FAQs

What type of terrain is the Cloudhorizon best suited for?

The Cloudhorizon is best suited for moderate terrain, including city trails, park paths, gravel routes, and less technical mountain trails. Its cushioning and grip are optimized for these conditions.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Cloudhorizon features an engineered mesh upper for breathability, which means it is not explicitly waterproof. It will offer some protection against light splashes, but it is not designed to keep your feet dry in heavy rain or wet conditions.

How much do the Cloudhorizon shoes weigh?

A single Cloudhorizon shoe weighs approximately 315 grams, making it a lightweight option for hiking and outdoor activities.

What is the heel drop of these shoes?

The On Running Cloudhorizon features a 6mm heel drop, which supports a natural foot position and comfortable stride.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

While primarily designed for hiking and walking, the plush cushioning and lightweight nature of the Cloudhorizon could accommodate light trail running on less technical trails. However, for dedicated trail running, On Running offers other models built for higher speeds and agility.

How should I clean my Cloudhorizon shoes?

To clean, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap on the upper and outsole. Rinse the cloth and wipe thoroughly. Air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort or hot spots during long hikes.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate hiking socks. Re-evaluate your lacing technique; try loosening or tightening specific sections to optimize fit. A 'break-in' period, even with cushioned shoes, can help your feet adapt.

Shoes feel less grippy on wet or very muddy surfaces.

While Missiongrip™ provides reliable traction, it's optimized for moderate terrain. Exercise extra caution on extremely wet, slick, or deep muddy conditions as the shoe is not designed for aggressive mud shedding or extreme rock climbing grip.

Upper material appears dirty or stained.

Gently clean the mesh upper with a soft brush and a solution of mild soap and water. Avoid scrubbing aggressively to preserve the material. Air dry completely away from direct heat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maximum cushioning for superior comfort on long hikes.
  • Reliable Missiongrip™ traction on moderate and varied terrain.
  • Lightweight and breathable design keeps feet comfortable.
  • Supportive structure suitable for extended outdoor adventures.
  • Versatile for city trails, park paths, and mountain trails.

Cons

  • Optimized for moderate terrain; may not be ideal for highly technical or extreme trails.
  • Plush cushioning might reduce ground feel for some users who prefer more responsiveness.
  • Mesh upper offers breathability but is not explicitly waterproof.
  • Info needed: Durability compared to heavier, more rugged hiking boots for very demanding use.

Setup

Lacing: Ensure the laces are snug but not too tight. Use the standard lacing pattern, adjusting tension evenly from the toe box to the ankle to secure your foot without restricting circulation. A proper fit prevents slippage and hot spots.

First Wear: It's advisable to wear your Cloudhorizon shoes for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the cushioning and fit, even though they offer out-of-the-box comfort.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for moderate hiking, walking, and general outdoor exploration. They are compatible with a wide range of socks, but moisture-wicking hiking socks are recommended to enhance breathability and prevent blisters. They perform best on maintained trails, gravel paths, and light rocky terrains.

Care

Cleaning: To clean the mesh upper and synthetic sole, gently wipe away dirt and debris with a soft brush or damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials and adhesives.

Storage: Store your Cloudhorizon shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to maintain their material integrity and prolong their lifespan.
