I am very happy with the shoe. There is a slight lift to my heel when running, hopefully it will break in. I was not at all happy with the quality of the shoe laces. They were standard laces and are too short for tying. My last year's pair had wonderful quality laces. Maybe the reason for the lower price this year?

I ordered two pair I kept one pair the darker color 1/2 size smaller than this pair. There was a difference in the toe width in the 9 & 91/2. So the 9 was a better fit for me. I returned the pair pictured above. 91/2 is usually my size.

I found this brand, in general, to be tighter in the toe box than Brooks. Otherwise great fit.

I am usually a size 8 but am always a 8.5 in Mizuno. When the shoe arrived it was (1) the wrong color and (2) too small, so I would recommend sizing up. With that being said once I got the right size and color it is a very cute and comfortable shoe with lots of support.

These were a nice pair of sneakers. They were a touch narrow, but not by much. They had moderate support and good cushioning.

I haven't gotten to run in these a lot yet, but I am a physical therapist and am standing and moving in them ~10 hr days. I have a pretty neutral foot. They are not necessarily like walking on clouds but are generally comfortable.

These were pretty comfortable but couldn't get over the crushed material on the top of the sneaker. Arch support could be better but overall, a comfortable shoe.

I have worn Mizuno Wave Horizon for a long time. The Wave Horizon 4 is not the same fit and lacks the arch support that the previous Wave Horizons had. I am sending them back because I want the arch support. I called Mizuno and they confirmed that the technology design of the Wave Horizon 4 is different....a sad change for me because I loved these shoes.

This seemed like a decent stability shoe if a little dated-looking. However, the arch fell in the wrong spot for my foot, so had to return.

These shoes were described to target hyperpronation, however, I found it to have less arch support than the other Mizuno shoes I've had. Will be returning.

Bought these in my usual size an 8M, and couldn’t even get them on my feet. Exchanged them for an 8.5 and still way too small. They were narrow and there’s no wide size available, so I returned them.. They were very nice looking and a great color but no way could I wear them.

I love the fit of these shoes but this is the second pair I have had that has worn out in a short period of time.
Last the shoes had a hole in 3 months...this time there is a hole in less than a month.
At $119 the shoes should last more than a month.

The shoe is more comfortable than the WH9 but they removed the leather from the side and toes. So the toes are black after 2-3wears. The fabric on the side also ripped on day 2.

I have been wearing Wave Horizon shoes for the past several years. I run @ 4 miles a day and the shoes typically last 6 months. The Wave Horizon 4 did not even hold up for 3 months. They are far less stable and substantial than the previous versions. The rubber at the toe peeled off. I'm so disappointed with the change in the model. I had really liked this shoe and now I'll have to search for a different brand.

Was hoping this would be a lateral move from my waveknit 3 but my knees have been killing me since I got these. Really disappointed

I bought this to run in orange theory classes. The shoes were heavy and I felt more pain in my heel. No weight distribution at all!

I received the wrong color. I wanted to exchange them but customer service stated that I would have to return my order and then order them again (and hope I got the color I ordered). I ended up finding the shoes locally from another store and bought them there instead.
