MTN Racer 2
Product Overview
The Topo Athletic MTN Racer 2 takes on technical trails, in a lightweight, nimble, and rugged package. The second edition of these shoe for trail running and racing features a new mesh upper with increased breathability. We added an external TPU heel counter to keep the foot locked in over the platform for a stable ride. The updated 3-piece midsole offers light guidance and now features ZipFoam™ for additional response underfoot. The durable Vibram® Megagrip outsole delivers the ultimate grip on any surface, wet or dry.

In The Press
This Will Be Up There As One of the Best Trail Shoes of 2021
"The midsole in the MTN Racer 2 is a new, lighter compound with varying densities. Overall, the ride is more of a moderately soft sensation, and it really rolls through the stride even when the going gets rough."
