Blaze the trails with the new and improved Topo Athletic MT2

Posted on January 19, 2016November 22, 2024

The new MT2 uppers has a breathable mesh with stronger midfoot overlays and a fully gusseted tongue. The toe box is roomier and has a better fit for my foot than the original version.

Running hats from Skora and Topo Athletic

Posted on November 17, 2015November 22, 2024

The Pendulum Swings… Fat & Flat Running Shoes?

Posted on January 6, 2014November 22, 2024

There is a dangerous swing (in my opinion) in the running shoe pendulum from minimalist to maximalist running shoes for 2014. The pendulum swung the opposite direction a few years ago.
