Best for
Fli-Lyte 6 is the Topo Athletic shoe for people who run, lift and sweat in the same day. A moderately cushioned ZipFoam midsole sits on a low 23 mm stack with a 3 mm drop, light enough for up-tempo running and stable enough for the gym.
It suits you if one pair has to cover easy runs, the occasional tempo session and a strength workout afterwards. At 221 g it is no burden on the road, and it keeps its footing among the weights.
It is not a long-run shoe. A moderately cushioned, low stack gives limited protection once the mileage climbs, and it is not built for racing. Pick a plusher pair for the big weeks.
