Versatility without compromise. An 8mm drop offers cushioning for the run and box jumps, while the power heel delivers a stable platform that helps when performing the deepest of squats. The addition of an upper strap ensures the foot remains firmly locked in place. This training shoe proves that it is possible to have the best of both worlds – speed and lifting – in one package.

Great shoe, Inov-8s sizing is a little large though
Great shoe. Solid build and good grip on sweaty floors. The heel is firm enough that I'm comfortable lifting, but still don't feel like I'm slamming my feet into the floor during HIIT or if I'm running.4 out of 5 instead of the full 5 because their sizing is a little large. I have a pair of Inov-8 trail running shoes (X-Talon 212s) which are also a bit large for my feet. With most other shoes I'm a size 9, with Inov-8s I'm more like and 8.5. Only other draw back (for me) is the large toe area. This is probably also due to the slightly large size for me, and I generally wear narrower fit shoes. Otherwise, they're great. Firm, right fit, and don't feel like they're going to slip or come loose.

Inov-8 as good as usual, pity about the velcro
I had my first set of 235 F-lites for nearly 4 years before the heel started giving me griefThese are a bit more modern in design but obviously stick to the same build principlesGreat for everyday including medium to heavy lifting, max lifts I use lifting shoesAs with other reviews, the velcro is actually a pain in the a***e but does add a little extra support

Loving it for circuits classes
Do what they were designed to do. Gives you firm footing on gym floors. Stablises the foot. Makes a huge difference when doing a lot of jumping and left-right movements like in a circuits class. Wouldnt use for running as their is a lot of resistance coming from the soles which felt like you had to use more energy to push off every step. I am size 7.5 UK normally and size 7.5UK fits well and feels roomy at the toes.

iMovie -8 cross trainers
I have never bought 50 trainers before, gym training is for these F lite 275. They are easy to walk in, in the gym they are firm and have little bounce. Ok ,on the leg press they are awesome, like seriously firm. Best money on gym ever. I will see how they hold up after six days in the gym. Need big legs.
