Fit & Feel
The MTN Racer 4 maintains Topo's signature roomy toe box while using a more performance-focused upper to securely hold the midfoot and heel on technical terrain. The result is plenty of room for natural toe splay without sacrificing lockdown when climbing, descending, or cornering.
Ride
Responsive, protective, and trail-ready. ZipFoam™ provides enough cushioning for long distances while maintaining the responsiveness and control needed for technical terrain. The 5 mm drop and secure platform help create a natural, confident ride over changing surfaces.

Shoe Tech
UPPER


The performance-focused upper is designed to securely hold the midfoot and heel while preserving Topo's signature roomy toe box. An improved hook-and-loop gaiter attachment system provides compatibility with Topo's Switchback Gaiter for added protection from trail debris.

MIDSOLE


Topo's ZipFoam™ cushioning provides a soft step-in feel with responsive rebound and greater resilience than traditional EVA. The 33 mm heel and 28 mm forefoot stack provide substantial protection without eliminating the responsive feel needed for technical trail running.

OUTSOLE


A Vibram® Megagrip outsole delivers dependable traction, grip, and durability across technical terrain, including wet surfaces. It provides the confidence needed for rocky climbs, loose descents, and changing trail conditions.

RESPONSIVE PERFORMANCE FOR TECHNICAL TRAILS

RESPONSIVE ZIPFOAM™

High-cushion ZipFoam™ provides protection and responsive rebound for long-distance trail running.

VIBRAM® MEGAGRIP

Premium outsole rubber provides exceptional grip and dependable traction on technical and wet terrain.

FKT INSOLE

Closed-cell beaded foam resists water absorption, allowing the shoe to drain quickly while providing additional rebound.

SECURE TRAIL FIT

A performance-focused upper locks down the midfoot and heel while maintaining Topo's roomy toe box.

GAITER COMPATIBLE

An improved attachment system works with Topo's Switchback Gaiter to help keep dirt, rocks, and trail debris out.
