I have had multiple joint issues. These shoes were fit for me by a professional consultant, and have not disappointed.

I walk almost daily. This is a great shoe for support and comfort. I'm on my second pair after using and abusing my first ones over a 2 year period.

Great for runners with narrow feet. I'm normally a women's 7.5 but I size up to women's 8 for length and it's still narrow enough. I've been wearing it for years and am training for my 4th marathon right now and still love this shoe. I switched to a different brand for marathon #2 and had shin splints for the first time in my life while training - couldn't be happier after coming back to the Wave Rider. The mostly white design also looks great with any athleisure fit. I literally have this purchase on repeat.

Love this shoe! Getting ready to buy another pair as this has been the best shoe for my Achilles tendinitis. Best model in a while. Great structure and cushion - shoe has been tremendous in my race prep this season.

This shoe is consistently the best - every time I try something else I regret it and come back to Mizuno. I am a short distance runner, running for general fitness and stress relief (about 15-20 miles a week on paved paths). Sometimes I wish the colors were better, that's the only thing that could be improved. Please don't change this shoe!

The Mizuno Wave Rider 28 running shoes have provided the best support for my feet. Getting a foot analysis at Fleet Feet was suggested by my podiatrist. The analysis and support from the shoe salesman led me to Mizuno. I did not have any knowledge of these shoes and the support they provide for all my activities. My new go to shoes!

I really like the fit of these shoes. They're comfortable straight from the box and last many miles.
The sizing is a bit off, I bought a 9.5 when I'm usually a 9.

I have been using the wave rider's in their various editions since high school. These ones are great too. They hold up super well over time and are worth the investment in keeping your feet happy.

I have been wearing the wave Ryder as my trusty race/running shoe for almost 15 years ! The model keeps getting better as it evolves too.

I have had multiple pairs of these shoes over the years. They are always comfortable and stylish. I have one pair for the gym and a second for everyday wear. Other than the subtle changes in some of the fabric on the shoe it has been consistent in the feel support and comfort. It is true to size for me as well.

I was concerned about the size of the sole, but my feet love these shoes. I'm a ride or die on Wave Rider shows, but get concerned when things change. Glad I stuck it out.

I'm running my third marathon of 2025 and I've ran in the wave rider. They just fit my feet like a glove! I will say I had to get a wide in the 27 and now in the 28 I don't need a wide so to me it felt like the regular width got wider than previous versions. However, still a great everyday neutral shoe. It's cushioned but not too much which I prefer. I have tried other brands and continue to come back to the wave rider. I feel like they are true to size as I get my running shoes a full size up from my regular size.
