Cloudrock Waterproof 2 M Black / Eclipse

The Cloudrock Waterproof 2 is a men's hiking boot from On Running.

The Swiss brand On Running, well-known to runners and trail-runners alike, is diversifying with the Cloudrock 2 Waterproof model, This is the evolution of the Cloudrock. The shoe has a mid-rise upper designed for hiking. But not just any hiking - this boot is designed for speed-hiking! The brand clearly recognises and makes use of the features that made its running models so successful, and as a result offers a Speed Hiking boot with a balance of lightness, comfort, and high-flying dynamism.

The Cloudrock Waterproof 2 has an all-new Missiongrip™ rubber compound that will give you much better traction in both wet and dry conditions. Inspired by Cloudventure 3, the Cloudrock 2 Waterproof has a closed midsole channel, which will prevent you from getting stones stuck in it, while still retaining excellent lightness and agility.

In terms of the sole, why fix something if it ain't broke? The famous Cloudtec® "clouds" offer the usual exceptional cushioning, which are guaranteed to provide unrivalled comfort, even after hundreds of kilometres. The sole block is also equipped with the Speedboard: a thin plate that stabilises your gait and propels you forward, literally making you accelerate.

The upper has a waterproof and breathable membrane to keep your feet dry in all conditions. The construction of the upper is still very light like the other models from the brand, but still offers increased protection with a small stone guard at the front of the foot.

In short, with its featherweight of 485 grams (per shoe), its breathable waterproof membrane and mid-rise upper, the Cloudrock Waterproof 2 is perfect for hikers who don't want to dilly dally on the trail, but still want the protection and comfort of a hiking shoe.
