Review on Mizuno WaveKnit Running Shoes for Men - Campanula Vapor Color by Steven Wood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good compromise between strong cushioning and 4 mm zero drop.

The cushioning is perfect. Not an overly large cushion, but still significantly better in shock absorption than a thin zero drop. I run zero drops for a long time and as I get older my heel bones take longer and longer to heal from pain. Pillows from the likes of Brooks weren't good. It was too much. These Mizuno waves are excellent and cushion well without being over the top. Just enough flare at the base to minimize the risk of twisting, without being so excessive that I trip over the flared parts when my body mechanics falter on a long run.

Pros
  • Great price for reliable shoes. true size. Fits like my last four pairs.
Cons
  • Inconsistent quality control
