Customer Reviews Topo Athletic Phantom 2

Most comfortable walking and hiking shoes I've ever worn. I bought the TOPO walking shoes and hiking shoes.

Trying them in the house to be sure they are ok but so far I'm loving them. Recently had a total knee replacment and parts of my foot all have no feeling so the roomy toe box is Hugh right now. I tend to Supinate when walking and these seem to hold me in place. I have had a total hip replacment and now total knee and these are the best so far that I have found. Was lucky to find a local shoe place that carries them. Looking forward to getting them more in doors. So far I'm in love.

I would change nothing, I'm diabetic with foot issues and my feet don't hurt anymore after standing 8 hours a day.

These are used for my regular training runs.

This is my second pair of Topos, and the best, most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. Provides a solid, stable foot plant and a smooth toe-off, and the great cushioning makes it feel like I am floating on air. I love the roomy toe box--which is why I switched to Topos in the first place. This shoe's stability and cushioning have helped me recover from a series of stress injuries. My only concern is that the mesh upper will hold up. On my last pair of Topos, the mesh gave out way before the rest of the shoe showed any wear. Have you fixed that issue on the Phantom 2?

I bought the trail/hiking style for when we go on moderate hikes in the mountains or to wear on long walks with different terrain. I love the roomy toe box and how the laces can be tightened to hold my foot in place. I tried other brands for hiking and my feet were very uncomfortable. There is no need to "break" these shoes in, they feel great from the start!

I love my new topos. The size I got is perfect with no socks. I think I will go up a 1/2 size and buy another pair to have some to wear in the winter with socks.

First time I wore these shoes on a 6 miles arduous hike my feet felt amazing! Great grip! Highly recommend! .

I always tell people that Topos are the perfect mix of a Hoka and an Altra. The cushioning with the "truly" wide toe box is so comfortable. I don't even have to break a new pair in. They're just good to go right from the box. The only issue I've ever had with them is sizing. It can be tricky to find just the right size. I feel that they tend to run a little small... at least the Ultraventures do.

I struggled in the past w shoes that quickly became too wide in the last (midfoot), that I couldn't lace them well. These fit perfect as soon as I put them on and have remained a great fit ever since. Thanks So sad that the other pair I was waiting to add to my cart, didn't go up to a 10.5

I love the wide toe box. It allows my feet room to swell when it's hot and humid, and space to stay warm when it's cold!

They are super comfy. I love them so much that I have three pairs!

Use these daily. Love the space for my forefoot.

This particular model of Topo I use for road running, walking, and everyday use. This model pairs cushion with the perfect toe box. I use these in conjunction with the Ultaventures for hiking. Across the boards this brand delivers for every activity.

Perfect for light hiking with vibram sole that has good traction. Fit is very comfortable for my wide feet.

Love these Topos. The toe box is perfect. I have a bunion and these shoes were not an issue straight out of the box. The cushioning is marvelous. I am always on the quest for shoes that are comfortable and when I find ones that work and feel so goodl I get two of them....just purchased a second pair. Thank you!

These shoes are comfortable and are also really supportive. I alternate walking and hiking and they function so well for both. I was pleasantly surprised at how light and breathable they are.

This shoe is perfect for hiking in the mountains. Love the stability on uneven terrain and rocks. Super comfortable.

These shoes feel great right off the bat! I had been pretty loyal to the UltraFly 3s and am still alternating between those and my new Phantoms, but am really happy I gave these a try! I am between an 8 and an 8.5 and ordered an 8, which fit me well. I put them on and they felt right - love the toe box and they're still secure through the midfoot and heel. Excited to get some more miles in with them!

I'm 61 and have been running my whole life. I had a herniated disc operation years ago and my back began to hurt after I ran. These have not hurt my back !! I've worn zero drop shoes but these TOPO have a less drop also but are more stable and holds my foot more secure. Larger toe box is so great for my toes. I'm in Florida so it gets hot and feet swell so the toe box keeps my toes from cramming into the end of the shoe.

I am still testing out these shoes. But my first impression is... I like the roomy toe box and how secure my foot feels in the shoe. For me, the midfoot is a bit snug, so the material pinches a bit when I move - I'll wait to see how this fit feels over time. I want comfort and longevity out of a shoe, which is hard when your using them on granite and I am hopeful that Topo will deliver.

Wide toe box, feels very stable without the weight of a stability shoe super comfortable- absolutely LOVE them

Bought for the entire family

I bought the Vibe for walking my dogs and running errands. They are very comfortable and cool during the summer heat. The wide toe box feels amazing. And they're cute too! Even my teenager commented on them. I usually wear a size 8 in running shoes and bought the same size in the Vibe.

Favorite shoe ever! Let me know if Topo restocks the green color.
