Customer Reviews Topo Athletic Trailventure 2 WP

I was so excited about getting these boots. They are my third pair of Topo footwear. I tried them indoors and they felt great. Unfortunately I only did the first hike aftet the return period had expired . That was a huge mistake. It was a rocky hike and several times I hit stones with the toe - there is no protection from that impact. I returned home with two big toes that were red and later turned black and both nail have now loosened from the toe. I wish I had looked more carefully at this boot before committing to them.

This past weekend I did an overnight hike on Mt Hood. The rain was extremely heavy at 5000' elevation even by Oregon standards. I wore the Trailventure 2 WP for the first time and my feet were soaked after a few miles of hiking. After close inspection of the eVent sock, I noticed a sewing stitch line on each side of the tongue gusset running down the full length of the tongue. Both my Asolo and Zamberlan boots do not have ANY stitch lines in the GTX bootie that would disrupt the waterproofness and always keep my feet dry. This is not how the Trailventure 2 WP are made.

Not waterproof, upper mesh wears down quickly, toe tip from the sole loose after a few days
