How to Clean On Cloudmonster Sneakers | Mesh Running Shoe Guide

Running shoes like the On Cloudmonster are designed for performance, but let’s be real—after 30 days of workouts, errands, and trail runs, they’re gonna look wrecked. That all-white mesh? A dirt magnet.

 

In this episode of Shoe Care Academy, Reshoevn8r’s Social Media & Partnerships Manager, Luis, takes on his first cleaning challenge: reviving a beat-up pair of On Cloudmonsters using the Reshoevn8r Signature Kit and Sneaker Laundry System. The results? Let’s just say you’ll never look at dirty mesh runners the same again.

Step 1: Dry Brush Your Sneakers First

Before adding any water or solution, Luis uses the Soft Bristle Brush to dry brush the surface. On Cloud sneakers have thick mesh uppers, and skipping this step just pushes dirt deeper into the fabric.

Step 2: Soft Brush + Advanced Sneaker Cleaning Solution

 

 

The Soft Brush and Reshoevn8r’s Advanced Sneaker Cleaning Solution creates a thick lather across the shoe. This helps lift stains from the mesh without damaging the breathable upper.

Step 3: Medium Brush for Deeper Mesh Cleaning

Next up, the Medium Bristle Brush tackles deeper grime. On Cloudmonster mesh can handle this level of scrubbing, but be careful if you're cleaning brands like Asics or New Balance, where mesh is softer and more prone to fraying.

Step 4: Stiff Brush on the Soles

Luis then uses the Stiff Bristle Brush to clean the midsole and outsole, where the most grime builds up from everyday wear.

Step 5: Wash with the Patented Sneaker Laundry System

After pre-treating, the sneakers go into the Reshoevn8r Laundry Bag with one of our patented Sneaker Laundry Pods. This machine-wash step deep cleans the interior and exterior of the shoe without damaging the structure or support of the Cloudmonster.

Bonus Step: Second Pass for Deep Mesh Cleaning

One wash wasn’t enough. Luis dries the shoes and runs a second round of pre-treatment, followed by a pass with a steamer and air compressor to blast out dirt trapped deep inside the mesh layers. Then, it’s back in the laundry for a final cycle.

Final Results: On Cloudmonsters Restored

After two full cycles and some extra love, the Cloudmonsters are back to their original bright white glory. It’s a reminder that the right sneaker cleaning tools, paired with a little know-how, can bring almost any shoe back from the dead.

Why Mesh Running Shoes Need Special Attention

Mesh shoes, such as On Cloud, Hoka, and Nike Flyknit, are light, breathable, and performance-ready, but the same material also traps dirt, sweat, and odor more quickly than leather or suede. Using the best sneaker cleaning kit for mesh helps preserve the look, breathability, and lifespan of your sneakers.
