Terraventure 5 GTX

TrailAnnouncement date 2026-10-22US

Terraventure 5 GTX is a low-cushion waterproof shoe for technical trail running and hiking. GORE-TEX Invisible Fit protects against wet conditions, while Vibram Megagrip supplies traction on slippery terrain. A compact ZipFoam platform balances ground feel with an ESS forefoot rock plate for protection. The closed-cell FKT insole resists water absorption, and the shoe accepts Topo's universal gaiter system.

Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
Direct 304 g men's M9 specification on Topo Japan's exact #a-020131 GTX page replaces the former approximately 303 g ounce conversion. Women's W7 254 g is separate; the US 10.7 oz value is not converted.
Plate note
The exact JP GTX product page describes its forefoot ESS rock plate as flexible foam. The exact US GTX page corroborates the named ESS rock-protection structure. Record the non-carbon foam protection plate explicitly; false does not mean that the shoe has no plate. The ESS chemical acronym is not expanded.
