Customer Reviews Mizuno Wave Rider 27

The shoe has a large box to accommodate my orthotics

very lightweight but i am concerned about the support and durability of the shoe

I bought this shoe through the Mizuno USA website. I was excited to buy it but after wearing it for a little bit, I didn't feel right. Turns out that Japanese and American sizes might say the same sizes, but they're not. Something is a little different between the two countries. The American size 10 was smaller in length to the Japanese size 10. So, I contacted Mizuno USA and was told what to do to receive a refund. The process to return was straight forward. I'll try to buy another pair of Mizuno Waverider soon enough.

Have been a 'wave' runner for 10+ years and always enjoyed the shoe line. The new 28s seem to have made some serious changes in light weight and a spring-ear sole. The downsides are the toe guard area kinda falls onto your toes while running, the shoe materials are cheap feeling and my soles made it through one light summer of running. Fast shoe, yes; just be prepared to replace quickly

Lots of use and still holding up!

I've worn this brand/model for years. Same normal side to side/heel/toe box fit as before, but as I run, I feel like my toes are falling over the edge. It's almost like there's less cushion/sole on front of shoe compared to previous years. Hoping that a longer break in fixes the issue.

I am a near daily runner, running about 20 miles a week. I have wide feet, and the 2E width is plenty wide for me, easily as wide as New Balance 4E sizing. From the moment I tried them on my local running shoe store, I knew they were the best fitting shoe I had ever had. I liked them so much I went searching for more on the Mizuno site and found some of last year's model. I'm just as happy with the 28s as 29s.

I have five pairs of these and I wear them about 14 hours a day.

My favorite running shoe for all my marathons

Good update on an already great trainer.

I have loved the previous Wave Riders from 25 through 27 and while this shoe is still great, it fits slightly different. I have issues with weak calves and these shoes really help.

I wear a 9.5 in other mizuno shoes and these were way too small

Haven't run in a Rider since the 24, this felt a little softer and lighter.

I am a large man and these were recommended by my wife. They are very high quality, look better IRL than the images and walk fantastic. I wear a 13 in most shoes but these did run a little small, I would go larger on next pair.

In the past I have bought the same shoe size but this one seems to run just a little bit small. I'm going to buy the wide fit version to see if there is a better fit.

Another excellent Wave Rider

These are my favorite running shoes. Great support and fit

I haven't worn Mizuno in like a decade. Finally tried to get a new pair and they don't fit. I tried the 9.5 US and it was too big. I returned it for a 9 US and it was too small. Happens every once in a while with other shoe brands. Almost like my feet are metric and the shoes are standard units.

I have been running with wave riders for over a decade now. These are the best yet.

I ran in college and this is my go-to shoe. The last 2 years I have been trying other brands and models, and when I came back my size had changed, so I'm swapping that out.

I have purchased Wave Riders dating back over 10 years. The comfort, stability, quality and craftsmanship are unmatched.

I walk 6 days a week with these sneakers. Very comfortable and supportive.

This is a good looking as well as a quality shoe. Very comfortable and fits my needs. I walk, jog, and do other exercises that this shoe performs well.

Great fit. Perfect all black shoe for my soccer refereeing.
