I have the Wave 21 which are pretty worn out now. I loved them because they were durable and comfy; I was hoping for the same with the Wave 25,but I'm disappointed. I should have known when anything says "eco" friendly, it's not up to par. The shoes felt cheap, especially the soles which look like they'll be worn out after one run. I'm definitely returning these for another brand, just not sure yet. Quality on the Wave 25 is not the same as Wave 21.

I have bought Wave Riders for years, always the same size. This one ran far too short, and the heel felt sloppy.

In the Mizuno I found that I need to go up 1/2 a size. I am a size 10 and order 10 1/2. I have been running in this brand for 20 years and hope that they never stop making the Wave Rider. Absolutely love this running shoe.

Great cushioning. Better than Brooks Ghost IMO. Forefoot space is ample for a D width, and especially considering the mid foot width is snug in the way it should be.

I bought these shoes about 6 months ago. Now i have just bought another of the same style. They are very comfortable and supportive. I have bouts of plantar faciaitis so I have tried several brands of shoes. I originally tried Mizuno when I saw a sale and they were just what I was needing for comfort.

I always have knee/hip pain when I run on crappy shoes, but when I get a new pair of these my pain is instantly gone. I will always run with these shoes.

Fits well, I generally wear a 10 in athletic shoes and these felt supportive yet roomy
Nice cushioning, feel comfortable for walking or jogging, especially good in the heel. Have held up well over last six months
Will buy again

The color was a bit loud, but I’ve gotten used to that. Continues tradition of the wave rider for comfort and fit.

My husband loves his Mizunos, it’s the only brand runs in. This latest Wave Rider is comfy and great for short and long runs.

The fit was great after returning the original one (size 10) for the latest one (size 10.5). Note: I have been wearing a size 10 for this very same shoe (Mizuno wave rider) for over 10 years.

The best running shoes not to many people know about. Very light weight and cushioned
I’ve had other Mizuno running shoes and they’re very good.
