I mostly walk my dog in my Topos. I have a lower back issue and I feel so secure & balanced in these perfectly light weight, roomy toed, well cushioned & supportive shoes! Great price as well. Bravo!

I usually wear a 9 1/2 but these fit me well. I love the low profile and wide footbed! There is not a lot of cushioning- but that’s what I was looking for! Please please Topo- make these in cooler colors!!!

The most comfortable shoe on the planet. Great for all walk, a hike, and all day. Bought both a white and black pair.

I really liked the look of these, not as clunky or ugly as other zero drop shoes. They were also quite comfy. But the toe box is very wide and bulbous. I tripped over the big round box and returned. Very disappointed that this pair didn’t work for me.

I love how this shoe feels. In my opinion, it ran just a little small, so I am exchanging it for a 1/2 size bigger.

I love everything about Topos. This is a shoe I can put on and go out for a two hour run or more the first time wearing them, they are that amazing! Thank you so much for creating such a conscious shoe that is affordable and looks great and most importantly fits like a glove. :) I recommend Topos for those who are looking to take their movement to the next level with their gear. I keep trying different models, and I love the roomy toe box on all of them due to the fact that I have a wide foot. #sweepstakes

I have been a Topo fan for several years now. While I've mostly had higher stacked shoes, I finally was ready to order the ST-5 and I'm so happy I did! I have several pairs of shoes (all Topo) and find myself grabbing these over the other options. I haven't run more than 7 miles at a time in these yet, but love them! I always order larger than a street shoe and find I wear my regular running shoe size in these as well. I have almost 100 miles so far and look forward to many more. Thanks Topo Athletic!!

I bought these sneakers with the expectation that I'd be wearing them as "fashion shoes" while out to social events, etc. Instead, these became my semi-daily drivers for long walks, which completely took me by surprise as I previously wore the Phantom, which has more structure and stack height that I wrongly thought I needed. Definitely a 5-star shoe, especially if you have bunions; do wish there were more colors (and, a heads up: the "gray" is really more of a faded white).

Super comfortable yet supportive shoes. I love zero drop shoes for walking and casual use. I am on my feet all day or walking by dogs before and after work. The zero drop on these shoes make a huge difference in comfort, they are light weight, and look good too! Plenty of width for natural toe push off. I do not use these for running though. I use the Topo Cyclone for running and highly recommend them too.

I bought these as my wear around town/short walks/errand shoes, and they're perfect. Comfortable, secure fit, light and not bulky. I definitely have lots of ground feel. I would find them too minimal for running or hiking but I prefer moderate. The only negative is that the laces are short and if I needed a heel lock that might be a problem. Fit was as expected and consistent with my other Topos.

I have been a Topo fan for about 8 months but lately I have transitioned towards the zero drop shoe. So glad to find the ST5 model. They work great for me. I do have to buy a half size larger than I normally wear. I love them.

Awesome shoes for my wide foot. When you find a good fit, you order a second pair which I plan to do.

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

Fits well,. I like the wide toe box. A little shallow in the heel. Definiitely runs small. You need at least a 1/2 size larger as they run small.

Weird shoes to me. Yes wide where the toes are but narrow in that widest spot of your feet, where foot and toes connect. Plus they look funny to me with that super wide toe box, looks way worse in person, not stylish at all.

I just love the wonderful room for toes. I have sensitive spots between my toes, and this is not a problem when I wear my Topos.

Altra lovers--consider these! After Altra modified the entire style of the Rivera (made it narrow and like a HOKA but kept the same name (!??!), I set out to find a replacement gym shoe. These Topos have the very wide toe box and zero drop I wanted from OG Altras. The wide toe box is what makes them feel very generously wide. You can feel some extra fabric/"bulk" there when your foot bends. I am getting used to that. Note: the gray color reads very white in real life.

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.

I have been wearing the topo ST model of shoes from the very first original ST model and I will be beyond sad if they ever stop producing this shoe!!! If you want a more minimal shoe with a wide toe box then this is the shoe for you! I feel like the ST-5 makes some improvements on what the ST-3/ST-4 provided, especially the stitching on the shoe, I was always tearing holes in the sides of the 3s/4s but the ST-5 seems to have a better stitching pattern to prevent this. The only real note I have on the shoe is that if you order the 'grey' color it is essentially white. I wear my ST's on dirt trails sometimes as well and they are now so dirty and it really shows on the white.
