Few brands can claim to excel in both the hiking and running shoe worlds. However, in just 12 years, On has managed to innovate and dominate on each front. Creating the first-ever patented cushioning system that becomes activated upon landing, the Swiss brand has applied its CloudTec technology to most of its now-iconic models, which have become favorites among distance runners who want to preserve their soles for the long haul.
On’s CloudTrax has similarly become a favorite in the hiking realm for its pinpoint functionality and attractive silhouette. Now sold on Huckberry, the hiking shoe is cushioned with CloudTec for ultimate comfort and is gifted On’s Speedboard tech at the midsole to better store and release your energy on even the toughest of trails. The shoe also sports a new speed-lacing system that allows you to cinch the entire shoe with just a single pull to give you maximum support.
Weighing barely 15oz, the CloudTrax is built with 85% recycled polyester uppers that are breathable and water-repellant. The Missiongrip rubber on the outsole offers incredible traction on the trail, no matter the condition. Sporting a color scheme of white with brown and orange accents, this hiker also comes equipped with a super sturdy toecap that keeps the front of your feet from feeling all of those rocks and roots that may get in your way.
There aren’t a lot of hiking shoes that can give you supreme comfort while also looking great with any outfit, but this is the exception. The On CloudTrax is now available from Huckberry for $190.
