Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about your Topo Athletic gear.
How do Topo Athletic shoes differ from traditional running shoes?
Topo Athletic shoes feature a signature fit designed with a spacious toe box to allow toes to splay naturally, a secure midfoot and heel for stability, and low-drop platforms to encourage a more natural loading pattern during your stride.
What is your return policy for worn shoes?
We offer a 30-day trial period. If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you can return your shoes in any condition within 30 days of the purchase date for a full refund.
How long does shipping take within the United States?
Standard ground shipping typically takes 3 to 7 business days. We also offer expedited shipping options at checkout for those who need their gear sooner.
How should I clean and maintain my Topo shoes?
We recommend hand washing your shoes with cold water and a mild detergent. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources or sunlight; never put them in a washing machine or dryer.
Do you offer international shipping?
Currently, our website ships exclusively to addresses within the United States. However, we have various international distributors and retail partners globally to help you find our products abroad.
Which shoe should I choose for trail running versus road running?
For trails, we recommend models like the MTN Racer or Ultraventure which feature Vibram® outsoles for grip. For road running, models like the Phantom or Cyclone offer lightweight cushioning and optimized traction for pavement.
