We do have them on display in our store together because they are under the same low profile running category. The Inov-8 company doesn’t require us to carry their shoes unless we carry Vibram Fivefingers. We have had a hard time keeping up with the high demand on Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852091510951433710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-66813305676400688992010-10-28T16:09:12.863-06:002010-10-28T16:09:12.863-06:00AinP, good point.

That's the Munson last that Russell Moccasin uses, and it's the sort of solution I was hoping we'd see from Inov-8.Tucker Goodrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455436946187786398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-64465953988707971702010-10-28T16:06:32.870-06:002010-10-28T16:06:32.870-06:00Graham, I posted my response in a new post.Graham, I posted my response in a <a href="http://yelling-stop.blogspot.com/2010/10/follow-up-to-inov-8-f-lite-195-review.html" rel="nofollow">new post</a>.Tucker Goodrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455436946187786398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-4789477946661624042010-10-28T16:03:14.221-06:002010-10-28T16:03:14.221-06:00@Graham I understand Inov-8s reasoning for the nar...@Graham I understand Inov-8s reasoning for the narrow last. I think some new/innovative thinking needs to be done in this area. Manufacturers should be looking for ways to secure the shoe to the foot without having to resort to constricting the toes. Obviously one way is with separate toes, like how Vibram is doing it. I am sure there are other ways we haven't thought of yet.<br /><br />The ADVENTUREinPROGRESShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12969421780777507389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-66353722466796132302010-10-28T15:04:48.330-06:002010-10-28T15:04:48.330-06:00The 195 is a performance based minimal trail shoe....The 195 is a performance based minimal trail shoe. Having a snug fitting last means the wearer can contour without the shoe moving on the foot. The heel to toe differential is actually 3mm but this forms part of inov-8's transitioning from conventional heel to barefoot story which isn't offered by any other brand. The 3mm lift relates to a 1 arrow midsole (6mm for the 2 arrow, 9mm for Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06459436187269832677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-29929045969107019672010-10-24T18:22:33.062-06:002010-10-24T18:22:33.062-06:00Well, given that I use my Bikilas mostly for trail...Well, given that I use my Bikilas mostly for trail running (they're too cushioned for the road, IMHO), the Road-X might work well for me.<br /><br />But it would be nice if they would just get it right...Tucker Goodrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455436946187786398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-40419577332363919822010-10-23T19:24:43.987-06:002010-10-23T19:24:43.987-06:00I have a pair of these, and your review pretty muc...I have a pair of these, and your review pretty much sums up my sentiments as well. I suspect that the BareGrip (in fact I think it is more than a suspicion) has the same narrow performance last.<br /><br />I emailed Inov-8 about this, asking them when they were going to release a trail shoe with the anatomical last. The new Road-X will have it, but no trail shoes as of yet. What a shame.ADVENTUREinPROGRESShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12969421780777507389noreply@blogger.com
