Cloudventure Waterproof

I don't have a set weekly routine, but partake in both high altitude, multi-day hikes globally as well as local day hikes around Asia. While I think the Cloudventure is great on the trail for my more casual hikes, I'm not satisfied with its grip on "smoother" surfaces in wet conditions. I've used it a couple of times in the rain over the past half year, and had to be especially careful going downhill since I've almost slipped a few times. Now I only use them when I know the terrain will offer more traction. My mother also bought these soon after me, and has had the same issues. I would recommend those deciding between the regular Cloudventure and the Waterproof to go for the regular one. The waterproof function of the shoe was cancelled out by its grip on flat surfaces.

These are some of the best trail shoes I have ever worn. I ran a trail half marathon with these essentially right out of the box. Zero break-in period. I love to hike and backpack so I sized up about a half size - more room for swelling feet. My feet have plenty of room and tend to move around a bit, but there is no concern of blistering. While some like/require heavy hiking boots, I prefer comfort and minimal weight. I have completed wilderness hikes in the snow and ice and my feet remained warm and dry at all times. They do tend to squeak a little bit when wet, but a minor drawback considering their excellent grip and comfort. A+ design! I will definitely be a repeat customer. Road shoes are next!

After looking at the reviews i decided to go ahead and purchase a pair, boy i was not disappointed either i first used them out in Canada in a skiing resort and they really do grip. I have also used them back in the UK running through trails and you can not fault them. they do not over heat your foot and vice versa in the cold too i will be getting another pair!

Keep up the good work ON.
