof membrane and traction-focused rubber outsole. For extremely rugged or technical trails, a dedicated trail running shoe with more aggressive lugs might be preferred.

What is CloudTec cushioning?

CloudTec is On Running's patented cushioning technology, featuring individual 'cloud' elements on the sole. These clouds compress upon impact to provide a soft landing and then lock firm to create a powerful, explosive take-off, offering an adaptive and responsive running experience.

What is the Speedboard in these shoes?

The Speedboard is a liquid-injected plate located between the midsole and the upper. Its purpose is to stabilize your foot and efficiently convert the energy from impact into forward propulsion, helping you achieve a faster and more efficient stride.

Can I replace the speed laces with traditional laces?

While the shoes are designed for the integrated speed lacing system, it might be possible to replace them with traditional laces. However, this could alter the intended fit and feel of the shoe. For specific recommendations, it's best to consult On Running's customer support.

Are these waterproof shoes still breathable?

The waterproof membrane is highly effective at keeping water out, which inherently reduces the overall breathability compared to non-waterproof running shoes. On Running strives to balance waterproofing with ventilation, but you may notice they feel warmer in very hot conditions than their non-waterproof counterparts.

Troubleshooting

My feet are still getting wet when running in rain.

Ensure the shoe's collar is snug around your ankle to prevent water from entering over the top. Check the upper for any visible tears or damage to the waterproof membrane. While waterproof, these shoes are not designed for deep submersion, so water may enter if you step into very deep puddles.

The speed laces feel either too tight or too loose during my run.

To adjust the speed laces, pull the laces to tighten the shoe. To loosen, press the small release button on the lace toggle and slide it along the laces. Experiment with the tension before your run to find the optimal balance between a secure and comfortable fit.

I'm experiencing discomfort or less cushioning than before.

Running shoes have a lifespan, typically between 300-500 miles, after which the cushioning and support can degrade. If you're beyond this mileage, it might be time to replace your shoes. Ensure you're allowing the shoes to air dry completely after each use to maintain material integrity.

I'm slipping on wet surfaces despite the rubber outsole.

While the durable rubber outsole offers total traction, extreme conditions (e.g., black ice, very slick moss, or smooth, wet rocks) can still present challenges. Ensure the outsole tread is clean of debris. If the tread is significantly worn down, the grip will be reduced, and the shoes may need to be replaced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • All-Weather Performance: Excellent waterproofing keeps feet dry in rainy or wet conditions.
  • Quick Custom Fit: Speed laces allow for rapid and secure adjustments.
  • Enhanced Comfort: New sockliner ensures lasting comfort, crucial for long distances.
  • Responsive Ride: CloudTec cushioning combined with Speedboard offers a dynamic and energetic running experience.
  • Reliable Grip: Durable rubber outsole provides confident traction on diverse surfaces.

Cons

  • Reduced Breathability: The waterproof membrane may make the shoes feel warmer than non-waterproof variants in hot weather.
  • Specific Use Case: Primarily designed for running, limiting their versatility for other activities like heavy-duty hiking.
  • Care Requirements: Requires specific cleaning and drying methods to maintain waterproofing and material integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your On Running Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes is designed to be simple and quick:

  1. Unpack: Carefully remove the shoes from their packaging.
  2. Lacing Adjustment: The integrated speed laces allow for fast, precise fitting. Pull on the laces to tighten the shoe for a snug feel. To loosen, press the small button on the lace toggle and adjust the laces. Ensure a secure yet comfortable fit without excessive pressure points.
  3. Initial Wear: While On shoes are often comfortable immediately, it's advisable to wear them for shorter distances during your first few outings. This allows the shoes to adapt to your foot's unique contours and ensures optimal comfort for longer runs.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed to meet the needs of specific users and activities:

  • Gender: Male (Adult)
  • Activity: Primarily suited for running, including road running, urban runs, and light to moderate trail running.
  • Conditions: Ideal for wet weather conditions, offering protection from rain, puddles, and damp surfaces.
  • Terrain: Performs well on various surfaces such as pavement, gravel paths, and non-technical dirt trails.

Care

Proper care is essential to maintain the performance, longevity, and waterproof integrity of your Cloud 6 Waterproof shoes:

  1. Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy or wet conditions, gently clean off dirt and debris. Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild, cold soapy water. Avoid using harsh detergents, bleach, or hot water, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
  2. Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use direct heat sources like radiators, hair dryers, or direct sunlight, as intense heat can degrade the adhesives, materials, and compromise the waterproofing. Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid storing them in damp or confined spaces.
  4. Water Immersion: While waterproof, the shoes are not designed for full immersion. Water can still enter through the ankle opening if submerged above the shoe line.
  5. Regular Inspection: Periodically check the outsole for wear and tear and the upper for any signs of damage that might affect the waterproofing or overall performance.
