How it ranks
The Topo Athletic Fli-Lyte 4 sits about average for daily trainers in our data. Value and comfort are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 2 runner reviews and 4 other rated shoes in the Fli-Lyte product line. Another 10 reviews would set the confidence on this shoe's own reviews.

Overall
I have wide feet, and the sock liner was causing a tight hot spot on the sides of my feet. After removing a small section in the midsection of the liner, it fits perfectly now. The 3 mm drop is very good--I just wish the stack height was less.
