For hikes, I have On's Cloudsurfer trail and Cloudvista 2, both are trail running shoes. Magaan and very comfortable!
I have 3 currently — bought two together on sale (hoka speedgoat 5) and got the third after spraining an ankle when I thought I a different style might help (oncloud cloud vistas)
Well yeah that's their trail shoe.
Just did a 12km hike today on On Cloudvista that was fine.
Had a pair they were ok, nothing special. The grip looks great but for some reason they were absolute shit in mud. Never figured out why.
Yes! I kept going back to them, like I said, I owned four pairs! I will see if I'm doing a harder or more challenging hike, I definitely grab my hiking boots. I'm also curious to try the On cloud trail runners. I have a pair of On cloud running shoes right now, and wore those on an easy hike and they were fabulous. I'd love to see the tread on the cloud trail runners though!
Try On cloud trail runners. They make waterproof versions. I have the on cloud mid hiking shoe.i need the extra ankle support due to an old injury. They are super comfortable for long hikes.
