FAQs
What kind of terrain are the On Cloudvista 2 best for?
The Cloudvista 2 is optimized for mixed terrain, including packed dirt, gravel roads, forest trails, and light rocky sections. It offers a balance of cushioning and grip for varied surfaces.
How does the 'Speedboard' enhance my run?
The redesigned dual-tip Speedboard works by transforming impact energy into forward momentum. It provides a snappier, more responsive feel, giving you increased rebound and propulsion with each stride.
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While designed for trails, the Cloudvista 2's cushioning can handle short sections of road comfortably. However, for exclusive road running, a dedicated road running shoe would be more efficient and durable due to differences in outsole design.
How often should I clean my Cloudvista 2 shoes?
It's best to clean them after every muddy or exceptionally dirty run. For general use, a light clean every few runs to remove dust and debris will suffice. Always allow them to air dry completely.
What is the benefit of the higher stack height?
The slightly higher stack height provides enhanced underfoot cushioning and protection. This can lead to greater comfort on longer runs and better isolation from sharp objects on the trail, reducing foot fatigue.
What is the recommended break-in period for the Cloudvista 2?
Typically, a break-in period of 20-30 miles is recommended for new running shoes. Start with shorter, easier runs to allow the shoes to conform to your feet before tackling longer distances or more challenging terrain.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during runs.
Check your lacing to ensure it's not too tight or too loose, and experiment with different lacing patterns. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks that wick moisture and provide cushioning. Verify you have the correct shoe size and width; running shoes often require a half-size up from street shoes.
Shoes feel less responsive or 'flat' over time.
Running shoe cushioning degrades over mileage. The Cloudvista 2, like all running shoes, has a lifespan. Consider replacing your shoes after approximately 300-500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and terrain. Regular cleaning and proper drying can also help maintain cushioning integrity.
Slipping on wet or loose terrain.
While the outsole is designed for mixed terrain, extremely wet, muddy, or loose conditions might exceed its optimal grip. Adjust your stride to be shorter and more controlled. Ensure the outsole lugs are free of packed dirt or debris. For consistently very technical or muddy conditions, a shoe with more aggressive lugs might be more suitable.
Persistent foot odor.
Always allow shoes to air dry completely after each run. Remove insoles to air them out separately. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Wash your running socks after every use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting Started (Setup)
- Lacing: Ensure your shoes are laced securely but not overly tight. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find what offers the best fit and reduces pressure points for your foot shape.
- Initial Wear: Wear the Cloudvista 2 for short walks or easy runs initially to allow the shoe to mold to your foot and to break in the cushioning. This helps prevent discomfort on longer runs.
Compatibility
- Terrain: Best suited for *mixed terrain* including dirt paths, gravel roads, packed trails, and light rocky sections. While capable, it is not designed for extremely technical, muddy, or mountainous terrain requiring highly aggressive lugs.
- Running Style: Ideal for neutral runners seeking a cushioned, responsive ride.
- Gender & Size: This specific model is a women's shoe (Female, UK 5.5). Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and performance.
Product Care
To prolong the life and performance of your On Cloudvista 2 shoes, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: After runs, especially on muddy trails, remove excess dirt by gently brushing or rinsing the shoes with cold water. Avoid hot water, which can damage materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can warp materials and adhesives. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the shoe's materials and performance features.
