South Africa is home to some of the most spectacular trail runs, with our country having many diverse routes and terrains for active outdoor-loving people.

The right shoes to help you stay on track

To explore the best trail run routes in South Africa, where rugged terrains, breathtakingly beautiful landscapes, and exhilarating challenges await runners and walkers, you need the right shoes. The right footwear is essential. The trail shoes you choose should be more than just a gear; they are your companions on the journey. If your goal is to push your limits, or simply get your heart rate up, you will need trail shoes that are comfortable, durable and provide the right support when navigating challenging trails.

Meet the Cloudultra from On - where comfort meets endurance

As one of the most comfortable and durable trail running shoes, the Cloudultra has been designed to tackle all terrain types. This On shoe is known for its ability to deliver smooth and comfortable performances – particularly on trails that can be hard on your feet. Designed for off-road training, long-distance trail running, race days, and all-day walking, the Cloudultra shoe is truly versatile enough to handle any terrain!

Go the distance

Reviews from South African runners highlight the shoe's ability to offer exceptional comfort. The softer Helion™ superfoam and TPU Speedboard® in the sole deliver unparalleled support and energy return that will support your feet throughout the day. These two key elements create the cushioning system that is engineered to absorb impact and provide a responsive bounce, allowing for a smooth and comfortable ride on any terrain.

Additionally, the Cloudultra is known for its durability. Constructed with high-quality materials, this shoe can withstand the toughest of trails. The outsole features Missiongrip™ - a durable rubber compound that offers excellent traction and grip, ensuring stability and confidence with every step. Whether you're running on rocky terrains or muddy paths, the Cloudultra will keep you comfortable, while delivering the performance you’d expect from a premium trail running shoe.

Effort becomes effortless

Another standout feature of the Cloudultra is its lightweight design. On has managed to create a shoe that feels incredibly light on the feet, ensuring you experience effortless movement and agility.

The men’s shoes weigh 295g and the lady's shoe weighs just 245g with an 8mm heel-toe drop. This is particularly important for trail runners who need to navigate uneven surfaces and quick changes in direction. The Cloudultra's lightweight construction enhances performance and reduces fatigue, making it a top choice for long-distance runners.

The Cloudultra boasts a sleek and stylish design thereby appealing to both seasoned athletes and casual runners.
