πππ ππ : ππππ πππππ A brand-new trail shoe that isn't just an upgrade, but completely breaks away from the traditional TOPO feel.
.
> Let's start with the origin of the TOPO VISTA.
.
- The brand wanted to create a new trail shoe that offers both performance and foot support while maintaining its signature natural comfort ... All TOPO trail shoes are carbon-plate free, feature a wide forefoot, and offer a secure fit through the midfoot and heel that conforms to the shape of your foot.
.
> The newly tuned Zipfoam midsole is truly impressive!
.
Every model uses Zipfoam, but the density and responsiveness are tuned differently. This model is impressive because the foam feels more "firm and plush" than "soft and squishy," while still providing a noticeable bounce-back at toe-off ... making it a trail shoe I think will be a crowd favorite!
.
> Excellent stability
.
I'm quite impressed with the foot placement of almost every TOPO model, whether on the road or the trails. The brand designs its shoes to be less aggressive, prioritizing stability over pure speed ... Throughout my run on the Basecamp-Kala-View 1-Wat Phalat trail, my ankles didn't roll even once, even during the final section with lots of loose rocks. The foot placement was impressively secure.
.
> 4mm Vibram Megagrip outsole
.
The tread pattern is new and offers excellent grip, handling slippery surfaces with ease.
.
Two things to note:
1) Because the foam is firm, plush, and responsive, it's ideal for distances up to 50K. However, I think your feet will definitely get tired if you take it out for 100K, as you'll still need to use focus and effort to control your pace.
.
2) I think the forefoot is narrower than other models, but I could still wear my usual size. Those with a wide forefoot may need to size up.
.
In summary, every step feels incredibly secure. The foam is tuned to perfection, offering a truly new TOPO feel.

Price: 5,990 baht
