FAQs
Are the On Cloudvista 2 shoes suitable for road running?
While the Cloudvista 2 offers excellent cushioning, its MissiongripTM outsole is specifically designed for varied trail surfaces. While it can handle short sections of road, it is not optimized for prolonged road running and may wear down the specialized grip faster than a dedicated road shoe.
What kind of terrain are these shoes best for?
The Cloudvista 2 is designed for all terrains, performing optimally on varied trails such as packed dirt, gravel paths, moderate rocky sections, and muddy conditions. It's a versatile choice for mixed trail adventures.
How do I clean my Cloudvista 2 shoes?
Remove loose dirt by hand, then use a soft brush and lukewarm water with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing. Let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What is HelionTM superfoam?
HelionTM superfoam is On's proprietary cushioning technology designed to provide lightweight, durable, and highly responsive cushioning, offering excellent energy return and impact protection for long-lasting comfort on the trails.
What is MissiongripTM?
MissiongripTM is On's high-performance outsole technology featuring multi-directional lugs and varying grip patterns. It's engineered to provide superior traction and stability on diverse and challenging trail surfaces, wet or dry.
Can I use these shoes for hiking?
Yes, the durable construction, comfortable cushioning, and reliable MissiongripTM outsole make the Cloudvista 2 an excellent choice for hiking and light trekking, especially on varied terrain and in wet conditions.
Is the waterproof feature permanent?
The durable, waterproof upper is designed to withstand the elements. With proper care, its water resistance will last. However, extreme wear, abrasion, or improper cleaning can reduce its effectiveness over time. Regular cleaning and occasional re-application of a footwear-specific waterproofing treatment can help maintain performance.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel wet inside even with the waterproof upper.
Ensure your socks are made of moisture-wicking synthetic material, not cotton, which can hold sweat. Check for any tears or damage to the upper. If running through very deep puddles, water may enter over the collar. Consider gaiters for extreme conditions.
I'm experiencing discomfort or rubbing during runs.
Verify you have the correct size. Re-evaluate your lacing technique to ensure it's not too tight or too loose in specific areas. Break-in the shoes gradually on shorter runs before attempting longer distances. Consider different sock thicknesses.
The outsole seems to be losing grip on certain surfaces.
Thoroughly clean the MissiongripTM outsole to remove any embedded dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing traction. Inspect the lugs for excessive wear; significant wear may indicate the need for replacement.
The shoes smell after use.
Ensure shoes are fully air-dried after every use. Remove insoles occasionally to air them separately. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Sizing and Fit: Ensure you have the correct size. The Cloudvista 2 is available in UK 8.5 (female). Try them on with your preferred running socks to assess fit. Your toes should have a thumb's width of space from the front, and your heel should feel secure without slipping.
- Lacing: Experiment with lacing techniques to find what provides the most secure and comfortable fit for your foot shape. A runner's knot can help prevent heel slip on ascents.
Compatibility
- Terrain: Ideal for all terrains, including packed dirt, gravel, rocky paths, and muddy trails. Designed for diverse outdoor adventures and trail running.
- Activities: Best suited for trail running, hiking, fastpacking, and walking on varied natural surfaces.
- Weather: The waterproof upper makes them compatible with wet and damp conditions, offering protection from rain and puddles.
Care
- Cleaning: After use, especially on muddy trails, knock off any loose dirt. Use a soft brush (an old toothbrush works well) and lukewarm water with a mild soap to clean the upper and outsole. Avoid 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 direct sunlight) as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your Cloudvista 2 shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: While the upper is waterproof, periodically check its integrity. If you notice reduced water repellency over time, you can use a suitable footwear-specific waterproofing spray (compatible with synthetic materials) to restore performance, following the product's instructions.
