Product Information
Full details
The On Cloudmonster 2 is designed for adult runners seeking maximum cushioning and a propulsive feel for a variety of runs, from 5ks to marathons. Its key benefit is the combination of high cushioning with a speedy sensation, powered by Helion Superfoam and a nylon-blend Speedboard. A potential caveat is that while offering high cushioning, the feel might be different from minimalist shoes, requiring an adjustment period for some runners.

FAQs
What type of runs are the Cloudmonster 2 best suited for?
The Cloudmonster 2 is highly versatile. It excels in high-mileage training, marathon running, tempo runs, and interval sessions due to its maximal cushioning and propulsive feel. It's also comfortable for recovery runs and general road running.
How does the Cloudmonster 2 differ from the original Cloudmonster?
The Cloudmonster 2 features an improved, more sustainable build with increased recycled materials (24% total, 92% in upper), a reworked engineered mesh upper for enhanced feel, and updated eyestays for better lockdown. The midsole still uses dual-density Helion Superfoam and a Speedboard for propulsion.
Is the Cloudmonster 2 suitable for trail running?
These shoes are primarily designed for road running. While they can handle light, well-maintained trails, they lack the aggressive tread and robust protection needed for technical off-road terrain.
What is the stack height and heel-to-toe drop?
The Cloudmonster 2 has a stack height of 35mm at the heel and 29mm at the forefoot, with a heel-to-toe offset of 6mm.
How do I clean my Cloudmonster 2 shoes?
Clean them by hand with cold water and mild soap using a soft brush or cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid machine washing or using direct heat sources for drying.
What is the weight of the Cloudmonster 2?
The On Cloudmonster 2 weighs approximately 230g.
Are these shoes good for pronation control?
The Cloudmonster 2 is a neutral running shoe. It is designed to provide cushioning and support without actively correcting pronation. Runners who require specific stability features might need to consider other models.
Troubleshooting
Slight squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole and ensuring both it and the inside of the shoe are completely dry. A small amount of baby powder under the insole may also help.
Laces come undone easily
Ensure you are tying a secure double knot. If the lace material is particularly smooth, consider trying a different lacing technique or replacing the laces with ones that offer more grip.
Discomfort on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing tension, particularly in the area causing discomfort. Ensure the engineered mesh upper is not bunched up and lies flat against the foot.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
While the Helion Superfoam is durable, its responsiveness may slightly decrease with extensive use and mileage. Ensure the shoes are cleaned regularly and allowed to dry properly to maintain material integrity. If significant degradation is suspected, consider replacement.

Pros
- Excellent cushioning for long-distance comfort

- Comfortable and secure fit due to updated upper and eyestays

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Cloudmonster 2 requires no specific setup beyond lacing them up. Ensure they are comfortably snug but not overly tight to allow for foot expansion during runs.
Compatibility: These shoes are designed primarily for road running. While they can handle light, well-groomed trails, their optimal performance is on pavement and hard surfaces. They are compatible with most standard running socks.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After runs, brush off loose dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with cold water and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can cause materials to degrade.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing in damp conditions or in sealed plastic bags, which can encourage mold growth.
