FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road running as well?
While the On Running Cloudvista 2 is designed primarily for trails, its cushioning and responsiveness can handle short stretches of road. However, for exclusive road running, a dedicated road running shoe would typically offer optimized performance, better flexibility, and potentially longer durability on asphalt.
How do I choose the correct size for the Cloudvista 2?
Running shoe sizing can vary slightly between brands. It's recommended to measure your foot length and refer to On Running's specific sizing chart. Many runners also prefer to go up half a size in their running shoes to accommodate foot swelling during activity and ensure adequate toe room, preventing discomfort on long runs.
Are the Cloudvista 2 shoes waterproof?
The breathable upper of the Cloudvista 2 is designed for ventilation and support, not for waterproofing. While it can handle light splashes, it is not fully waterproof. For conditions where significant water exposure is expected, consider using waterproof socks or a shoe specifically designed with a waterproof membrane.
What kind of terrain is the Cloudvista 2 best suited for?
The Cloudvista 2 is a versatile trail shoe that performs best on a variety of trail terrains, including well-maintained paths, gravel roads, moderate dirt trails, and light to moderate technical sections. Its combination of grip and cushioning makes it adaptable to many outdoor running environments.
How often should I replace my trail running shoes?
The lifespan of trail running shoes varies depending on usage, terrain, and individual running style. A general guideline is to consider replacement after 300-500 miles (approximately 480-800 kilometers) or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning, support, or outsole grip, as these can affect performance and increase injury risk.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter, less intense activities to allow the materials to adapt to your foot. Also, check your lacing to ensure it's not too tight and is evenly distributed across your foot.
Reduced grip on wet or loose surfaces.
While the Missiongrip outsole is highly effective, extremely slick or muddy conditions can still challenge traction. Ensure your strides are deliberate and focus on precise foot placement. Clean the outsole thoroughly after each run to prevent mud or debris build-up that could reduce grip.
Feet feel hot or sweaty during runs.
The breathable upper is designed for ventilation, but individual factors like sock choice and weather can influence comfort. Opt for moisture-wicking running socks. If the issue persists, consider checking the fit; overly tight shoes can restrict airflow and increase heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your On Running Cloudvista 2 shoes, proper setup, understanding compatibility, and consistent care are essential.
Setup
- Lacing: Ensure laces are securely tied, providing a snug fit without being overly tight. Adjust lacing pressure evenly across your foot to prevent hot spots or discomfort, allowing your foot to move naturally within the shoe.
- Initial Wear: We recommend wearing the shoes for shorter walks or runs initially. This allows them to conform to your feet and helps you identify any pressure points before embarking on longer excursions.
Compatibility
- Terrain: The Cloudvista 2 is ideal for a wide range of trail surfaces, including well-maintained dirt paths, gravel trails, moderate technical sections, and light rocky terrain. The Missiongrip outsole offers reliable performance on both wet and dry conditions.
- Activities: Best suited for trail running, light hiking, and fastpacking where a combination of responsive cushioning, agility, and reliable grip is desired.
Care
- Cleaning: After runs, especially in muddy conditions, remove excess dirt by gently rinsing the shoes under cold water. Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to carefully scrub away stubborn mud and debris from the outsole and upper materials.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources such as radiators, tumble dryers, or strong sunlight, as these can damage materials, adhesives, and compromise the shoe's structure. You can stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent the growth of mildew or unpleasant odors.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the outsole for wear and tear, and check the upper for any signs of damage or fraying that might require attention, helping to prolong the life of your shoes.
