FAQs
Can I use the Cloud X 5 for distance running?
These are primarily fitness trainers. While they are fine for short runs (under 5k), they lack the deep cushioning required for long-distance marathon training.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Cloud X 5 has a performance-oriented fit that is relatively standard; those with significantly wider feet may find the toe box restrictive.
How do I clean the white accents on the Blue/White model?
Use a soft brush and a mixture of water and mild dish soap to spot-clean the white areas, then wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The upper materials are designed for breathability, meaning they are not waterproof and will absorb water in wet conditions.
Can the insoles be replaced?
Yes, the stock insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required for your specific arch support needs.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are adjusted using the eyelets correctly to secure the midfoot, or consider using a runner's loop lacing technique.
Accumulation of debris in the sole
The signature 'Cloud' elements may pick up small stones. Periodically inspect the outsole and use a blunt tool to carefully remove trapped debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your On Cloud X 5 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are true to size; ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front for optimal comfort.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry only in a cool, shaded area. Do not place shoes near heat sources like radiators, as this can warp the midsole material.
- Rotation: If you train daily, consider rotating your shoes to allow the cushioning foam time to decompress between sessions.
