IT ALL STARTED WITH A RUNNER: TONY POST

Founder of Topo Athletic and former CEO of Vibram FiveFingers, Tony discovered his passion for running in the 70s during his university years. After decades learning from mentors who prioritized "the customer experience above all else," he channeled that philosophy into Topo: rejecting footwear that restricted natural movement. Today, his legacy is a brand that merges minimalism, technical comfort, and anatomical freedom, empowering athletes to achieve "more comfort, more miles, more accomplishments."

    2013: Brand launch

    Topo Athletic was born with a mission: to combine the benefits of minimalist running with the comfort of traditional footwear. This evolved into the Topo Difference: three key design elements present in all our models.

Health Benefits for Your Feet


Topo brand footwear respects your biomechanics by promoting free toe movement, reduces impact on joints, and strengthens muscles in a balanced way. This natural alignment improves your body posture and prevents common injuries, protecting the overall health of your feet with every step.

Topo Athletic revolutionizes foot health through an innovative design that respects your foot's anatomy: a wide toe box for toes to splay freely, low drops (0-5mm) that balance the body, and flexible soles that promote a natural and efficient stride.

This structure not only reduces joint impact but also actively strengthens the intrinsic foot muscles, helping to prevent common pathologies such as plantar fasciitis, bunions, or tendinitis. At El Mejor Calcetín, we selected this footwear because we firmly believe in shoes that protect natural functionality and guarantee maximum comfort with every stride you take.
