Better than Altra? Topo Atmos Max Cushion Initial Review

Is the Topo Athletic Atmos the ultimate max-cushion road shoe? I’m a little late to the party, but after 170km (and using them to save my feet at the end of a 139km ultra!), I’m finally ready to give my full verdict on the Topo Atmos. In this video, I break down the specs, the incredible comfort, and the one specific issue with the arch that might be a dealbreaker for some runners. If you are looking for a wide toe box and high stack height to replace your Altra FwD Flows, this might be the shoe for you. 👟 SHOE SPECS (Size 44.5 EU): Weight: 290g Drop: 5mm Stack Height: 38mm (Heel) / 33mm (Forefoot) Midsole: EVA Blend Price Paid: €126 📝 KEY TAKEAWAYS: The Good: The lockdown is excellent, and the cushioning is responsive yet soft. It’s genuinely one of the most comfortable uppers I’ve worn in years. The Bad: The "Topo Arch" is back. If you have flat feet or are sensitive to arch support, be aware. Also, it’s not the most agile shoe for fast cornering. DISCLAIMER: I bought these shoes with my own money from bergfreund.eu. I am not sponsored by Topo Athletic, and all opinions in this video are 100% my own. 👇 DROP A COMMENT: Have you tried the Atmos? Does the high arch bother you, or do you prefer that extra support?
