Comfortable quality shoes
I bought these shoes for warm weather hikes and was prepared to not like them. I always wear high waterproof hikers, but wanted cooler feet and quicker dry time. I was really surprised how great these shoes are. I’m size 11 medium in everything and they fit perfectly. The toe room is unbelievable and they fit snug around the mid foot/heal and ankle so no need for a death grip on the laces. I always double knot my laces, but these ones stay tied with just a single knot. The vibram soles have terrific traction and the flat footbed has just enough cushion and support to be comfortable on rocky trails. Light as a feather, flexible, they dry fast and look good, no clown shoe vibes. I am duly impressed and willing to admit my days of heavy high top hikers may be over for at least the summer weather. I recommend these Topo shoes highly.

New Topo Fan!
I made the leap to leave my hiking boots behind and trade them for these hiking shoes. Maybe my best hiking decision in a long time. I have Morton's neuroma, so I was nervous about making the change, but I can't be happier with the results. I hiked 175 miles on the Appalachian Trail (mainly Southern Maine), and it was a very difficult, rocky portion of the trail. My shoes were perfect. No blisters. Great support. Lightweight and dries quickly. I'll be hiking in Topos from now on.

Super comfortable
Great fit and super comfortable right out of the box. Wider toe box great for days when you're on your feet a lot. Vibram sole is great on a variety of surfaces.

Great shoe with massive limitation!
Great shoe with massive limitation! I typically wear a size 8.5 to 9 wide, which is why the wide toe box is appealing on these shoes. This size 9 fits fine, except for the fact that it gets very narrow right at mid foot and the volume from bottom of toes to top of foot is made for a 80lb female! There's simply no way a normal man's foot with socks on can fit inside of this shoe with any level of comfort. Maybe they stretch a bit with use, but then you're splitting out the shoe unnecessarily fast. Really wanted to love these, they're simply not made for a normal foot, unless maybe you size up 1 or 2 shoe sizes.

Comfortable
Men's Topo Traverse size 12. Narrow mid foot (and I have narrow feet). Supplied insole was terrible, as in most shoes. No arch support and really uncomfortable step. Replaced with old Spenco cross-trainer insoles and fixed problem.Plenty of room in the toe box. Material above toes is thin. Made sure to file my nails well to avoid damaging materials.Why 5*? Because they saved my feet walking city concrete for a week vacation. They held up where I would have been suffering in my Keens.Good shoes, but they could be much better. Make material stronger, insole better, offer normal shoe colors

Perfect durable hiking shoe for my fat toes
Just completed the 170+mi Tahoe Rim Trail in these. They held up very well!Width:I’ve found I need a wide toe box. I’ve tried many shoes including Hoka and my pinky and large toes always end up with blisters on the outside where they rub against the shoe. These didn’t!Sizing:I normally wear 10.5. I sized up to 11 so I could wear Injinji liners with Darn Tough socks. This combo worked well for my toes, however after putting on significant miles I developed some heel slippage blisters. I think I will stick with this combo and use heel lock lacing and leukotape to prevent that problem.Durability:I’d say these were quite durable. Rubber outsole at the toe is not peeling off like I’ve heard from other models. Besides some expected tread wear, the only thing noticeable is wear on the inside of the upper heel.Conclusion:Will probably buy again.
