    Topo Wearers!

    Loved your video! Thanks for sharing! I did a first test run in muy Ultraventure 3s at work this week. Wore them with wrightsocks for 6.5 hours straight and felt great. Very cushioned, super grippy, comfortable and breathable. I’m pretty happy with them so far! I ended up just going up half a...

    What pushed or invited or drew you to set off for 'The Camino'?

    Thank you for sharing this, and especially for your honesty and vulnerability. I really enjoyed your video, it has caused me to do some much needed reflection today 🙂

    Hi Wooz 👋 I am a size 8.5, but for summer hiking I take Altra Olympus 5’s in size 9 and Topo Ultraventure 3’s also in size 9. They fit the same for me!

    It will be interesting to see how well the Topos wear over 800 kms! They do seem to be a bit more delicate than my Hokas, Merrells, Keens and Salomons. Glad to hear that the Tevas are a great choice, too! 👍🏻

    I love Darn Tough and wear them a lot on hikes at home and while travelling. They seem to last forever! I haven’t used them in the summer as I switch to my wrightsocks in the heat. But I will look for a summer weight Darn Tough to try out. Thanks!

    I’m learned about Superfeet insoles through my Camino research. They seem very popular. I will have to try them out. Thanks 🙂

    Thanks for this, Betheymae! I’m glad to hear that going up a full size worked well (that’s what I have done, too) and that the tread held up well. Was the weather hot during your September walk?

    Thanks for this, Jo Jo. I do have some injinjis that I intend to bring. I have had good luck with my wrightsocks in hot summer hiking, but I see so many people comment on how effective the injinjis are. They’ll be in my pack, in case!

    Which Topo model did you wear, ShoshTrvls? Thanks for sharing your experience with the size, it’s very helpful!

    The Traverse look like a great shoe! Topos are not yet easy to find where I live, so it was really only a choice between the Ultraventure 3, the Terraventure, or the MTN 3. I would love to try the Traverse on to see how they feel!
