Customer Reviews Topo Athletic ST-5

I wear these to work as a physical therapist. Very comfortable, posture is noticeably better with the zero drop, toes are roomy.

Love these, I am back for my third or forth pair (over several years). They are great. Head's up, the light grey is much lighter than the photo (unlike prior years where the grey was very nice). These read off white.

Over the last couple of years, I have ordered every brand of Shoe possible and return them until I bought this pair of shoes. I love them so much that I bought them in another color recently I left the barefoot feeling with just enough cushion and the wide toolbox has been extremely comfortable for my wide feet, if wearing socks that are a bit thick I would recommend going half a size up. I wear these shoes for Fitness classes, weight training, walking on the treadmill and most recently for Pickleball.

This pair of Topo's I wear casually and they are perfect. I also have 4 other pair I wear to gym and to run 8+ miles, several times a week. This brand is better than Hoka, On, Brooks, etc.

Last time I had and experience with shoes like this was 2001 with my first pair of Nike Free 3.0. Instant perfect EVERYTHING, this feeling has not happened since today when I put these on. Thank you Topo. In a world of too much cushion and bounce, this is soooo welcomed!.

I use these for everyday general wear and sometimes if I'm doing work/exercise around house I'll put these on instead of slippers because they are very comfortable and secure.

I had been wearing vibrams for the past 6 months to help strengthen my feet but really needed slightly more cushion. These deliver a barefoot feel with enough cushion without being too pillow-like. I cross train and run laps in my unfinished basement (so concrete floors). I appreciate that I can jump around without feeling like I'm going to slip sideways off a tall platform. I like the wide toebox so my toes have some room.

After one week of these I got rid of my Hokas altogether. I thought I'd want to switch back and forth, but these fit so well I only want to wear the Topos from now on. Love them!

Ok. It's an improvement on previous models. Better foam Better heel cup Closer to the ground

I've been wearing these shoes for years. I always love them and I like how they look. Until this version. There is too much rubber, it's thicker and wider - sticks out wider than the shoes. Why?????? I wanted a minimal feel, more than that, a minimal look. These are disappointing after years of loving them, I'm looking elsewhere. (I bought black, maybe the white sole isn't so bad on the grey, but the grey I bought last year was pretty much white. I miss the old darker grey. That felt good, not showy.)

I thought I might run in them but I think they aren't sturdy enough for that, but I love kicking around town in them. They look nice, are super comfy. I'm considering buying a different model that might be better suited for running.

I have 2 pairs, one I wear to work and one I wear for exercise. This pair (the ST-5) I wear to work. They feel great on my feet, they have just enough cushion but not too much. My only problem is the heel doesn't feel like it comes up high enough. It's like my heel is on the verge of slipping out, almost. It's weird untill I get used to it.

I use my Topos ST-5 in HITT and strength classes. I love that my toes splay and I feel grounded in this shoe. We occasionally run or do jumps and my feet feel protected for these short bursts of activity. #sweepstakes

I have a wide forefoot with narrow rear foot so these are the only sneakers for me. I cross train, lift, walk my dog in these sneakers. My second pair of Topos. I my only complaint is you need to be very carful to open the tongue wide as pressure against the heel edge makes it bunch up quickly. Learned that the hard way with my first pair. I got a lump in the heel cup area. No jamming them on!

Walking at work..haven't ran in them yet. Disappointed the color states grey, but they are white. These will e hard to keep clean.

These would be my all-time favorite running shoes except for the soles. I run in minimalist shoes. These are a perfect fit and very light. I run on pavement and gravel, and before my ST5's had 160 running miles to them, I wore a hole through one sole. I've ignored it for the past several weeks, as the insole gave enough protection to keep me from injury. But now, at 196 miles, they have become useless. I cannot afford to replace shoes so often. Sad to say goodbye to Topo's ST shoes. Landfill!!
