After multiple foot surgeries and gait problems these are the best athletic shoes I have found and can rarely wear any other shoes- which is why I would love it if they made some more neutral colors to go with more outfits- please make some skin tone varieties and muted earth tones so I can pair these with ALL my outfits and not just running/athletic wear

I love the wide toe box that allows my feet to expand during long trail runs. Overall they feel great. The one problem I'm having is that they seem to expand within a few miles of running - they had loosened so much, I had to tighten them twice during a 14 mile run.

One pair for my indoor workout shoes at the gym, the second pair for outdoor walking. The most comfortable athletic shoes I've owned. Roomy are upfront for toes and good support all over!

I use my Magniflys for road running. Great responsive feel and secure fit but still comfortable and with enough room in the toe box for my giant bunions. My only wish would be for a 0 drop option.

Eliminated my foot pain. I've had persistent pain in the ball of my foot when I run for several months. Not anymore!!

I wear these shoes for my 12+ hour shifts as a nurse. I love the zero drop and wide toe box. They are so comfortable. My only problem is that I've had them for a few weeks and the rubber on the toe has already come unglued. For the price, I feel like the quality should be a lot better. Other than that, I definitely love these shoes!

These shoes felt nice and sturdy. Has to return bc I felt like they made my heels fall off the shoe. Probably perfect for certain feet but not mine.
Beautiful color, great laces.

I really like the feel and the cushion. I think they will be good for shorter runs. Not sure I could wear them for longer mileage yet. I would recommend them. The wider toe box is definitely a plus.

I love the shape of the front and the zero drop. My only complaint is that the heel 'huggers' are a little squeezey on my Achilles' tendon when I first wear them...they broke in fine, but at the expense of the fabric on those spots. Hoping they ease off of that in the next iteration!

This is my 4th pair of the Magnifly 3s. I have 2 pair of the Iris/Coral and one of the Rust/Gold. I noticed that the Emerald/Sky has a slightly different fit than my previous pairs. I would give my 1st pairs a 5 star review - but because of the calf and ankle fatigue I experienced with the new pair, I'm only giving it a 4 star. (Maybe these were assembled in a different location from the others?) I use the Magnifly 3 for my tempo runs and long distance. I'll be running my first 50 miler next week. I know the Magnifly will serve me well, once again.

For my cushioned shoes, I previously ran in Altras, and I like the fit of these better wide forefoot, which I need, but less of a sloppy feel.
However, compared to my go-to FiveFingers, these make my feet feel sluggish, not springy, particularly when I first start out. A few kilometers in I notice them less, so they will definitely be my go-tos for longer runs when I want to cushion my feet more.

The fit is great, the comfort is great. Only improvement request is to make them lighter for runners

A simple shoe. If you are looking for a very basic zero drop shoe then this may be it. Topo's version of Altra's Escalante.

I wanted a zero drop shoe, and tried Altra, but I didn't like the lack of arch support. I then tried the Topo, and once I got the right size, they felt like magic (wide toe box, arch support, fitted heel), I did find the material/padding on the back a little too high for my liking, but not a deal breaker, i did have to get use to it though. As i said, once I got the right size, in all other running sneakers I wear a size 8, in these, an 8.5.

I really like the extra toe room. My last pair I thought the sole wore out a little quickly, so tbd with this pair. I mainly walk on a blacktop path several miles each day

I have been wearing Altra running shoes and like the wide toe box. I wasn't happy with one of their new styles, so looked to see what other brands might be my next shoe. Topo also has the wider toe box (great for people with bunions) and zero drop. I like that they offer 30 day risk free to try their shoes. I ended up having to order a full size up from normal shoes size. Once I got the larger size, I do like how they feel good on my feet during my runs.
I wish they had more fun colors instead of the basic colors, but that is not a deal breaker.

I really like these shoes, very comfortable, light, cushioning, and good support. Unfortunately, the boxed toe ends with an edge that my big toes touch, creating the probability of toe jamming with exercise. I am a true 8.5 medium shoe size and have not had this problem with athletic shoes before. I'm returning these and ordering a half size larger.

Ordered these as soon as the email promo arrived because the Magnifly2 is fantastic -long lasting, durable, comfortable, quality, well made, sporty, colorful and priced right. Have 2 pairs of Magnifly2, first at 225 miles and retired; 2nd now at 195 miles and still going strong. Wanted to see if this new version was worthy and it is! All the same qualities as Magnifly2, but these feel lighter and are even more comfortable out of the box. A hair cushier and a hair less rigid than the 2s. These do keep my feet warmer at the end of a session, so not sure how that will work in the FL summer in 2020. Will re-review at that point. Did not have the sizing issue others report but my sister did.

I love the toe box, and comfortable feel on the bridge of my foot. This is my 3 pair of TOPO tennis shoes.
these feel a half size smaller than my Ultrafly 3's. Bought them because they were on sale. Couldn't return. I love TOPO's but will go back to my Ultrafly's next time.

I am a Topo fan but Magnifly does not have as stable a footbed as the Mtn Racer. It is important to figure out which style works best with Topos. I absolutely love two previous pairs and they have lasted many years. I have bunions and other cranky foot issues. This seems to be the best brand for my poor little feet. I do order a half size bigger to accommodate for age related feet and the New England terrain. Don’t give up on this brand with roomy toe box. Worth it!

I wanted to live these shoes, the seemed like the perfect pair for my wide front foot and narrow heel, and they were great for the first month or so of wear. But, now, I can't even wear them for half a day with out getting terrible pains in my knees and feet. Thinking this pain was from something else, I continued wearing these shoes until I noticed the front part of my foot slides around ALOT as I'm walking (heels stay put). Theres just too much side to side movement and a "tall" footbed, the ball of my foot and toes are just out there with no support. I even tried adjusting the laces, no help. I went back to my old shoes, and the pain is gone. I'm a steady size 6 lengthwise, a perfect thumbs width from the end, but these are just too wide in the front, so sad :(

I typically wear a 7.5 which is what I initially ordered in this shoe. It was definitely too small and exchanged for an 8 in red. The 8 still seemed a hair short but has not caused any problems over 400mi. I like the secure fit through the mid foot which gives me more confidence in technical terrain and on the down hill. I just ordered another pair in size 8, this time in green just so I could keep track of which shoes had more miles on them. Fit is completely different, the shoe is longer and wider, higher volume. Double checked the labeling in both shoes to be sure they are the same model and size. Cosmetics/materials are the same. What's up with that? Super frustrated. This would be my "go to" shoe and would probably recommend the shoe if I knew what size to get. Afraid to order another pair.
