FAQs
What type of trails are the On Running Cloudvista 2 best suited for?
The Cloudvista 2 is ideally suited for light to moderate trails, gravel paths, and mixed terrain. Its lightweight design and cushioning make it excellent for daily trail runs and faster efforts. It's less suited for extremely technical or highly rugged, rocky trails.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The product description mentions a 'recycled techy mesh' upper and TPU mudguard. While these materials offer some protection and durability against splashes and light moisture, explicit waterproofing is not specified. For very wet conditions or deep puddles, additional water protection might be needed.
How should I clean my Cloudvista 2 shoes?
Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a soft cloth or brush with mild soap and cold water. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not machine wash or use artificial heat to dry them.
What is CloudTec cushioning and Helion superfoam?
CloudTec is On Running's signature cushioning technology, featuring individual 'cloud' elements that compress upon impact for soft landings and then firm up for explosive take-offs. Helion superfoam is a specialized foam material that works with CloudTec to provide lightweight, durable, and highly responsive cushioning, offering protection without sacrificing speed.
Are these shoes designed for specific genders?
Yes, this particular variant of the On Running Cloudvista 2 is designed with a female-specific fit. Other variants may be available for different genders or with unisex sizing.
Can I use these shoes for road running?
While the Cloudvista 2 can handle short sections of road, its lugged outsole and specific cushioning are optimized for trail conditions. For dedicated road running, a shoe specifically designed for asphalt would likely offer better performance and durability on that surface.
Are the materials used in the Cloudvista 2 sustainable?
Yes, the shoe features a 'recycled techy mesh' upper, indicating On Running's commitment to using more sustainable materials in its products.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel hot and sweaty during runs.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. The Cloudvista 2 features a breathable mesh upper and perforated tongue, but sock choice can significantly impact temperature regulation. Also, ensure laces aren't overly tight, which can restrict circulation.
The grip feels less effective on certain surfaces.
Check the outsole for any lodged debris (small rocks, mud) that might be compromising the sticky grip. Clean the lugs regularly. Also, remember that while the grip is reliable, it's optimized for typical trail conditions and may not perform as well on extremely slick ice or deep, thick mud.
I'm experiencing discomfort or pressure points.
Re-evaluate your lacing technique. Try different lacing patterns to relieve pressure on specific areas of your foot. Ensure you have the correct size; a shoe that is too small or too large can cause discomfort. Allow for a short break-in period if they are new.
The cushioning feels less responsive over time.
Running shoes have a lifespan, typically 300-500 miles, after which cushioning materials naturally degrade. If your shoes are nearing this mileage, it might be time to consider a replacement. Proper storage and cleaning can help maintain the integrity of the Helion superfoam and CloudTec for longer.
My shoes smell after runs.
Remove the insoles after each run and allow the shoes and insoles to air dry completely. You can also sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and insoles overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out before your next run. Avoid storing them in a damp, enclosed space.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your On Running Cloudvista 2 is straightforward. Simply put them on, adjust the laces for a secure, comfortable fit, and you're ready to hit the trails. Ensure your laces are tied snugly enough to prevent your foot from sliding but not so tight as to cause pressure points or discomfort.
Compatibility
- Terrain: Best suited for light to moderate trails, gravel paths, and mixed terrain. They can also perform adequately on short road sections. Not recommended for extreme technical mountain trails requiring heavy-duty protection.
- Runner Type: Ideal for female trail runners seeking a lightweight, cushioned, and breathable shoe for performance-oriented runs.
- Footwear: Compatible with standard athletic socks. Consider moisture-wicking socks for optimal comfort.
Care Instructions
Proper care extends the life and performance of your Cloudvista 2 shoes:
- Cleaning: After each run, especially in muddy or dusty conditions, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or hot water, as these can damage materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct sunlight or use artificial heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause materials to shrink or degrade.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Remove insoles to air out if they become damp.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can damage the structural integrity and cushioning properties of the shoe.
Materials: Textile & Synthetic Upper/Synthetic Sole.
