Comments about ST-4
I wear my Topos at work (RN, emergency). I'm on my feet for 12 hours a day, walking almost constantly. My feet have never felt better since finding Topos! The wide tow box and zero drop make these the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. Thanks Topo!
This shoe is amazing! It has a very roomy toe box.

I use my ST 4's in the gym for weight lifting, on the trail for walks, and daily at work as a nurse. Unbelievably comfortable and feels like a hug on your foot. Almost like you are wearing a slipper. I ordered a 2nd pair so I can switch between the blue and black. My favorite shoe ever!
Comfortable and light weight

Comments about ST-4
This is my second pair of Topos and they are immediately comfortable just like my first pair. I wear these for urban walks mostly on pavement or dirt/gravel trails. They may be a little thin soled for long walks; last week I took a 6-mile walk in them, the longest walk so far. The bottoms of my feet were pretty sore by the end. Otherwise I love them!
Very comfy shoes. I love them!

Comments about ST-4
I use them for everything. I've walked about 50 mi in them so far, have not yet run in them. At first they seemed more stiff than the ST-3s but now they are breaking in so I can run in them. They have a little more structure than the ST-3s with a little more support on the medial side but I am a suppinator so that works well for me. Love the fit especially because I have a bunion on one foot. I don't wear any other shoe because they are so comfortable.
Roomy toe box gives me a better balance. Feels great running

Love the fit; the thicker shoe laces help keep the shoes tied.
Great shoe, runs small

Comments about ST-4
The ST-4 has a nice wide toe box and feels better on my entire foot than a previous version. I ordered my normal size and they were very snug in the toe box, they seem to run a half to a full size small. I love wearing these for gym training, mostly weights and HIIT.
Roomy toe box, but not good cushion

Comments about ST-4
I ordered size 8. My feet are 10 cm at the widest part of the toe box. My feet are 24 cm long. The toe box size is great! Much better than other Topo shoes I have tried which are really not that roomy. I'm in love with the roomy toe box because it's hard to find roomy toe boxes. I wanted a shoe with a lighter sole for track intervals. However there is not much cushion and I feel like I'll get shin splints or a stress fracture. So I wear these for interval work until I can find a better product.
Too rigid for minimalist shoe
Verified Buyer
Comments about ST-4
The sole is super rigid on the ST4. I wanted a truly minimalist, feel-the-ground sole like the ST2 was, and these are rigid and thicker than I expected. They're less padding than the fly-lite but not by much. I wanted a zero-drop minimalist super-flexible sole, and I prefer the sole on Xeros to this ST4---that's the super-flexibility I wanted. I LOVE my ST2s, I hope TOPO will go back to a more minimalist sole and upper for the ST5. Topo is my favorite, but this shoe isn't.
