FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all types of running?
The Cloudmonster Void Trainers are best suited for daily training, long runs, and recovery runs where maximum cushioning and comfort are prioritized. While they can handle varied paces, they are not specifically designed for speed work or racing due to their high stack cushioning.
What is CloudTec® technology?
CloudTec® is On Running's patented cushioning system, featuring individual 'cloud' elements that compress horizontally and vertically upon impact, providing a soft landing. They then lock firm for a powerful push-off, delivering an energetic and responsive ride.
How do I choose the correct size?
On Running shoes generally run true to size. We recommend trying them on at the end of the day when your feet are slightly swollen, and ensuring there's about a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Can I use these trainers for cross-training or gym workouts?
While comfortable, their elevated chunky sole and focus on forward propulsion make them less ideal for lateral movements or heavy lifting in the gym. For cross-training, a shoe with a flatter, more stable sole might be more appropriate.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
The lifespan of running shoes varies depending on individual running style, mileage, body weight, and care. Typically, running shoes last between 300-500 miles (500-800 km). Monitor the cushioning and outsole wear for signs that they need replacing.
How do I clean my Cloudmonster Void Trainers?
Gently brush off loose dirt. Use a soft cloth or brush with mild soap and cold water for stains. Do NOT machine wash or use harsh chemicals. Air dry away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel sore or uncomfortable after wearing
Ensure you have the correct size. Try different lacing patterns to relieve pressure points. Allow for a break-in period. If discomfort persists, consult a running specialist to confirm these shoes are suitable for your foot type and gait.
Shoes feel too bulky or heavy during runs
The Cloudmonster Void is designed with significant cushioning, which adds to its profile. This sensation often diminishes with continued wear as you adapt. If you prefer a lighter, more minimalist feel, this model may not be the best long-term fit for your preference.
Sole seems to wear out quickly in specific areas
Sole wear patterns can indicate aspects of your running gait. Ensure you're not dragging your feet. Regular rotation with other running shoes can also extend the lifespan of each pair. If wear is unusually rapid, consider having your gait analyzed by a professional.
Shoes develop an odor
Always air out your shoes after each run. Remove insoles to allow them to dry completely. If odor persists, use an athletic shoe deodorizer or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight, then shake it out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup and Break-in
The Cloudmonster Void Trainers typically require minimal break-in due to their flexible upper and cushioned sole. We recommend:
- First Wear: Wear them casually for short periods to allow the shoe to mold to your foot shape.
- Short Runs: Begin with shorter, easy runs before tackling longer distances. This helps both your feet and the shoes adapt.
- Lacing: Experiment with different lacing techniques to find the most secure and comfortable fit for your foot.
Compatibility
These trainers are generally compatible with a wide range of foot types due to their neutral design and generous cushioning.
- Running Style: Best suited for neutral runners or those who use mild orthotics.
- Terrain: Primarily designed for road running and light track use. Avoid highly technical trails to preserve the sole's integrity and avoid potential instability with the high stack.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the lifespan of your Cloudmonster Void Trainers:
- Cleaning:
- Upper: Gently brush off loose dirt. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth or brush with mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Sole: Rinse off mud and debris from the sole with water. A soft brush can help remove embedded particles.
- Do NOT Machine Wash: Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and the structural integrity of the shoe.
- Drying:
- Air dry at room temperature. Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb excess moisture and maintain their shape.
- Keep away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, tumble dryers) as this can degrade materials and cause shrinkage.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This prevents material degradation and odor buildup.
- Insoles: Remove insoles to air out after very sweaty runs to prevent odor and mildew growth.
