On Cloudsurfer Trail 2 Waterproof — Dry Feet, Mile After Mile, Whatever the Forecast
Rain doesn’t cancel training runs, and it shouldn’t ruin your feet either. The On Cloudsurfer Trail 2 Waterproof solves that with a fully waterproof, abrasion-resistant upper built for moderate trail terrain. CloudTec Phase cushioning brings road-shoe smoothness to trail runs, while Missiongrip rubber holds traction on slick, wet ground. On built this for runners who want a cushioned, protected shoe for wet fall races, cold mornings, and any route where the weather is part of the deal.

- Missiongrip™ outsole with bigger chevron lugs — reliable traction on slick or uneven ground
- Improved heel fit and lockdown lacing — a secure, locked-in feel through longer runs
- Padded lining — all-day comfort without sacrificing breathability
- 8mm heel-to-toe drop — supports a natural mid-to-forefoot strike on trail terrain
- Built for non-technical trails — smooth road-shoe feel with just enough grip for moderate conditions
Cloudsurfer Trail 2 Waterproof vs. Standard Cloudsurfer Trail 2: Which One Fits Your Runs?
Both share the same CloudTec Phase cushioning platform, but weather protection sets them apart.
| Feature | Cloudsurfer Trail 2 Waterproof | Standard Cloudsurfer Trail 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Upper | Waterproof, abrasion-resistant | Breathable mesh, not waterproof |
| Best for | Wet trails, rain, cold-weather races | Dry to mixed trail conditions |
| Traction | Missiongrip with chevron lugs | Missiongrip, standard lug pattern |
| Breathability | Moderate, weather-sealed | Higher airflow, lighter feel |
| Fit | Standard to slightly narrow | Standard fit |
If wet weather or unpredictable forecasts are part of your training routine, the waterproof version earns its place. If you run mostly in dry conditions and want maximum breathability, the standard version stays cooler.
Sizing & Fit Tips
The Cloudsurfer Trail 2 Waterproof runs standard to slightly narrow, especially through the midfoot and heel. On does not currently offer a wide-width option, so runners with wider feet should consider sizing up half a size or trying the shoe in-store first.
