FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for serious hiking?
The On Cloudrock Low WP is designed for versatility, excelling in light to moderate hiking, trail walking, and everyday outdoor adventures. For very rugged, multi-day expeditions, a more robust, higher-cut hiking boot might be preferred, but these offer excellent performance for most day trips.
What does 'WP' in the product name stand for?
'WP' stands for Waterproof, indicating that these sneakers are designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions, thanks to their specialized waterproof membrane and materials.
How do I clean my Cloudrock Low WP sneakers?
Gently brush off loose dirt. For stubborn grime, wipe with a damp cloth using a small amount of mild soap, if necessary. Rinse with clean water and allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat.
Can I wear these in cold weather or snow?
While the Cloudrock Low WP offers waterproof protection, it is not insulated for extreme cold. It can handle light snow and wet, cold conditions, but for very cold temperatures or deep snow, insulated winter-specific footwear would be more appropriate.
Are these true to size?
Info needed: While On typically aims for consistent sizing, fit can vary by individual foot shape. It's generally recommended to refer to On's official size guide or try them on to ensure the best fit.
What is the benefit of the 'X-shaped Speedboard'?
The `X-shaped Speedboard` works to stabilize your foot while promoting a natural rolling motion, converting impact energy into forward propulsion. This provides a responsive feel and can help reduce fatigue during longer periods of activity.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel uncomfortably warm or sweaty
While waterproof shoes inherently offer less breathability, wearing high-quality, moisture-wicking socks can significantly improve comfort by drawing sweat away from your skin. Ensure proper ventilation of the shoes after each use.
Slipping on certain surfaces despite Missiongrip outsole
Check the `Missiongrip outsole` for any accumulation of mud, debris, or small stones that might be reducing traction. Clean the sole thoroughly. Also, be mindful that no outsole can guarantee perfect grip on all surfaces, especially extremely slick or icy conditions.
Water appears to be getting inside the shoe
Inspect the `recycled polyester upper` and seams for any visible damage or tears that could compromise the waterproof barrier. Ensure the laces are tied snugly to prevent water ingress from the top. If the outer DWR coating has worn off, consider reapplying a waterproofing treatment suitable for technical footwear.
Squeaking sound while walking
A squeak can sometimes develop from moisture trapped between the insole and the `Helion superfoam midsole`, or from the outsole interacting with certain surfaces. Try removing the insole, cleaning both the insole and the inside of the shoe, and ensuring they are completely dry before reinserting. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
First Use
- Lacing: Ensure laces are securely tied to provide a snug, yet comfortable fit. Experiment with different lacing techniques if you experience pressure points. The low padded collar offers flexibility, so adjust lacing to complement this.
- Initial Wear: Wear the sneakers for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet. While designed for comfort out of the box, a brief break-in period can enhance the fit for some users.
Compatibility
- Activities: Ideal for light hiking, trail walking, urban exploration, commuting in wet weather, and general outdoor activities where waterproof protection and comfort are key. Its versatile design makes it suitable for both active and casual use.
- Terrain: Performs well on paved paths, gravel, light trails, and uneven natural surfaces. The `Missiongrip outsole` is engineered for reliable traction across diverse conditions.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy or dirty conditions, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary). Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners which can damage the material and waterproof membrane.
- Drying: Always air dry your Cloudrock Low WP sneakers at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can degrade materials and compromise the waterproof properties. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and completely dry before storing for extended periods.
- Waterproofing: While inherently waterproof, the exterior DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment may wear off over time. You can reapply a suitable water-repellent spray designed for outdoor footwear to maintain optimal performance.
