4F running shoes ranked — our top 3

Running on asphalt is one of the most popular forms of physical activity that attracts both beginners and experienced athletes. This is a good choice, especially in cities where access to natural running paths is limited. Although asphalt is a hard surface, proper preparation and right footwear can make running enjoyable and safe. Therefore, well-fitting shoes are the key to ensuring comfort, stability in running, pushing your limits and getting maximum enjoyment out of your workout.
Previously published blog articles cover the issue of how to dress for running and what shorts to choose, and today we present our ranked list of the top 3 shoe models that stand out with both quality and comfort.
-
The EVRD4Y running shoe is lightweight and breathable, has excellent cushioning, and an 8 mm drop that affects running technique.
-
Women’s and men’s X-FLOW shoes provide comfort, are suitable for beginners and include the OrthoLite® Hybrid Plus insole.
-
SIGNUM shoes with the Vibram sole blend technology and comfort with a sporty design.
Short summary:
1. EVRD4Y women's and men's running shoes
In our opinion, the EVRD4Y shoe is an excellent choice for female and male runners looking for a lightweight and well-ventilated footwear. Their breathable mesh upper with reinforced details made of TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) provides adequate ventilation as well as durability and support for the foot with every step.
The biggest advantage of these shoes is their sole. Made from the Liquid Foam SuperCritical foam that provides superior cushioning that makes the shoe lighter yet incredibly comfortable. In addition, the foam is highly responsive, meaning that it quickly returns to its original shape after pressure, providing better energy return as you move. There is a nylon plate in the midsole that allows for a smooth and dynamic transition from strike to propulsion, and the EVA insole has been specially contoured to further improve comfort on long runs.
Shoe drop, also known as shoe offset, matters too. It’s the difference in height between the heel and the front. It’s measured in millimetres (mm). The drop affects the running technique and may determine which muscle groups and joints are stressed more during the workout. For example, if the drop measures 8 mm, as in the EVRD4Y shoe, this means that the heel is 8 mm higher than the front part of the shoe.
Pros:
-
Liquid Foam SuperCritical sole: excellent cushioning, does not put extra weight on shoe structure, making it extremely lightweight and minimising foot fatigue during long runs.
-
Breathability: high-quality mesh provides excellent ventilation, which is key during intense workouts.
-
Nylon plate: enables a smooth and dynamic transition from strike to propulsion.
-
Drop: 8 mm.

2. Women's and men's X-FLOW shoes with the OrthoLite® Hybrid Plus insole
X-FLOW is a running shoe designed for beginners and intermediate runners. We believe they will appeal to those who appreciate comfort and advanced technology.
The airy upper is made of soft, technical Engineered Mesh that fits the foot perfectly and provides adequate ventilation. In addition, it has been enhanced with reinforced elements made of TPU to stabilise the foot. The thin mesh-covered tongue fits snugly to the instep and protects against abrasions. The padded interior and soft collar, on the other hand, increase comfort while running.
To further enhance the quality of your workouts, the shoes have a high midsole and the OrthoLite® Hybrid Plus foam insole, which is made from at least 50% recycled materials. Meanwhile, the rubber outsole combines flat and wide elements to create the perfect combination of grip and resistance. Distinctive lines and zonal dents on the sole, leading from the toes to the heel, support the smooth rolling of the foot and cushioning on various surfaces.
Pros:
-
OrthoLite® Hybrid Plus insole: provides exceptional comfort, superior fit and excellent breathability.
-
Cushioning: thanks to the special structure of the sole, the shoe effectively absorbs shocks, protecting joints and muscles.
-
Lightweight: despite the advanced technology, the shoes are lightweight, allowing for longer and more comfortable runs.
-
Drop: 10 mm.

3. SIGNUM shoes with the Vibram sole for men and women
The SIGNUM shoe is a running model with a drop of 10 mm that combines advanced technology with wearing comfort. It will work perfectly while running on asphalt or other hard surfaces.
The asymmetrical cut of the shoe ensures the perfect fit to the foot, while the Vibram sole with rubber tread helps keep the right dynamic during short to middle distance runs. The ultra-lightweight, single-layer upper is made of breathable mesh inspired by the shape of a laurel wreath - a symbol of victory.
The SIGNUM shoe features a low-profile upper, shaped insole and extra soft padding under the insole. Combined, these elements elevate wearing comfort. The midsole features a TPU plate that stabilises the midfoot. The soft collar and thin tongue increase comfort and prevent chafing. Elastic laces help improve the fit of the shoes, while a reflective detail on the heel enhances conspicuity after dark.
Pros:
-
Vibram sole: guarantees excellent grip and durability on short to middle distances.
-
Stabilisation: a TPU plate in the midsole stabilises the midfoot for better foot support.
-
Stylish design: the laurel wreath-inspired aesthetic makes the shoe look great both on and off the running trail.
-
Drop: 10 mm.
