How do you recover after Running & Cycling? Topo Athletic REKOVR is it!

Posted on August 21, 2018November 22, 2024

Topo Athletic’s latest mode, REKOVR, is a wool blend slip-on with massaging OrthoLite® footbed for active recovery. Topo Athletic believes that smart recovery is critical to any training program. That’s why they’re committed to developing footwear that will restore and rejuvenate the body between workouts.

The REKOVR will maximize your recovery days with a feature set designed to stimulate and restore a fatigued body though movement. The wool blend upper delivers moisture-wicking comfort and neutral stimulation with its 3D wave pattern. The 3mm drop platform sits on a lightly lugged sole for activities like walking, light hiking, travel, and casual use.

Don’t mistake the REKOVR for the other Topo Athletic multipurpose trainer, the COR. REKOVR is slightly heavier and higher drop. For a multipurpose recovery shoe, you won’t notice the difference as it is lighter and more comfortable than anything out there!

I’ve worn the REKOVR extensively in the past two weeks, walking miles every night with my dogs in addition to two long (12+ hours) drives across two states in the West Coast. You have to experience the massaging comfort of the OrthoLite® footbed to appreciate it! My favorite part is that I can wear it WITHOUT socks everywhere – the wool-blend uppers are antimicrobial. The durable lugged outsole does not limit you to any terrain thus making it a perfect travel shoe too – what more can I asked for? A single shoe that can tackle recovery, walking, light hiking, city strolling, driving, and much more – truly multi-functional…

The fit is amazing – it reminded me of the original Speed Trainer (ST) that Topo Athletic launched over 5 years ago – the BEST minimalist running shoe EVER in my opinion. It had a glove-like fit that cradled my feet and coupled that with a wide forefoot, lightweight, zero drop, and cool uppers, it was heaven. I still have an extra pair that I barely use for running – for my shoe museum. Now the REKOVR is likely joining that rank as it is perfect for MY feet!

NOTE:

The REKOVR is meant to be worn without socks for better neural stimulation. If you plan to wear socks with this model, we recommend sizing up by one half size.

Available in many colorways both both men and women directly from Topo Athletic or your local running specialty stores.
