Type of review

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Shoes are at least one size smaller

Couldn't fit in these shoes even though I ordered my normal size. According to reviews, 91% is as expected. I can hardly believe it. If they fit it would probably be a great shoe for me. The search continues.

Pros
  • stability
Cons
  • Arch support may be lacking for people with a dropped arch or flat feet.

Very good running shoe for a slight overpronator.

This is my 5th shoe in the Mizuno Wave Inspire series and they have all been good. I have a significant hyperpronator (flat feet) but am light: male, around 5-8 and 130 pounds. We've tried motion control shoes in the past, but they work fine even over long distances, plus they're lighter and more comfortable. With any running shoe, fit is important. The Mizuno Wave Inspire fit my foot perfectly: they are relatively narrow and close to the heel, so the shoe doesn't slip off the foot. Suitable…

Pros
  • Very fast delivery very good shoes
Cons
  • May not have enough cushioning for those with intense workouts.

Changes for the better!

I've always loved ASICS for their support, but they seem to have changed things up with their recent additions (Gel-360 is no good!). The Mizuno were the perfect replacement, certainly rivaling, if not rivaling, the Nimbus and Kayano. I will not come back.

Pros
  • durable has held up so far, still walk with these shoes, durable.
Cons
  • The back of the shoe seems to break quickly.

Fit and Feeling win me over every time

I love the fit and feel of the Mizuno Wave Inspire 15. The replacement model, the 16, doesn't have a great fit or feel. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Size perfecto excellent calidad
Cons
  • This is a very stiff and uncomfortable shoe compared to the shoes from the previous Inspire line.

Excellent support. in my rating

I don't run much, but when I run I need good support. They appeared when I got rid of my severe back pain and wearing them helped my back. They are light but have good heel cushioning. The price is very good considering the reviews for this shoe. I would buy them again.

Pros
  • The product is Best Buy midday of my book. Great running shoe at a bargain price.
Cons
  • May not have enough padding for people with plantar fasciitis.

Buy this running shoe

Great running shoes! My husband has been using this type for several years. The costs were reasonable. These are the shoes you want to buy for long-distance running.

Pros
  • This is the second time I buy these shoes. love her
Cons
  • May be too heavy for some runners

very comfortable to walk

very convenient. I ordered a 9.5 wide EE, it fits me very well. I have been using this model for many years. I refill once a year.

Pros
  • Mizuno is well made, great support and highly recommended.
Cons
  • Limited or no arch support for runners with high arches.

good for traffic control

Bought for my son who needs traffic control. He found them quite stiff at first (that's how they have to be to work), but I haven't complained since. I've worn Mizunos for many years, but I'm not sure if they stand up to his "bullying". It has a very strong heel strike and they've survived the cross-country season, but the foam looks a bit compressed. Color and fit were as expected. No blisters

Pros
  • Filling broke on first try
Cons
  • May not be suitable for high intensity interval training or cross training.

The shoes fall apart in my review.

These are BAD quality shoes and the Mizuno guarantee is a joke. This shoe broke in the heel within the first 4 months of purchase. I have contacted Mizuno warranty service twice with no response. AVOID THIS ARTICLE AND MANUFACTURER.

Pros
  • I was able to buy wide shoes that fit me better.
Cons
  • Difficult to find in stores, limited quantities.

The width corresponds to the size, unlike New Balance.

Probably shoe size. I'm between wide and normal wide. In the new balance I have a D width but not this one. It was good, but it seemed to me that I was wearing out the boot too quickly.

Pros
  • They are so cute but the size is smaller than usual.
Cons
  • May not provide sufficient stability for cross-country or cross-country running.

The best shoes for flat feet or foot problems!

The title basically says it all. Extremely supportive shoe with plenty of cushioning. I'm on my feet all day at work and this is one of the few shoes that helps people with flat feet walk without pain. Great shoes!

Pros
  • These are great shoes. My husband loves to run and this is his show.
Cons
  • May not provide adequate ankle support for those with ankle instability.

4. Pair of Wave Inspires

I've been wearing the Wave Inspire for over 4 years now and this version fits just as well as the previous versions. Offers good support and comfort for my narrow 12.5 foot height. Will buy this shoe again after wear.

Pros
  • Use for walking training
Cons
  • May not be suitable for those with pre-existing foot or ankle injuries.

Good shoe for long distance runners with flat feet.

I have been using this make/model for several years as my Ascics GT2000 did not fit properly. I've run a few dozen marathons and ultramarathons in these shoes. Much luck!

Pros
  • Straight out of the box these are the most comfortable running shoes I've ever worn!
Cons
  • May not be suitable for runners with wide feet.

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The toe box is much smaller than the previous model (Inspire 13).

I bought the Wave Inspire 13 over two years ago based on recommendations from flat feet and a larger sock. I bought a pair and then a second pair (same model) because the first worked so well. They have become my favorite shoes. I just bought a newer model (Wave Inspire 15). The size is right, but there is no room for fingers. The shoe is noticeably sharper compared to the previous version and very uncomfortable. A real disappointment. Send back today.

Pros
  • Walking in these shoes is just more fun
Cons
  • May cause blisters or discomfort on long runs.

Comfortable but not durable

My first walk in the woods and the side fabric tore because of the sticker bush. That has never happened to me. Very disappointed with the quality.

Pros
  • Exactly what I thought they were so fitting and the color looks better in person
Cons
  • May cause blistering or chafing of heel or ankle.

Amazing brand - my new review

I have a low arch and flat shoes are uncomfortable. This is my third pair of Mizuno shoes and I love them. The quality of the stitching and how well your feet can breathe in them is amazing. As long as this company sticks to their guns the way they make them, I'll probably never find another brand. I'm vegan too and the fact that these shoes are abuse free is huge to me.

Pros
  • They fit perfectly and are the most comfortable running shoes I've ever had!
Cons
  • May not provide enough cushioning for active activities

Very good shoes - comfortable and durable!

I bought these Mizuno shoes and I love their stability and comfort! I walk about 6-7 miles a day and these shoes protect my feet very well. I am a happy customer and will buy again.

Pros
  • Great shoes, especially for people with overpronation.
Cons
  • You may lack the flexibility to run or make quick movements

Exactly what I wanted in my review

I've been running in these shoes for several years. They were good for my old legs that used to suffer from plantar fasciitis.

Pros
  • Very good shoes
Cons
  • May not provide adequate cushioning for those with joint pain.

My favorite sneakers

I'm slightly overpronated and this is my third Wave Inspire purchase. Compared to the Wave Inspire 12 and 14, this 15 has a slightly more attractive weave. Otherwise a solid shoe that I enjoy running (and walking in)

Pros
  • Great fit, great shipping and great price.
Cons
  • Size 2E may be too wide for some people which may cause slipping or chafing.

GAME CHANGES! - my new rating

I will give it to you directly. I bought these my weight loss goals for the new year. I weighed over 300 pounds, my heels hurt all the time. If they didn't hurt and I exercised, the pain would come back. I chose these shoes hoping to avoid some if not more foot pain. Of course it worked! When I first tried these shoes on I was skeptical. Not because they felt like it, but I just thought they were like regular shoes. I soon realized I was wrong. As a HEEL STOMPPER I feel the impact of my shoes…

Pros
  • Shoes that fit my feet are great. Thanks to Mizuno for making the shoe big enough and it still looks good!
Cons
  • May not be as durable as other brands on the market
