Narrow toe box
RachLexi8 months ago
I tried on the Topo Atmos in store and hoped the Specters had a similar toe box. They do not. I ran a 10k in them and my toes really suffered. I ended up having to exchange them for the Atmos model anyway. If you don’t require a wide toe box these might work for you but the toe box is specifically why I chose Topo.

Perfect Sidewalking Shoes

3 mile hike no pain at all so did a 6 mile hike up & down hill on scree & road thru several trail & no pain, but this does better on the road & not on trail as there's no lug but a wonderful foam that grips to road. Both hikes with Injinji toe LINER socks as since I gain weight I'm now in between a 7 and a 7.5 but 7.5 make me trip so hard to find the right 7 shoe size unless I wear liner socks no cushion. Ran in them & notice less stress on my joints. Heel stick is like I'm on a cloud actually hiking is like I'm on a cloud. They are wonderful, & love the white color as it goes with everything even my skirt! Wear these when walking with friends & not on mountains or trails 7 med fit but wish they had wide sizes. Thank you Topo! Please keep making them but include wide sizes like some of your other shoes please. 5'2 160

What I’ve been looking for

Great: really big toe box, arch support, cushioning, standard drop. This shoe really helps me avoid nerve pain due to back issues. I can spread my toes and get more control. Most shoes are uncomfortable at some point. I like the amount of cushioning and arch support.

Perfect hikes on roads but not on trails

Very comfortable. I'm usually a wide but they didn't have these in wide so got the medium 7 and they fit perfectly. So much room in the your box yet stays firm & steady. Lightweight & white goes with everything

It’s just ok, foam is springy and responsive, not what I was looking for in a stability shoe. Toe box is nice and big, but my knees hurt after prolonged use, and I only wear them indoors.

Disappointed that the Shoes arrived already worn. Very surprised that REI would sell worn shoes as new, have never had a quality issue with any prior purchases!

Perfect balance of wide toe box and snug on heel
3 months ago
Bought these to get back into running and love them! No foot, knee, or other pain. My Dr & PT recommended this brand, with an ideal heel to toe drop, cushion, and wide toe box but still hugging the arch and heel. I did go up a half size for running. If I were only walking in these I could have gone back down a half size, but appreciate the extra room for my toes. The half size up made them feel a little more like clown shoes, but they work well! My favorite running shoes, will stick with this brand and model.

Roomy Toe Box, Good Cushioning
2 months ago
These have a roomy toe box and have adequate cushioning. I am using them for road running. I was hesitate because i've never tried this brand before but seems to be working out well and holding up fine. I ordered a second pair on the next sale. I would recommend trying this brand out. They run True to Size.
