Review on Mizuno 411304 9097 15 1100 Wave Horizon 5 by Travis Carter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

good fit but no arch support, comfortable after replacing factory insoles, now a perfect shoe

I bought these for my husband who is not a runner but needed a regular athletic shoe that his regular running shoes would not fit. They fit him perfectly and he loves them but the first day he put them on his knees were killing him by the end of the day. These shoes had no arch support at all. So I ordered him a pair of Sole Signature DK Response insoles for them and now they are perfect. He can wear them all day for any activity without pain and I see that on regular days he often actually chooses them instead of the Keen sneakers he used to wear as casual shoes. Recently a person who sold athletic shoes told me that I had complained that these Mizuno shoes had no arch support, that the manufacturers made their shoes specifically and expected you to put your own insole. Not sure if this is true or not. Anyway, husband loves her now.

Pros
  • The Mizuno Wave Horizon 5 Men's Running Shoe offers unmatched support for overpronators.
Cons
  • Shoes can rub on the ankle, causing blisters and discomfort.
