Comfortable for long runs

Anonymous runner · Jan 1, 2020

4/5

Overall

I've stated training for a half marathon -my first at the age of 44-and these shores are incredibly comfortable for long runs. The toe is wide to allow splaying and it is such a relief because my feet swell on long runs. I've found my new running shoe!

Topo Ultralfly 2

Anonymous runner · Jul 23, 2019

5/5

Overall

I like a wide toe box and low profile in a shoe. The topo meets these requirements. I am on my second pair so they are a good shoe, but they do seem to wear out quickly. I am only 115 lbs and run 20-30 miles a week. I am getting around 300 miles from a pair and I only wear them for running.

Favorite shoe I've ever run in

Anonymous runner · Jul 4, 2019

5/5

Overall

I have wide feet & a bunion on one foot, so the wide toe box is perfect for my foot. I have gone through 4 pairs and each have lasted about 400 miles before totally wearing out (the upper starts to fray and the cushion is depleted). Medium amount of cushion, which I like. Very comfortable and perfect for both long runs and track workouts.
