Product Information

Full details

The On Running Cloudhorizon Waterproof is designed for men seeking a reliable, all-weather trail running and hiking shoe. Its primary benefit is providing supreme comfort and excellent traction while keeping feet dry in wet conditions, thanks to its waterproof membrane and advanced cushioning. While offering robust protection, users should note that as with most waterproof footwear, breathability might be slightly less compared to non-waterproof alternatives, though the engineered mesh aims to balance this.

FAQs

What does 'WP' in Cloudhorizon WP stand for?

WP stands for 'Waterproof', indicating that these shoes feature a full waterproof membrane to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear, or just trail running?

While optimized for trails, their comfortable cushioning, durable design, and sleek black style make them versatile enough for everyday casual wear and walking, even in wet city conditions.

How do I clean my On Running Cloudhorizon Waterproof shoes?

Gently brush off loose dirt. For more thorough cleaning, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, machine washing, or submerging them completely. Allow them to air dry naturally.

Do these shoes require a break-in period?

On Running shoes are generally known for their out-of-the-box comfort. While a minimal break-in period may be beneficial for some individuals to fully adapt to the shoe's fit and feel, it's typically not extensive.

Can I wear these in cold weather or snow?

These shoes are waterproof, which offers protection against moisture from snow and slush. However, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold. For very cold temperatures, you might need additional thermal socks or a dedicated winter boot.

What type of terrain are they best suited for?

The Cloudhorizon Waterproof is best suited for varied trail conditions, including muddy paths, rocky terrain, uneven surfaces, and wet environments. The Missiongrip outsole provides reliable traction on such surfaces.

Troubleshooting

My feet still feel damp after running in wet conditions.

While the shoes are waterproof, moisture can enter from the top if water goes over the collar or through socks if they are not moisture-wicking. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks and consider gaiters for very deep puddles or heavy rain. Also, check that the shoes are properly laced to prevent water ingress from the ankle opening.

The shoes feel less grippy than expected on certain surfaces.

Ensure the Missiongrip outsole is clean and free from caked-on mud, debris, or small stones, which can reduce traction. Different surfaces (e.g., slick, polished wet rock vs. muddy trail) will naturally offer varying levels of grip. Allow for a break-in period if new, as some outsoles can perform better after initial wear.

I'm experiencing discomfort or rubbing during long runs.

Check your lacing technique to ensure a secure but not overly tight fit. Experiment with different lacing patterns if you have specific pressure points. Also, evaluate your socks; a good quality, well-fitting athletic sock can make a significant difference. Ensure the shoe is properly broken in, although On Running shoes typically have minimal break-in time.

The shoes feel stiff or noisy when walking.

New shoes, especially those with advanced cushioning and durable outsoles, can sometimes feel a bit stiff initially. A short break-in period of casual walking usually resolves this. The CloudTec Phase technology is designed to adapt to your foot and stride over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care: Getting the Most From Your Shoes

Setup

Getting started with your Cloudhorizon Waterproof shoes is straightforward:

  1. Lace Up Securely: Adjust the laces to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. The padded collar is designed to provide a locked-in feel, preventing heel slippage without excessive pressure.
  2. Wear Appropriate Socks: Opt for moisture-wicking socks to maximize comfort and manage any internal moisture, especially during strenuous activity.

Compatibility

These trainers are specifically tailored for men and designed for a variety of outdoor activities:

  • Terrain: Best suited for trails, varied natural surfaces, and wet urban environments. The Missiongrip outsole offers excellent stability on unpredictable terrain.
  • Weather: Ideal for wet conditions, light rain, and damp environments where waterproof protection is essential. While waterproof, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold or snow.
  • Activities: Perfect for trail running, hiking, walking, and general outdoor exploration where comfort, protection, and traction are key.

Care

Proper care will extend the lifespan of your Cloudhorizon Waterproof shoes:

  1. Cleaning: After use, especially on muddy trails, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage materials and adhesives.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You can use shoe trees or stuff them with newspaper to help maintain their shape.
  4. Waterproofing Maintenance: While they feature a waterproof membrane, regular cleaning and occasional application of a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for footwear can help maintain the outer material's water repellency.
