"Men's Topo® Terraventure 5 GTX: If you want a waterproof trail running shoe that can also handle day hikes, the Terraventure 5 GTX from Topo Athletic is a lightweight, moderately cushioned option for technical terrain. This neutral shoe is made for getting outdoors when conditions turn wet and the trail gets rugged, with a protective ride that stays comfortable over long days.The 25 x 22 mm platform provides moderate cushioning, and a forefoot rock plate adds protection when the ground gets uneven. The GORE TEX Invisible Fit technology keeps water out without giving up the signature Topo fit. Underfoot, the Vibram Megagrip outsole offers traction and slip resistance. A dual mesh upper adds durability in high abrasion areas, and the shoe drains well in wet conditions. The FKT insole gives you a responsive step-in feel, and the gaiter system attaches with hook and loop.Why Our Fit Experts Love This Shoe""I took these out on a wet, rocky trail and noticed how secure the grip felt on slick sections. The rock plate up front took the edge off sharp spots, and the Topo fit still felt natural with the waterproof system. I would go up half a size."" - Michael, Road Runner Sports Fit Expert, Seattle WAWho It's Best ForIf you spend weekends on technical trails and want a waterproof shoe for trail runs or day hikes, the Terraventure 5 GTX is worth a look.
