FAQs

What kind of running is this shoe designed for?

The Cloudvista 2 Waterproof is engineered for versatile trail running on mixed terrain, from light, well-maintained trails to moderate technical paths, particularly excelling in wet or unpredictable weather conditions.

Are these shoes fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature a waterproof membrane designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions, including rain, puddles, and damp trails. However, water can still enter from the shoe's collar if immersed too deeply.

How do I clean my Cloudvista 2 Waterproof shoes?

Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What is the heel drop of these shoes?

The On Cloudvista 2 Waterproof has a 6mm heel drop, providing a moderate offset suitable for a wide range of trail runners.

Can I use these shoes for road running?

While you can run short road sections connecting trails, the aggressive lugs of the Missiongrip outsole are optimized for off-road grip and may wear faster or feel less efficient on pavement compared to dedicated road running shoes.

What does 'Speedboard' do?

The integrated Speedboard is a flexible plate designed to convert the energy from your foot striking the ground into forward momentum, providing a responsive and propulsive feel during your run, especially on varied terrain.

Are these shoes suitable for cold weather?

The waterproof membrane provides some protection against cold moisture, but for very cold temperatures, pairing them with appropriate thermal socks is recommended as the mesh upper is primarily designed for breathability.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel wet despite 'waterproof' claim.

Ensure water isn't entering from the top (e.g., splashing over the collar or through loose gaiters if used). The waterproof membrane protects the lower foot, but extreme immersion or ingress from above can still lead to wetness. Check for any physical damage to the membrane. In very heavy rain or deep puddles, water can sometimes seep in from around the ankle opening.

Lack of grip on very muddy or extremely technical slopes.

While Missiongrip is highly versatile, extremely deep or slick mud may require shoes with deeper, more aggressively spaced lugs specifically designed for those conditions. The Cloudvista 2 is optimized for mixed terrain, not extreme mud. Adjust your stride and reduce speed on such challenging terrain.

Shoe feels heavier than expected after running in rain.

Although waterproof, the upper materials (especially the mesh) can absorb some surface moisture, which may add a slight amount of weight temporarily. Ensure proper drying after each wet run to prevent water retention and maintain material integrity.

Discomfort or hotspots developing during runs.

Check your lacing technique; it might be too tight or too loose in certain areas. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks for trails, as thick or poor-fitting socks can cause friction. Break-in time may be needed; gradually increase run distances.

Outsole lugs showing premature wear.

Excessive use on hard surfaces like pavement or concrete will accelerate wear on the aggressive lugs, as they are designed for softer trail terrain. Minimize road running to prolong the life of the outsole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile Performance: Excellent for mixed-terrain trail running, from forest paths to rocky ridgelines.
  • All-Weather Ready: Waterproof design ensures dry feet in wet conditions.
  • Enhanced Comfort: Softer cushioning and re-engineered rocker provide a smooth, comfortable ride.
  • Superior Grip: Missiongrip outsole offers reliable traction on varied surfaces.
  • Energetic Rebound: Speedboard technology adds responsiveness to your stride.
  • Lightweight Agility: Its low weight contributes to a feeling of speed and agility on the trails.

Cons

  • Not for Extreme Mud: While aggressive, the lugs may be less suited for extremely deep or technical mud compared to shoes designed specifically for those conditions.
  • Heel Drop Preference: The 6mm heel drop might not be ideal for all runners, particularly those who prefer a zero-drop or higher-drop shoe.
  • Durability in Harsh Conditions: While robust, polyester upper might show wear faster in highly abrasive, technical terrain over extended periods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: Before your first run, ensure laces are snug but not overtightened. Use the eyelets to customize fit, aiming for a secure feel without pressure points.
  2. Initial Fit: Wear them around the house to confirm comfort and fit before heading out on a run. Ensure adequate toe room.

Compatibility

  • Terrain: Ideal for mixed trail conditions, including packed dirt, gravel, moderate rocky sections, and wet environments. Suitable for daily training, longer trail runs, and even light hiking.
  • Runner Profile: Designed for runners who prioritize versatility, comfort, and waterproof protection on a variety of trails. The 6mm heel drop is generally versatile for many foot strikes.

Care

  1. Cleaning: After each use, gently brush off loose dirt and debris from the upper and outsole. For stubborn stains, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue. Do not submerge completely if possible, to preserve the inner materials.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or dryers). Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the waterproof membrane, adhesives, and materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
  5. Waterproofing Maintenance: While waterproof, regular cleaning helps maintain the integrity of the membrane. Info needed: [Check manufacturer's specific DWR care instructions, if applicable, for restoring outer water repellency.]
