"Men's Topo Athletic® Atmos 2: The Topo Athletic® Atmos 2 is a max-cushion neutral running shoe built for men who want a soft, responsive ride on daily miles and long runs without carrying extra weight on their feet. With a 5 mm heel-to-toe drop and a full-length ZipFoam™ midsole, it cushions every step while returning enough energy to keep your stride feeling light and forward-moving. At 9.9 ounces, it sits in a comfortable range for a high-cushion shoe, and the updated outsole adds traction without adding bulk.The recycled engineered mesh upper wraps your foot in a breathable, secure fit that holds well through longer efforts without feeling restrictive. If you tend to run in a neutral shoe and want cushioning that absorbs road impact without making the ride feel heavy or slow, the Atmos 2 is worth a close look. The 5 mm drop keeps the geometry natural underfoot, which works well for runners who prefer a moderate heel-to-toe transition rather than a steep drop or a fully flat platform.Why Our Fit Experts Love This Shoe""I put these on for a longer easy run and was surprised by how light they felt given the amount of cushioning. The ZipFoam™ has a soft landing but doesn't feel dead - there's a little bounce that keeps things moving. The fit through the upper is snug without being tight, which I really appreciated by mile eight."" - Sean, Road Runner Sports Fit Expert, Chula Vista, CAWho It's Best ForIf you're a neutral runner logging daily miles or long runs and want max cushioning that doesn't sacrifice responsiveness, the Atmos 2 is a strong fit.
