PAJ89 3 Aug 12:27pm, 3 Aug 2023 114 posts	0 PAJ89 Just an input on Topo, have had a very good experience in their Specter show, which is positioned as a performance trainer. That particular model isn't minimal though (5mm drop but high-ish stack). Toe box is fantastic though. I still love Altra and consider them my favourite brand, but if you've got any concerns on toebox on Altra models starting to get a bit narrower, shouldn't have that issue with Topo. Not tried any trail options but would be keen to.

I'm wearing out the soles before the uppers give way (I have had to repair a hole in the mesh where the toes flex on a couple of pairs).
