Sturdy trail runner - the rock plate needs improvement
I keep both Altra and Topo shoes in stock - I run trails on gnarly, rocky, technical mountain bike trails in Northwest Arkansas. These are stiffer than the Ultraventure - they feel like they take a little breaking in by comparison, but not as stiff out of the box as the Mountain Racer. I was excited...

Looks good but too narrow
Really wanted to like these. I wear Altras, I need the wide toe box. These looked sturdier, better sole, and like they'd stand up to the rocks of the White Mtns NH. They were a bit tight through the toe box although comfortable otherwise. Thought they might break in but the more I wore them the mo...

A solid trail shoe. I like the firm but flexible build and find these perfect for running rocky PA trails. I will buy again when I wear these out.
The roomy toe box and light weight feel great

Comments about Ultraventure Pro
Wear them much more during summer season. Old pairs get saved for snowy road runs during the winter.
Soooo comfy and supportive.
I'm new to hiking and these shoes are soooo comfy and supportive. I can wear them hiking or to work at my PT job. They are also really cute and that's not nothing! Highly recommend Topos. I also have the running shoe and it's wonderful as well.

Comments about Ultraventure Pro
I would change nothing except a little more arch support. I have 4 pairs of these because I want to have the model last as long as possible for me. I do a lot of trails/hills. Have used for Grand Canyon Rim to Rim, Mount Whitney and all the local mountains. Best shoes ever for my 61 year old feet.
Great shoes for hiking!

Comments about Ultraventure Pro
I use my Ultraventure Pro shoes for hiking. They are very comfortable to wear for several hours, much more comfortable, and less heavy than hiking boots. I like the shoe's roomy toe box, and also the great traction that the Vibram soles provide. This is my first pair of Topo shoes and I plan to buy a replacement pair when this one wears out.

Comments about Ultraventure Pro
I am thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail and purchased these based on recommendations from fellow hikers when my higher-drop Solomons were causing tight Achilles. Just the right width (Altras are too wide for me!) and I love that they have a rock plate and Vibram sole. Only issue is that they fall apart quickly—a common trail practice is to line the seams with super glue from the very start to get more mileage out of each pair. It would be great if they were made a little more durable from the start.
This is the best trail shoe for comfort and traction
I wear my trail shoes for "everything outdoors- light hikes, trails, and other outdoor activities) They are very agile for the trails and provide adequate protection from light trail obstacles. Unfortunately I had a defective shoe but customer service was very responsive and corrected the issues. (This is my 3rd pair of TOPOs. My first 2 were Magnifly's which I dedicate to my treadmill.)
Great spacious toe box and secure overall feel

Comments about Ultraventure Pro
I wear them for light hiking--so far--and around my small town. They're so comfortable and supportive I don't want to take them off. My orthotics fit perfectly in them.
One of my favorite shoes for hiking
The wide toe box is honestly what makes this shoe for me. The fit is true to size and I've done several backpacking trips in them and they hold up. I only wish that there was a waterproof version I could buy!
