On Cloudrock Low Waterproof Hiking Shoes - Black - UK 9.5

While agile and comfortable, the On Cloudrock Low Waterproof Hiking Shoes are *ideal for single-day hikes* due to their lightweight and low-cut design. For heavy multi-day backpacking or expeditions requiring extensive ankle support, more robust, higher-cut boots might be preferred.

Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry thoroughly away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.

Helion™ superfoam provides enhanced cushioning and energy return, contributing to a comfortable and smooth ride. It helps absorb impact and makes longer distances feel more manageable.

The X-shaped Speedboard® balances flexibility and stability, allowing for efficient energy transfer and smooth heel-to-toe transitions across varied terrain. It supports agile movement while providing necessary underfoot protection.

Yes, the shoes feature a 100% waterproof membrane specifically designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions, from rain and puddles to muddy trails.

These shoes are suitable for all terrain, providing confidence and grip on mixed and technical terrain. They are versatile for various hiking paths encountered on single-day excursions.

The On Cloudrock Low Waterproof Hiking Shoes have an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, which can influence how your foot strikes the ground and your overall gait.

Ensure proper lacing to prevent water entry from the top, especially in deep puddles or tall, wet grass. Check for any physical damage to the waterproof membrane. Always allow shoes to dry fully after each use to prevent internal moisture build-up from sweat.

Clean the Missiongrip™ outsole thoroughly to remove any lodged debris (mud, small stones) that might be compromising traction. Inspect the tread for excessive wear. While highly capable, these shoes may still struggle on extremely slick, icy, or algae-covered surfaces beyond their design limits.

Verify you have the correct size and fit; hiking shoes should be snug but not tight. Try different thicknesses of hiking socks. While designed for out-of-box comfort, a short adaptation period might still occur for some individuals to fully mold to their feet.
