The Topo Athletic Phantom 4 is a max-cushioned, neutral road running shoe for daily miles, long runs, fitness walking and all-day wear. Comfortable from the first step, it's the easygoing everyday shoe for anyone whose toes like a little breathing room.

Who the Phantom 4 is for

For runners and walkers who want plenty of cushion and a toe box with space to spread out. Long weekend runs, easy days and errands all feel good in it, with a very roomy forefoot and a sleek, updated look. The ZipFoam midsole delivers a light, responsive ride, and an OrthoLite Performance insole adds step-in comfort.

It fits close to true to size, but some find it slightly short, so try a half size up if you're between sizes. This is the Wide version; it also comes in standard width. Coming from the Phantom 3? The 4 adds more cushioning, an all-new upper, midsole and outsole, and lighter, more responsive ZipFoam. Running through wet weather? Try the Phantom 4 WP.
