FAQs

Are the On Running Cloudhorizon shoes waterproof?

The On Running Cloudhorizon features a breathable engineered mesh upper, which is not fully waterproof. It offers some resistance to light splashes and keeps your feet cool, but for sustained wet conditions, you might consider hiking footwear with a waterproof membrane.

What type of terrain are these shoes best suited for?

These shoes are specifically designed for moderate terrain, including city trails, forest paths, gravel roads, and well-maintained mountain trails. The Missiongrip™ outsole provides reliable traction on these varied surfaces.

How should I clean my Cloudhorizon shoes?

Brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents.

What is the heel drop of these hiking shoes?

The On Running Cloudhorizon has a 6mm heel drop, which is designed to provide a balanced and comfortable stride for hiking.

Can I use these for trail running as well?

While they incorporate advanced running shoe technologies for cushioning, the Cloudhorizon is primarily optimized as a hiking shoe, focusing on comfort and stable grip for walking on varied terrain. For dedicated trail running, On offers other models specifically designed for higher speeds and agility.

What makes the cushioning in these shoes so comfortable?

The exceptional comfort stems from the combination of On's proprietary CloudTec Phase® cushioning technology and the Helion™ superfoam midsole. This blend provides adaptive, plush cushioning that smooths out your stride and absorbs impact effectively.

Do these shoes require a break-in period?

While the Cloudhorizon is designed for immediate comfort, it's always recommended to wear them on shorter walks before embarking on longer hikes. This allows the materials to adapt to your foot shape and ensures maximum comfort when you need it most.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort or rubbing during hikes.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate, well-fitting hiking socks. Experiment with different lacing techniques to customize the fit and alleviate pressure points, such as skipping eyelets where pressure occurs. Allow for a break-in period on shorter walks to let the shoes conform to your feet.

Feeling unstable or slipping on wet or loose surfaces.

While Missiongrip™ offers reliable traction on moderate terrain, always be mindful of trail conditions. Reduce speed and step carefully on extremely wet, muddy, or icy patches. These shoes are designed for moderate trails, so adjust expectations for very technical or slick conditions beyond their intended use.

Shoes developing an unpleasant odor.

Allow your shoes to fully air dry after each use, especially if they got wet or sweaty. Remove insoles to dry separately, as they can retain moisture. Consider using shoe deodorizers, cedar shoe trees, or sprinkling baking soda inside to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for all-day comfort on diverse moderate trails.
  • Reliable grip on varied moderate terrain thanks to the Missiongrip™ outsole.
  • Lightweight and breathable design prevents overheating and discomfort.
  • Engineered for smooth transitions and reduced fatigue over long distances.
  • Supports varied outdoor exploration from city trails to well-maintained mountain paths.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for moderate terrain, potentially less suitable for highly technical or extremely rugged trails.
  • Maximal cushioning might reduce 'ground feel' for hikers who prefer more direct trail feedback.
  • Polyester upper, while breathable, is not fully waterproof and requires specific cleaning care.

Setup: Before your first hike, ensure a snug and comfortable fit by properly lacing your Cloudhorizon shoes. Wear hiking-specific socks to prevent blisters and optimize the shoe's breathability and cushioning. It's recommended to break them in on shorter walks or daily activities before attempting longer excursions to allow the shoe to adapt to your foot.

Compatibility: These shoes are best suited for moderate hiking trails, nature walks, and general outdoor exploration. They pair well with performance hiking socks for optimal comfort and moisture management. They are designed for varied moderate terrains, offering excellent support for walking and light hiking activities.

Care: To maintain your Cloudhorizon shoes and extend their lifespan, gently brush off loose dirt and debris after each use. For deeper cleaning, wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water). Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, as these can damage the materials and compromise the cushioning and adhesive bonds. Allow shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight. Removing insoles to dry separately can help prevent odors. Store them in a cool, dry place.
