Mizuno Wave Inspire 6
I bought a pair of these locally several months ago based on recommendations from a local triathlon outfitter and have loved running in them. When I reached almost 400 miles on them, I bought a second pair from Amazon to break in so they are ready for a Ragnar Relay in November. These are not the lightest shoes by far, but the comfort and stability of them for some amount of supination in my stride makes them the only shoe I want to run in at this point. I was suffering from shin splints so much that my mileage had dwindled to almost nothing each week until I bought the first pair of these and started working my mileage back up. I have a pair of Asic Gel-Strike shoes that have been reduced to everyday shoes because they are nowhere near as comfortable to run in as the Mizunos.
great running shoe
great running shoe, the boyfriend wears it religiously and we have like 10pairs of them.
Wave Inspire
I'm on my second pair of Wave Inspires and they've been good to me. I'm about to buy a third pair (one for the gym, one for the road). FYI, Mizumo apparently increments the model number each year. My first pair was a Wave Inspire 5 and the second pair is the Wave Inspire 6. The newest model out is Wave Inspire 7.
I run in a size that's 1/2 larger than my street shoes and the toe box in the Wave Inspire is roomy enough that they don't jam my toes. I had my stride/gait analyzed by a Mizumo factory rep at my local running store and the support provided by the Wave Inspire fits my stride/gait. I run about 25 miles a week and was having some IT band irritation at the knees until I switched to these shoes.
But your results may vary depending on your running patterns. Mizumo has many different models that vary by shoe weight and the degree of support provided. Get a feel for what model is best for you with the Mizumo precision fit analyzer at [..] or have your running analyzed at your local running store.
