Mizuno Wave technology is unique in that it combines cushioning and stability perfectly. The wave plate provides excellent cushioning by dispersing the force of impact across a larger surface area minimising the risk of shock related injury.

Smooth Ride Engineering provides the ultimate in comfort, feel and performance. Designed by Mizuno’s Sozo Studio, Smooth Ride Engineering is the next generation in performance footwear design. Designed to minimise the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot through the phases of the running cycle by reducing shock and increasing flexibility. This allows for a supremely comfortable run through a smoother ride.

Now more stable due to the updated midsole outsole but still retaining a dynamic ride

• The AP Midsole is both lightweight and responsive with a more resilient base for maximum response and performance on every foot strike.

• VS-1 technology provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning by absorbing shock and resisting compression-set, extending the cushioning life of the shoe.

• Intercool technology relieves heat and humidity build up by incorporating a full-length ventilation system in the sole of the shoe allowing for the heat to escape through a system of ventilation channels keeping you cool and dry.

• AIRmesh allows the shoe to maintain a high standard of breathability providing a cool, dry feel.

• X-10 provides durability and traction utilising the most durable carbon rubber from Mizuno that allows for longer wear in high impact areas and provides more traction at heel strike.

• Outsole features a rubber forefoot plate that can be used on the track or the trail.
