FAQs
What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Cloudhorizon 2?
The heel-to-toe drop is 8 mm, which is a moderate drop suitable for many hiking activities.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they have cushioning technology, they are specifically designed as hiking shoes. For running, On Running offers dedicated running shoe models.
What material is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of 100% rubber, featuring On Running's Missiongrip technology for enhanced traction.
How do I clean the shoes if they get very dirty?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap for the uppers and outsole. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water. Allow them to air dry naturally.
What is the weight of a single shoe?
A single shoe (size 7) weighs approximately 362.5 grams.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
The breathable uppers offer some protection, but they are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof hiking boots are recommended.
What does 'Cloud Tec Phase' cushioning do?
Cloud Tec Phase is an evolution of On's cushioning technology, specifically engineered for hiking to provide soft landings and smooth transitions on uneven terrain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the front lacing system for a more customized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider trying a different size.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the Missiongrip outsole is clean of mud or debris. While designed for traction, extreme wet conditions can still reduce grip; proceed with caution.
Feet feel damp or sweaty
The breathable uppers are designed for airflow. If persistent dampness occurs, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. Allow shoes to air dry completely between uses.
