Topo Athletic is integrating the BIO Footwear  waterproof/breathable laminates of eVent Fabrics in two of its latest products – the Terraventure 4 WP trail shoe and the Trailventure 2 WP hiking boot.

Designed to withstand any weather conditions, BIO Footwear laminates are based on renewable plant-based materials and provide good abrasion resistance while keeping the feet dry, comfortable and blister free.

The upper of the Terraventure 4 WP features a BIO Footwear bootie construction to lock water out, while a tightly woven mesh provides a secure and durable fit. The 25 x 22 mm section combines moderate cushioning with a forefoot rock plate. A Vibram Megagrip outsole offers superior traction and slip resistance on all terrain, especially in wet conditions.

The Trailventure 2 WP’s mesh upper also features a full BIO Footwear waterproof bootie construction, with a ZipFoam midsole and external TPU heel counter and again, a Vibram Megagrip outsole.

“We are delighted to be partnering with Topo Athletic, a brand that embraces outdoor activity and sustainably-minded products,” said Chad Kelly, president of eVent Fabrics. “Our BIO Footwear offering helps brands like Topo maintain high levels of performance while also lowering their environmental impact. We’re pleased to see this relationship grow.”
