“I had been running in tennis shoes, and changing to proper running shoes has been lovely. These are well-made and super comfortable. I think the sizing is tricky to judge. I have gone for a full size above my normal shoe size, and I would say that is the right choice for me. But there is a slight slippage in one of my feet in the shoe (my smaller foot) which I don't think is worth going down a size (it would just give me a new problem with my other foot), and is partly just about design. But overall they are excellent.”
“This shoe (and Topo) is a revelation! It is the shoe that I have been looking for for years. I have a lot of problems with knees so like the thick mid-sole. Really comfortable for long runs with good cushioning, durable outsole and roomy toe box (bit like the shoes I used to wear as a child!). I like the Topo trail shoes too!”
“After having lots of problems with bruised, sore toes I contacted Northern Runner and spoke to Charlie via email. Like a lot people my feet don't conform to the standard fit and, although not particularly wide, are square at the toes so pointed shoes never work for me. I was recommended a few choices in specific sizes and ended up with the Topo shoes. They are brilliant - well cushioned for long runs, very stable around corners and on rough ground, but also fast enough for what I want to achieve in 5K and 10K. Nearly 100K in two weeks and my toes are feeling better than ever. Great shoes, great service!”
