INOV8

F-Lite

Women's

This shoe is almost there. Please, please Inov8, make more shoes 0 rise!! We don't need the 4mm rise, which is especially prominent in this shoe compared to some of their other 4mm shoes. Also... I can't stand the boomerang insole, it's doesn't hug my foot right, has lumps in the wrong places, and curls up on the edges so my foot is sitting in a dip. But I love the style of this one, love the colors, the stack height is good for more active pursuits and the fit is immaculate. Plus I love how flexible the whole shoe is despite having a greater stack. I typically wear an 8-8.5 in the US and the 9 fit me well in this model.

I ordered half a size up, and the fit is perfect. The wide toe box is the best feature of this shoe. It’s stable enough for lifting, flexible enough for calisthenics, and an all around comfortable cross trainer.

I use these sneakers exclusively for strength / HIIT training in a gym with a turf floor. They are super lightweight, responsive, and easy to sprint in. Great grip on the turf floor and good lateral stability. They do not have much heel or arch support which makes things like plate or sled pushes a bit less comfortable and supportive than I’d like. Also, these only came in a wide width (I’m a regular width) and that was unfortunate because the front half of my foot feels too loose in the shoe.

My 3rd pair of INOV8s & first one to not fit. I'm a true 6.5 and do not usually have any issues with shoes not fitting. These were too small & squished my toes. Sadly, I had to return them.

I ordered my usual size 10 - they are a half size too short in length, width was good.
