I love my new shoes! Always wear Mizunos and these are by far my favorite. Not too bulky and I love the color.

They have really nice cushion, great breathability, and they're fairly stable. I bought the bright green ones, I get compliments on what a good looking shoe it is. I'm not a runner but when I take Tabata, HIIT, or step classes I get a lot Spring in my step. I don't anticipate using any other shoe brand.

I have been wearing the Wave Riders for many years. I have a narrow heel and and a medium toe box. My first pair was purchased and expertly fitted at a running store. These shoes are so reliable as to fit and quality that I can now purchase them online. They are comfortable right out of the box and need no break in. I am not a runner, I use them for walking the streets of NYC.

I have worn the wave rider series for the last 8 years and have never been disappointed! I have narrow feet and these shoes fit great. I wore them for a 15 miler the first time out of the box and they didn't need any breaking in! Highly recommend for long distance runners.

I've worn wave riders for a while and like others have noted, I had to go up a half size from my normal on these. Once I did that they fit perfectly.

As a physical therapist I've been searching for some supportive neutral running shoes. I've finally found them. These are very comfortable and I love them so far.

Love everything but color I wear 11.5 wide and have very little arch so comfort is a must in my shoes and this one is awesome!! Wish it wasn’t a blah gray but May keep anyway just because it’s oh so comfy!!!!

I run marathons and have sworn by the saucony ride for years until they changed the shoe. The Mizuno Wave Rider feels like my old sauconys. Firm enough to feel the road just a little but has enough cushion to not hit too hard on the footfall. I'll be running in Mizunos from now on.

I have been wearing the Wave Riders for years and they do not disappoint. I love that I can put them on and start running without a break- in period.

This was my first pair of Mizuno running shoes. I am pleasantly surprised. They were comfortable out of the box and after 75 miles, they still feel great. Super soft padding around the heel cup and the tongue. I love the silky mesh material that forms the upper- it allows your toes and foot to wiggle and flex with ease. Nothing hurts when I wear them and running feels effortless. They performed well on dirt roads and paved. I am now wearing them to train for a marathon and they excel on long runs, providing the bounce and softness I need.

I was a little nervous to try the Waverunners because I have wide feet but these fit great and have such a nice cushion. I feel like I can run with them on all different types of terrain without worrying about rolling my ankle or injuring myself. The look is very clean and they are so comfortable!

I am in love with my new Wave Riders! I have been running in Wave Riders for years, but this model feels so much lighter than the older models that I used to run in. They are light and fit my foot like a glove making my runs feel so comfortable, easy, and they keep my feet happy on my longer runs.

Its amazing that a shoe this soft can still give me the support I love! I always wear Wave Riders for their snappy road response and these new 23's still have that, plus it feels like you're running on clouds! They are great for this hot summer too, the mesh is so breathable. I just keep reaching for them every morning!
