Simple but so comfortable and perfect fit

Anonymous runner · Oct 30, 2024

4/5

Overall

Topo's wide toe box but snug midfoot and heel it perfect for the shape of my foot (and many other female feet). There's nothing flashy or fancy about this shoe, including the appearance. It is simple but the perfect fit and responsive feel make it one of my favorite daily trainers. I use this shoe for easy days and often for non-technical trail runs. The one downside to this shoe is that I do feel like it loses its "pop" before most other shoes I run in. I don't track my mileage, but I would estimate after about 300 miles, this shoe starts to feel a little dead and I will use it only for trail runs because it doesn't feel as good on the road anymore.
