FAQs
Are the On Running Cloudhorizon 2 waterproof?
The Cloudhorizon 2 model features breathable technical materials for moisture management but is not inherently waterproof. For waterproof options, consider models explicitly labeled as such.
What is the weight of the Cloudhorizon 2?
The weight of a single shoe is approximately 362.5g.
What type of terrain are these shoes best suited for?
These shoes are optimized for long hikes and mixed terrain exploration, including trails, rocky paths, and moderately challenging surfaces.
How should I choose the right size?
Refer to the On Running sizing guide and measure your foot length. It's often recommended to consider trying them on in person for the best fit, especially for hiking footwear.
Can I use these for trail running?
While they offer cushioning and grip suitable for some trail running, they are primarily designed and optimized for hiking. For dedicated trail running, other specialized models might be more appropriate.
What makes the CloudTec Phase™ cushioning different?
CloudTec Phase™ cushioning is engineered to provide a smoother transition and enhanced impact absorption specifically for the demands of hiking and walking on uneven terrain.
What materials are the shoes made of?
The upper is made from breathable technical materials, the midsole uses Helion™ foam, and the outsole is constructed from Missiongrip™ rubber.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
Ensure the Missiongrip™ outsole is clean from mud or debris. For exceptionally slick conditions, proceed with caution.
Feet feel damp after a long hike
While the upper is breathable, prolonged exposure to extreme conditions can still lead to moisture. Ensure socks are also moisture-wicking. Allow shoes to dry completely between uses.
Discomfort on prolonged hikes
Ensure the correct size and fit. Consider using specialized insoles if additional arch support is needed. Break the shoes in gradually before undertaking very long distances.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no special setup. They are ready for use straight out of the box. It is recommended to wear them for a short period initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Compatibility: The Cloudhorizon 2 is designed for adult male foot sizes. They are compatible with standard hiking socks. For optimal performance, ensure the shoes fit correctly; consult sizing charts if unsure.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt and mud from the upper and outsole. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
