FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable and supportive, their design is optimized for hiking. They can be worn casually, especially in wet climates, but may feel more robust than typical casual sneakers.
How do I clean the waterproof membrane?
Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing, which can compromise the waterproof treatment.
Can I use these for trail running?
They offer good grip and cushioning, making them suitable for moderate trail running. However, for highly technical or competitive trail running, dedicated trail running shoes might offer more specialized features like enhanced flexibility or aggressive grip patterns.
What is CloudTec Phase technology?
CloudTec Phase is an advanced cushioning technology developed by On, specifically optimized for hiking to provide smooth landings and a comfortable, supportive ride on varied terrain.
How long will the waterproofing last?
The built-in waterproof membrane is designed for durability. With proper care, it should maintain its effectiveness for the expected lifespan of the shoe under normal hiking conditions.
What is the best way to dry these shoes if they get wet inside?
Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb internal moisture and maintain their shape during the drying process.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping into shoes
Ensure the waterproof membrane is intact and laces are tied securely. Check for any damage to the shoe material. If water is entering from the top, consider taller socks or adjusting lacing.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the Missiongrip outsole to remove mud or debris that might be clogging the tread pattern. Check for excessive wear on the rubber.
Discomfort during hikes
Ensure the shoes fit correctly and are laced properly. Break them in gradually on shorter walks before undertaking long hikes. Consider using specialized hiking socks.
Shoes feel stiff
Allow the shoes time to break in with wear. Wear them for progressively longer periods to allow the materials to soften and conform to your feet.
