So comfortable and no need to break in
For the past few years I've been wearing Altra Timp's, because of their wide toe box. But after intense use it was time to buy a new pair. I tried on the newest Altra Timp 5 and I noticed they don't have this nice wide toe box anymore. That's when I started doing some research. I read the reviews here for the Topo Ultraventure 4 and someone noted the wide toe box comparable to the Altra's. So I pulled the trigger and bought a pair of the Topo Ultraventure 4's.They are awesome! When I received them, I just had a camping weekend ahead of me, so I brought my new shoes to go hike in. They delivered! I used them the whole weekend without any issues; no blisters, no need to break them in. They are so lightweight too.What I also like is the traction. The soles of my old shoes were worn out and lost their grip. These are grippy!I've had my shoes for about 3 weeks now and last Saturday I walked 32K steps with them without any problems. Besides how comfortable they are, I really like the color combination of the purple and teal, because they are my favorite colors.I usually wear a size 9.5, but for hiking shoes I always size up a bit to make sure I have enough room in the toe box when I go on long hikes and my feet get swollen a bit. So I bought these in size 10 and they are perfect size for me.

Super Comfortable, Wide toe box and great arch support.
Where have these shoes been my whole life? I suffer from osteoarthritis in my big toes, and finding shoes that don't hurt, or have a wide enough toe box has been so hard. These running shoes are AMAZING! Very comfortable. Fit great. and the shoe quality is fantastic. The support inside the shoe is very thick and comfortable. If you have wide feet, I would try the regular size before going to a wide, because the toe box has a lot of room. I'm glad I didn't size up to a wide. I think they would have been too big.

Great fit, supportive, low drop, roomy toe, good looking too!
I have been wearing Topo Athletic Phantom 2 or 3 for some years.The Topo brand was originally suggested by my Podiatrist because of the lower drop and the wider toe (Morton's Neuroma).This year, the Phantom 4 was not a good fit. I decided to check out the Ultraventure 4-- and it's a great fit! The shoe is snug and supportive around the arch and heel and it has the traditional roomy toe area that Topo is known for. This particular shoe also has tread for walking outdoors. I think that will be an added plus for walking my dog on various surfaces and in weather conditions. On top of all that, they're a nice looking shoe!

GREAT! Super comfortable for wide feet/narrow heels
LOVE these shoes. I have a wide toe box but "normal" heel size, so these Topos are perfect. Usually when you buy "wide" size shoes, the whole shoe is wide and my heels slip causing blisters/discomfort. But these fit beautifully and the laces are very responsive, so you an adjust as needed. Also, I really like the combination of stability, squishiness and grip of the soles. The Atmos were way tooooooo squishy. I felt like I was walking on a bag of marshmallows, which sounds really comfortable, but instead it felt unstable, like I was not really sure-footed as I was walking (and I also lost my balance at one point and did a total face-plant). These shoes have enough cushioning to absorb your gait, but not so much as to feel unstable. I also like the traction - great for slippery surfaces. All in all, great shoes. Love them.

My best travel shoes
Love these shoes! Been traveling in Europe with them for 7 months. They have served me well in walking, running, and exercising (although I do also wear insoles in them for extra arch support). Really comfy and great for my wide feet- the toe box is very spacious.
