Best praise vs top criticism for Topo Athletic Cyclone 2
“Topo Cyclone 2. Same type of light, nimble, fast shoe, with an awesome low stack full Peba midsole.”
“I am trying to love these, but am having a difficult time. Looking for a solid pebax sole after shredding a couple pairs of Cyclone 2s. I normally wear a size (US) 10, but it was too small. The 10.5 is a bit too large. I wish they made this shoe in quarter increment sizes. Added some aftermarket insoles but the first were too short. I just received a replacement in the next size up and will give it another shot tomorrow. Thanks for all the input.”
