Review on Mizuno Wave Inspire 16 Road Running Shoe for Men by Michael Gupta

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sneakers Graet best in Shoes

I've been at zero for many years, but before that I had very early versions of the Mizuno wave dating back almost 15 years. Now that I'm over 50 my heels and tendons aren't flexible enough to use 3mm zero drop shoes on pavement and concrete. Although I still love trail running shoes, the days of running in them are over. I took a chance and bought them direct from Amazon without testing them and they work great. There is only one slight movement which I was afraid would cause blisters or at least some skin issues and I was willing to either get it back or use bandages or body glides to avoid problems. Surprisingly, however, there were no problems at all for runs up to 8.5 miles. Excellent running shoes. However, I am concerned about a little chafing on runs longer than 8.5.

Pros
  • Men's
Cons
  • Piggy Bank Price
