New Year Fitness Review: Topo Athletic Tribute Shoes

Like most travelers, I hate paying checked bag fees so am always trying to squash as much stuff as possible into my carry-on. Shoes are the worst problem – it’s very hard to fit even one pair in my hand luggage, let alone two. The Topo Athletic Tribute shoes are the lightest, most packable shoes I’ve found yet. They pack almost flat and weigh only a few ounces. The breathable mesh upper is designed to keep feet a comfortable temperature, and evaporate sweat so your luggage doesn’t end up smelling like dirty gym shoes.

My new Topos have enough support that I’ve used them for jumping rope and doing step aerobics, as well as lifting weights. Ideally I like even more support, so they won’t replace my everyday at-home shoes. But for traveling? They’re definitely winners.Topo Athletic Tribute
