TOPO Athletic Specter 2 Full test - The Special one

[@davidg9120]

Thanks so much for this review!

[@theswerunner]

@@davidg9120 no problem 😀 was fun to make 👍

[@liisaky]

I have been interested in Topo shoes because of the wide toe box and a smaller drop while still having cushioning, so this video was helpful. Tack!

[@theswerunner]

@@liisaky inga problem ☺️ kul sko att springa i, lite annorlunda om man jämför mot lite andra märken, lite mer naturlig känsla när man springer men ändå känslan av att dom har bra respons

[@kevrunsascott]

Living in Scotland I can only relate to not seeing the sun until next summer 😂

[@theswerunner]

Yes & probably the rain aswell 😅

[@kevrunsascott]

@@theswerunner oh absolutely! A tip for topo, they need to get their distribution sorted not really available at any of the big running stores - not even online!!

[@theswerunner]

@@kevrunsascott that’s some great feedback i can give back to them. I have littlebit of contact with the swedish office, but they can forward it to the other sites.

Hi. Is Specter 2 the same US size as the superblast and the saucony?

[@theswerunner]

Yes, I have the US sizes 8.5 in my Triumph 22, superblast 2 and specter 2 😊

[@blueandwhiteeighttwo]

@@theswerunner thanks. I am size 12 in superblast 1 so I will order same size for specter. For you size, the room left in superblast and specter is the same?

[@theswerunner]

@ I think that the Superblast 1 I have are littlebit longer, but specter is wider but enough room in the lenght

[@weuek]

The Cyclone 2 is simply disappointing. I weigh 65 kg and the midsole bottoms out under me, as the Pebax layer is too thin.

[@theswerunner]

I have not tried the cyclone 2 🧐 if that so it might do it for me aswell.

[@mrbean3352]

I'm the opposite, love the cyclone 2. For me they are light snappy and want you to go fast. I weigh around 14 pounds more then you.

[@theswerunner]

@ maybe I have to give it a try 😅

[@weuek]

@@mrbean3352 Light they are: 195 g in US size 9.5. It doesn't help much though, a 251 g Vanish Tempo (no plate) feels way faster!

[@giovanbattistafichera8439]

That's not a proper rotation... what you got there are three max cushioned shoes that can go the full range of paces for us mere mortals. I would get rid of the Triumph and get a lower stack, lighter shoe that's a bit more aggressive for fast-paced workouts like the Takumi Sen.

[@theswerunner]

@@giovanbattistafichera8439 i have not tried the takumi sen, but i will probably do it soon, but i hear you 😅 i know need a More lower stack fast, snappy shoe
