Review on Topo Athletic Phantom Women's Road Running Shoe - Optimized Women's Athletic Footwear for Road Running by Andrew Britton

These are very comfortable shoes. They have a spacious toe box, are very light and very flexible. However, I have rarely been so annoyed about shoes. The laces are too short. There is barely enough rope to tie the shoes together as they come straight out of the box. If you want to get the laces through the extra ankle hole, you'll definitely need to re-lace them. The holes that the laces go through are tiny slits, but the ends of the laces are round. These tiny slits make it difficult to adjust the large, rounded ends of the laces. You need to skip some holes to leave enough laces to tie the laces. Also, the tongue is not wide enough to fill the gap between the two edges of the boot, leaving a space for bare feet between the edge of the boot and the tongue. My leg is not fat; The tongue is too thin. Again, there's a personal preference to keep in mind: the shoes feel great on your feet, as if you've just put on your favorite slippers. That's because the insole is so soft. However, this softness (for me) leads to tired legs during the day. I took out the removable insoles and put in the Super Feet insoles and now I can wear the shoes all day without getting tired. The shoes are really very comfortable. But the laces are not long. And the language is not broad enough. But they are really comfortable!
