Inov8 F- Lite 195 V2 Women's Training Shoes
An update to the iconic F-Lite 195, the V2 features a new internally structured one piece upper allowing the shoe to adapt and breath with increased durability. This men's training shoe does it all, perfect for indoor or outdoor workouts, functional fitness, weightlifting and running.
Inov8 Shoe Fit Scale
For technical footwear, a good fit is essential to enhance your performance. Inov8's new Shoe Fit Scale makes it easier to find the perfect fitting shoe. All Inov8 shoes are designed with Met-Cradle technology to lock down the mid-foot for a stable hold, where they differ is in the toe box. The shoes are now graded from 1 to 5, Grade 1 representing their closest, most precise fit and Grade 5 representing the widest fitting toe box.
The lower the number on the scale, the narrower the fit, which ensures minimal internal movement of the foot when running fast on technical terrain. Shoes with the higher numbers on the scale will suit athletes with a wider foot and those wanting that extra comfort in the toe box. This wider toe box allows the toes to splay for increased stability when lifting heavy weights. It's also perfect for longer runs and races when toes begin to swell.
Inov8 have graded the F- Lite 195 V2 Training Shoes as Grade 2.
Synthetic Mesh Upper
The Inov8 F-Lite 195 V2 is a go to shoe when tackling the cross training exercises. The construction on which it was created is a new internally structured one piece upper allowing the shoe to adapt to the changes within it. A full bodied mesh provides key breathability to the interior keeping the foot cool and refreshed through performance.
Additionally, supporting the midfoot and securing lockdown the F-lite 195 V2 utilises Met Cradle design. This is where the upper webbing support on the shoe is anatomically positioned to cradle the midsection extending to the eyelets to provide a secure hold to the feet. Giving you greater stability and control whilst powering through your active training regime. Added strength materialises in a rugged upper format, a durable toe bumper has been reconstructed for ultimate protection against burpee fatigue.
Compressed EVA Midsole
Fighting your way through your workout an EVA midsole compound merged to the upper provides full underfoot cushioning. Through this clever installation, pressure is reduced on the underfoot and arch, negating poor balance and supporting the foot through transition.
At the rear and embedded into the midsole, a Powerheel insert is 40% denser than the forefoot of the shoe and with a 4mm heel-toe differential, the Powerheel provides maximum power and mechanical advantage when lifting weights. While the denser Powerheel delivers maximum stability, the forefoot provides more cushion for shock absorption and protection while doing box jumps or running.
Rope-tec Outsole
Utilised into the outsole is Inov-8's Sticky rubber compound has been specially developed using climbing rubber technology. The 360-degree Rope-tec system extended onto the shoes upper which deliver traction and durability on rope climbs and descents optimises grip in wet conditions, providing superior floor fighting traction.
Unifying the outsole, Meta-Flex forefoot flex grooves and Fascia Band tech can be found along the outsole lending the forefoot greater freedom of movement. This allows the shoe to become more receptive and have a greater propulsion underfoot, this is granted to the wearer.
