Customer Reviews inov-8 F-Lite 260 Knit

I loved the style of the shoe for a cross trainer. I read the reviews that said that the shoe tends to run narrow and the reviews of this current model that said the toebox was wider. I decided to order the shoes in my normal running shoe size ( I wear a Brooks eight wide). Despite the wider toebox the shoes were still too narrow so I returned them and ordered an 8 1/2 and they fit great! If your feet are wide, order a 1/2 size up!

Great shoe for boxing, CrossFit etc. Love the width in the toe for more room. Great style. I can for my orthotics in the shoe for maximum support. No complaints. Hope they make more colors so I can buy more.

Wanted to try this brand & got these in sale. They’re fine? Fit tts. Changed out insoles for more support & oddly ended up with more room in the shoe. The plastic purple back doesn’t thrill me but it’s ok. Overall like the shoe for gym, not so much for walking

TTS. I like the style for the most part. Swapped out the I sole for better arch support & actually gave me more room in the shoe (I have a “higher volume” foot). Color is meh, but got what was my size - the black with purple. Feels like a good all around gym shoe

They look sturdy and smart; I like the colors, but my toes (whether exercising or not) need to be able to wiggle and move, which this shoe did not allow. The sole has too much taper to the toe for my comfort, so will return them. Sorry, Inov8.

This is so close to being a great shoe for me. It feels like it'd be really supportive for lifting and cross training workouts. The toe box could definitely be roomier, but for me the big issue was size. I usually wear a 10.5 in this sort of shoe. I ordered an 11 per the other reviews, and it was too small. 11 is the highest size available otherwise I'd try an 11.5 and give this shoe a go. I think it seems great for workouts.

Beautiful shoe. Green is more vivid than the photo. The sizing on these was off for me, one full size. I returned these.

It is not 5 stars mostly bc they run half a size too small compared to other cross trainers.

Love the style. My daughter is happy with the 10.5 I ordered; it was too short for me. The 11 was also too short so I returned them.

These shoes are a hot mess in terms of sizing. I started by ordering my true size (8.5) and they were too small. A bunch of other reviews said to go 1-2 sizes up, so I ordered a 9 and a 9.5. The 9 felt the exact same as the 8.5, just a bit too small with all my toes touching the front of the shoe. Somehow the 9.5 was massive though! They were almost a whole size too big and felt like clown shoes. None of them fit normally which is crazy for three sizes. I did have to mix colorways because of what was in stock, but the sizing of these shoes is just a joke. I am returning them all and am disappointed because they honestly seem like nice shoes for the gym.

I am very disappointed. These shoes are described as being "grippy", when in real use they are dangerously slippery on almost any wet surface, even asphalt!! Unfortunately, I didn't find out their dangerous side until I'd worn them and discarded the box or I would send them back. I'm probably going to donate them to Goodwill-goodbye $140!

I was super disappointed in these shoes. I had never tried Inov8 before and I probably never will again. The first thing I noticed when I opened the box was that the the little piece of fabric that hold your shoe laces down at the top of the tongue wasn't attached on one of the shoes. Then when I went ahead and tried them on, they weren't comfortable at all. Zero arch support and no cushion at all in the ball of your foot. No thanks!

Cute shoes but not comfortable at all.

Runs small. Not enough support.
