Customer Reviews Topo Athletic Magnifly 5

These were my first pair of zero drop shoes and have since added 2 more pair of topos. Super comfortable right out of the box. I have what I would consider a normal foot shape and this wide toe box feels great, the heel still fits snug and feels secure. I don't use these for running/training, but instead reserve them for my work shoes as I stand for 10+ hours and these have been the only shoe I have had all day comfort in.

After injuring my foot/Plantar Fasciitis, I had a YouTube video of a foot doctor come up on my site. She talked about a healthy athletic shoe=zero drop, less plush, and wide at toes. She suggested some brand names. And so, I started looking and educating myself about barefoot shoes. I bought this shoe, hoping it would fit my narrow heel. I put these on and my first thought was, "Nice!" The shoe cradled my feet so beautifully. I walked around and I noticed most my pain in my foot disappeared! Awesome! I also noticed the heel area was fitting excellent; no sliding or rubbing. I had bought these for jogging and walking in our fields. I did wear them walking in the field and they were very good. But I feel like I need a different pair for more uneven terrain. And so, I will keep these for paths, road, and shopping. I am looking at another pair of Topos for uneven walking/ jogging, and hiking. I highly recommend these. My first pair of zero drop, barefoot shoes. I'm very happy.

These are so comfortable! They have cushioning in all the right places! I have arthritis in my big toe and they are supportive and doesn't irritate my toe. Took these for a 5 miler upon getting them and it was glorious!

These shoes are awesome. I especially love the pink color. I ended up buying a second pair in green. I'm using them for marathon training. I love the zero drop, wide toe box, low stack and that they're vegan! #sweepstakes

I really love these shoes, and I'm not just saying that for the sweepstakes! I learned about Topos from watching long distance hikers on You Tube, and they are everything I hoped they'd be. Extremely light and comfortable, with enough cushion and enough traction on the trail as well. The beautiful forest green color was the final selling point for me, because I always look for nature colors in my hiking clothes and gear.

Love this sneaker! I was wearing the Phantom 3 previously, but wanted to transition to a zero drop workout shoe. The Magnify 5 is perfect! I wear it for all of my workouts - running, cycling, ellipse and weight lifting. It's incredibly comfortable and enables my feet and ankles to continually be in the correct alignment. #sweepstakes

I usually find most athletic shoes too narrow but the toe box and level of cushioning are perfect. I wore these the first time on a trip with extensive walking and they felt great.

These are the second pair of STs I've purchased. I'm training for my fifth marathon and I use these shoes for my two weekly shorter runs on the treadmill and to do my strength training afterwards. I've had knee overuse injuries in the past so I make sure to purchase zero to low drop, low stack height shoes and there aren't all that many on the market. Topo always pulls through and I love that almost all their shoes are vegan. These shoes are flexible but not flimsy and have minimal cushion but it is def enough to soften the impact. Would def recommend and buy again. #sweepstakes

I bought these for Orange Theory indoor classes with mix of treadmill and weight work. This is the first time in years I have been able to walk/run without my orthotics inside. My toes can wiggle and my bunions have room too! Perfect moderate cushioning. #sweepstakes

I own 2 pair of Magnifly 4s. The Magnifly 5s feel a couple mm wider in the toe box; a roomy toe box is always a good thing IMO. The sole feels a bit firmer. I prefer the softer Magnifly 4s but think the Magnifly 5 probably last longer. The pink color is really more of a peach; I would have preferred a true pink but soft feminine colors are always a welcome addition to my collection. Overall, I am very pleased with these new shoes.

I'm new to Topo Athletic running shoes and saw them recommended for wide foot folks and had to give them a try. I love these shoes. Buh-bye Altra! I appreciate the wide, but not sloppy toe box and the upper that fits just right, it is super comfortable. The cushioning is perfect, bouncy but not squishy--makes running on concrete bike paths much more pleasant.

I hope Topo never changes the Magnifly as I can wear them right out the box for a long run with no issues! Sizing is perfect for me & fits my wide forefoot/narrow heel with no rubbing or blisters. Just the right bit of cushion for when I have to run on roads. #sweepstakes

I love the magnifly shoes. I am finding, though, in this latest iteration that the tongue is very stiff and causes some foot pain.

I was a huge fan of the Magnifly 3's and must have gone through at least 5 or 6 pairs. Was really disappointed with the 4's though as the fit didn't feel right and they just felt too soft and unresponsive. Got these expecting the same but was really pleasantly surprised. The zipfoam is a touch more firm (which I prefer) and feels less underfoot and this shoe has a nice rocker design to it which reminds me a lot of the ride on the 3's. Miles flowed effortlessly in this shoe on my first run and I had no trouble picking up the pace. As with my Cyclone 2's the fit feels a little bit long but not something that bothers me while running (the mag 3's ran a little shorter). It's nice to find a zero drop trainer that doesn't have a ridiculous stack height/overly-cushioned or isn't a barefoot shoe! Perfect!!!!!

I love the shoe. However, could we get some pretty colors??????

I feel like I've found the perfect hiking shoe for me with one exception. Can we have some colors outside of the green spectrum? I know bright fun colors are supposed to be out now but green and greener?

Very comfortable cushioned shoe. I like that the inside has no rough or scratchy seams. I have worn them without socks and had no issues. I have to swap out the insoles for my own inserts. Therefore my heel slips just slightly. Not an issue at all. I do not run in these shoes. I wear them for work as a nurse. I like that the extra toe height but maybe a little less. A bit bulbous looking. I have the dark grey and purple. Pleasantly surprised that the purple is brighter and prettier in person than picture on website

I use these daily. Love the roomy toe box but mid fit a bit small and my heel slips. Its better when using the heel slip lacing but sometimes it hurts the top of my foot doing that. Oh I got these in the purple color and it very pretty. I wish they made more options with darker soles. I like white but they get dirty roo quickly for my liking.

I do like the room in the toes when descending, I do think I should have did a half size smaller.

I use my topos mostly for lifting and some walking. I used to get something else with a zero drop not made anymore so sad! Please make these in plain black and plain white! I like this level of cushioning with the zero drop. I live in these shoes, but I just want a plain color. Topos saved my feet with the amazing toe box and zero drop options.

Love the toe box and cushioning.
