Customer Reviews Mizuno Wave Sky 4 WAVEKNIT™

I was turned onto the Wave Sky 3 versions ago when , in my opinion, the Asics Nimbus lost their cushioning. If you don't like cushioning, then this shoe is not for you. I personally like the "walking in the clouds" feel when I'm walking but I know not every person does. I like how the Waveknit feels. I am a wide and felt like I had plenty of room. I hope they never change this shoe!

This Wave Sky definitely runs 1/2 size short. I always get a 7.5 in running shoes, but I ordered a size 8, which felt like my normal size. I returned them because of the weird fit. Maybe it's my foot shape, but as great as the features are, the feel just weird. I have a narrow heel but a wide forefoot. They felt strange all over. Definitely soft step, though.

I love Mizuno shoes -- but these just didn't fit. The right shoe, particularly, felt half a size too small. Great looking shoe, but had to return.

This shoe is the first neutral shoe I have been able to wear with my foot challenges. I am writing this with the hope it may help someone. I have flat, flexible feet , bunions and neuromas. I got cold laser therapy for the neuromas which helped alot. I need a stable shoe but my feet but my body does not like orthotics. I was hesitant about the 10mm drop as I usually don't like more than an 8mm drop but this shoe feels like an 8mm drop to me. It cradles your foot and provides heel support and just the right amount of cushioning. I ended up using a prokinetic insole, which provides just the right amount of lift for my arch. I am walking relatively pain free for the first time in 12 years, since a botched bunionectomy. A certified pedorthist recommended this shoe for me. I have thin, low volume feet and this shoe seems to be plenty wide. With the insoles in, it's fine. The only thing I would change is I'd like a padded tongue, It seems like a very well made shoe, too, compared to other companies.

I tried these sneakers in 3 different sizes and the fit was strange. They are too curved on the big toe like dress shoes. There also seems to be an arch on the outer side which feels very odd. They look nice and are moderately cushy, just can't keep them because the fit is so off.

Usually wear an 8 in running shoes, bought 1/2 size up per other reviews, perfect fit- excellent price and style-bought a 2nd pair.

I have bought 8+ pairs of Wave Sky which are the only sneakers I have found that are comfortable for me in the last few year. Unfortunately, either the color or the batch ran small so have to return.

Great comfortable and jogging

The fit and size is truly like you are walking over clouds! I am in loved, and want them in more colors and styles.
