Review on Topo Athletic FLI Lyte Comfortable Cushioned Men's Shoes by Matthew Flores

Revainrating 5 out of 5

OMG - finally a shoe that fits

I will buy more Topo Athletic shoes in the future. I've finally found a shoe that isn't too tight in the forefoot and not too loose in the heel. Arch support is almost perfect, just a little more in one foot and perfect in the other (who knew humans aren't perfectly symmetrical). It's also surprisingly resilient. Coming from over 5 years of Zero Drop so I'm pretty sure it's just my imagination but I think the 3mm offset adds a bit of bounce. I'll know in a month or two if my knees can take the shift or not. However, the first impression is that I found the shoe to be Goldilocks. I'm going to take some trail runners with me next spring and see how they do.

Pros
  • GREAT Cushioning & Stability: The Fli-Lyte 4 running shoe features a patented midsole compound that is more resilient than EVA and offers more bounce over the life of the shoe.
Cons
  • There are problems
