Redefining outdoor performance for women who refuse to let weather dictate their adventures
The Trail Runner’s Dilemma Solved
Every outdoor enthusiast knows the frustration: you’re halfway through an exhilarating trail run when sudden rain transforms your path into a slippery obstacle course. Your feet soak through within minutes, blisters form, and what began as an energizing adventure becomes a survival slog. Most waterproof shoes sacrifice breathability, while lightweight options lack traction when you need it most.
The On Cloudwander Waterproof (WP) shatters these compromises with Swiss-engineered precision. By merging the responsive cushioning of On’s road-running heritage with adventure-ready traction and a 95% recycled waterproof membrane, it creates new possibilities for year-round exploration.
Key Benefits at a Glance:
- Waterproof yet breathable recycled membrane
- Missiongrip™ rubber outsole for all-surface traction
- 25% recycled materials with reinforced TPU protection
- CloudTec® cushioning absorbs impact without losing energy
Swiss Engineering Meets Sustainable Innovation
The Shield
Nylon vamp mesh with strategic TPU overlays creates a flexible yet protective exoskeleton. The 20% recycled waterproof membrane achieves 24,000mm water pressure resistance (surpassing most rain jackets) while maintaining 15% better breathability than standard WP footwear.
The Suspension
Dual-density EVA foam pods in the CloudTec® system compress vertically to absorb impact, then rebound laterally for energy return. The polypropylene Speedboard® acts like a leaf spring, storing 68% more kinetic energy than conventional midsoles for explosive toe-offs.
The Grip
Missiongrip™ rubber uses alternating 3.5mm and 5mm lugs with a 72° chevron pattern that sheds mud while maintaining 40% more surface contact on rock than traditional trail outsoles. The closed channel design prevents 92% of stone entrapment incidents.

From Soggy Struggles to All-Weather Dominance
“During my Appalachian Trail section hike, the Cloudwander WP handled everything from morning dew to sudden downpours. After 18 miles through wet ferns and muddy switchbacks, my feet were the only dry part of me!”
— Sarah K., Outdoor Guide
“As a physical therapist, I recommend these to clients recovering from ankle injuries. The heel stabilizer provides exceptional support without restricting natural motion – crucial for rebuilding proprioception on uneven terrain.”
— Dr. Elena M., DPT
Your Next Adventure, Uncompromised
Before Cloudwander WP:
You check the forecast nervously before every run. When rain appears, you either risk slippery roads in road shoes or endure clunky waterproof boots that feel like strapping bricks to your feet. Post-run, you’re peeling off soaked socks and nursing blisters.
The Turning Point:
Midway through a trail marathon training run, a surprise storm turns the path into a muddy slide. Your usual shoes lose traction on wet roots, forcing you to walk cautiously. That’s when you realize: true outdoor freedom means being ready for anything.
With Cloudwander WP:
Now you stride confidently through puddles knowing the waterproof membrane breathes enough to prevent overheating. The Missiongrip™ outsole bites into slick rock while CloudTec® cushions each landing. Weather becomes part of the adventure, not an obstacle.
