Customer Reviews Mizuno Wave Rider 28

I am not a runner. My feet hurt at times. This is the 4th pair of Mizuno running shoes that I have had. They work better for me than the brand of "orthopedic" shoes.

These fit perfectly with my orthotics!

I am 70 years old and I wear Mizuno all the time (except to church or symphony). I change the laces though they are always way too long. I replace them with 45" round laces.

I run with these. I weigh about 210 and can hold a 9 - 9:15 mile pace. Exercise for health more than "speed" and these shoes last me easily 225+ miles.

Great shoe. I'm stocking up on these because 12mm drop is going away in most shoes.

I use these for medium to long runs, and they've never let me down.

I appreciate the wide 2E size.

The Wave Rider 28 are very comfortable and I like the choice of colors

Mizuno Wave Rider 28 reminds me of Wave 11 which was last time Mizuno made a good outstanding shoe that worked with insoles or arch supports. Wave Rider 29 is softer and has less support, but works with arch supports.

Ive been purchasing Wave Rider models for at least 10 years. Always fit well and I never have foot issues

The wave rider has been one of my go to shoes when I want something quality. The 28's don't disappoint. Another good iteration of a quality shoe.

Great shoe, I buy all the time

great fit.

I've run in Mizuno Wave Riders on and off over the years and keep coming back to them after trying other shoes. They provide a good amount of support for long distance training, while not being bulky or heavy. The waveplate combined with cushioning provides good support and a quick transition.

I have ordered same shoe, same size for years. Hope to do so going forward as well. On my feet for 10 hours/day at work. These shoes work for me.

I have been using Mizuno running shoes (Wave riders) since 2004 - perfect for neutral balance (no pronation) and appropriate cushioning with a snug fit for my narrow feet but enough space at the front for the feet to not feel like they are in a shoe. Definitely recommend alternating shoes as the sole is a bit soft and needs recovery time - specially if you are running long distances. I size up by half a size - always have - and that gives my toes a small amount of space. Still hit the top and get blackened toes on the longest toe - not an issue with the shoe, but with how I hold my feet while running. The only downside over the past 20+ years of my use of these shoes is that I see they are getting less robust - even as my running has decreased from marathon training to just the occasional trot around the park.

The fit is slightly on the small side. Order half size up.

The Wave Rider is my favorite running shoe. I got a great price on this pair with fast, free shipping.

I highly recommend

These shoes are great for me on my 4 mile walks each morning. I used to get foot pain and some numbness in my feet with other shoes. Now with the Mizuno's, I go 4 miles and I'm good to go for more.

These shoes have been incredibly supportive. They are gentle on my joints, and are useful in terms of going on long walks and runs. Good for indoor and outdoor use, too.

Comfortable shoe with the heel to toe drop,12mm that is needed. Quality materials and workmanship.

I've worn this shoe for almost a decade now. Switched from the Kayanos. It's a great all around shoe but works particularly well for a bigger runner like myself (6-1 200). I can put hundreds of miles on each pair.

I love these shoes. They are very comfortable, and I wear them all day long. Only thing I need to change is to get shoe strings that are 6 inches shorter.

Switched over from another brand, love the fit and cushion of these shoes.
