Fits very well! I have relatively flat feet. The sole is perfect. The kind of cushioning my feet need.

10 1/2 regular is exactly my size with a little breaking in...A very well constructed show. I couldn't wait to wear them and they feel great, and it's a perfect fit. I really like the way mizuno shows look as well. First time using Zappos. What a pleasant experience.

I'm on about my fifth pair of these. They are extremely comfortable compared to other shoes I've tried including Hoka, Nike, New Balance, etc. I love the way they fit, and I think they are awesome shoes. As a 50yr old guy, I walk ~3 miles/day about 5 days a week on hard surfaces, so I go through them about every 6-9 months. It seems they should last longer, but I'm not sure how that would compare to other shoes. Lastly, Mizuno needs to step up their branding. It took me four pairs just to remember the brand and style. They don't say Mizuno hardly anywhere, and certainly not in place you could easily read. So most people think I'm wearing Brooks shoes since the logo is similar. Nonetheless, performance trumps branding everyday, and I will keep buying them.

These shoes are great for the bigger runners and I’ve been running in the Inspire shoe for about a decade, generally alternating between soft gravel trails and street at around a 50/50 split. I typically get about 300-350 miles out of a pair and in the past a pair of retired shoes were still whole when I rotated them out, but since version 16, the shoes have tended to be more broken down and tend to start showing problems earlier. The picture below is a good example of what has happened to the last four pairs of shoes. I still recommend them, but with the caution that they are not as bulletproof as they used to be.

My son did not love these, too much arch support in the middle felt intrusive. Also narrower than previous versions.

I have pretty narrow feet, and these felt tight in the heel. I have bunions and plantar fasciitis, and both were irritated by wearing these around the house. My old mizuno waves were so cushy in the heel, these were very firm. I’m disappointed, because I love this color.

Bought these for my 13 yr old son to wear in gym class. With little wear, two pieces of the sole came off. Paid way too much for such poor quality.

The most uncomfortable sneaker I've ever worn. I feel like I'm walking with bricks.
