The On Cloudrock Low Waterproof Hiking Shoes excel in scenarios demanding speed and confident footing. Their CloudTec technology combined with the plush Helion™ superfoam midsole ensures a responsive and comfortable ride, absorbing shocks effectively during ascents and rapid descents. The upgraded Missiongrip™ outsole provides dependable traction, allowing you to navigate confidently across wet roots, loose gravel, and rocky paths. For instance, on a changeable weather day, the 100% waterproof membrane keeps your feet dry through sudden downpours or stream crossings, maintaining comfort. Their lightweight nature supports an agile hiking style, perfect for covering ground quickly on day trips without the bulk of heavier boots.
Preparation for Use: Before embarking on your first adventure, ensure the shoes fit perfectly with your preferred hiking socks. We recommend a few shorter walks to properly break them in and confirm comfort for longer trails.
Compatibility: These shoes are engineered for mixed, technical terrain and are ideally suited for short, one-day hikes. Their 100% waterproof membrane ensures dependable performance in all weather conditions. They are best matched with hikers prioritizing agility, light loads, and responsive cushioning over maximum ankle rigidity or heavy load-bearing.
Care and Maintenance:
Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and debris with a soft brush. For caked-on mud, use a damp cloth with lukewarm water. Avoid harsh cleaning agents.
Drying: Allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them directly on heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Waterproofing: While the internal membrane is waterproof, maintaining the outer material's DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating is beneficial. If water stops beading on the surface, consider applying a specialized waterproofing spray designed for hiking footwear.
Storage: Store your Cloudrock Lows in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space away from direct sunlight to preserve their materials and longevity.
