Women's Topo Ultraventure 4 - High Cushion Trail Shoe

TOPO Athletics does a lot of things right with trail running footwear. One thing they excel at is not updating and making changes that aren't needed. Other brands take note. That's why the Women's Topo Ultraventure 4 brings everything you loved about the previous edition with a significantly improved upper.    Details  The Women's Topo Athletic Ultraventure 4 is the same high cushion all-terrain trail shoe customers in and around Salida, Colorado have come to love. It has a wide forefoot, snug mid foot and secure heel. The Topo Athletic Ultraventure 4 retains the famous ZipFoam™ midsole keeping it responsive and lightweight. You can rely on the Vibram® XS Trek EVO Outsole to keep your foot secure on loose terrain and transition smoothly over hard surfaces. The biggest complaint about the previous edition was the durability of the upper from runners, thru-hikers on the Colorado Trail and Continental Divide Trail on technical terrain. Topo has retained a lightweight and breathable recycled mesh upper but placed polyurethane on overlays critical areas to prevent rips and tears in the mesh. Topo has done what most brands refuse to do by keeping everything that was good about Women's Topo Ultraventure and simply updating the mesh that users were critical about.   Technologies   ·Vibram® XS Trek EVO Outsole Vibram® XS TREK EVO is a technical compound is one of Vibram®'s most durable but remains flexible on variable terrain and grips terrifically in wet areas. It is no-marking compound that can be used in indoor surfaces such as a gym floor.
