A Little Wave Can Go a Long Way

Mizuno has partnered up with Fleet Feet Sports again this year to find those people who inspire others through the power of running. Whether it’s with a simple wave or paving the way for others, Mizuno is here to help you through The Power of Running.

Let’s take a closer look at what this wave stuff is all about! 

wave plate

Mizuno shoes have a Wave Plate fused into the midsole to deliver a one-of-a-kind running experience with the perfect balance of cushioning, support, and responsiveness. Derived from the natural movement of a wave in nature, the Mizuno Wave Plate mimics the awesome power of a wave and optimizes it for the perfect run. The Wave Plate disperses the impact force evenly across a wider area for optimized heel-to-toe transition and a super smooth run. The Wave Plate also provides inherent support in the area around the arch to keep you centered in the shoe for perfect alignment through each stride.

There are 2 different types of Waves found in the Mizuno shoes in our stores:

feel

The Parallel Wave offers the perfect amount of cushion and energy dispersion, allowing the foot to move in its natural motion. Impact forces are spread out evenly throughout the midsole, while the foot is kept centered on the platform for the smoothest feel. The Wave Rider 19, Wave Sayonara 4, & Wave Enigma 6 all feature the Parallel Wave:

The Fan Wave combines the elements of the parallel wave with a more structured design to deliver support exactly where runners need it.
