The Wave plate while Mizuno told us it is not as flat as before was less noticed and there was less arch pressure I immediately noticed walking around the store:
#MIZUNO WAVE RIDER 21 OSAKA HOMME II FULL#
Hearing that the Wave Rider 25 would get a full Enerzy midsole with an updated geometry, but still with the classic big drop 32mm heel / 20mm stack I was curious to test.Īs soon as I received and not having the WR24 I went to my local running store, Runner’s Alley, and tried one on each foot. Then the recent Wave Sky 4 a far firmer not as pleasant ride with a basically un noticeable layer of Enerzy.
The Wave Sky 3 was a pleasant surprise a few years back with its surprisingly springy big shoe ride. Sam: Mizuno is not a brand I have run much until recent years. What we have here is a sleek looking, well balanced and protective trainer you would wear several times a week if it finds a place in your rotation. The Wave Rider 25 continues Mizuno’s tradition of including a plastic Wave Plate (now in a new geometry and made of bio based PEBA materials) running from the rear to midfoot to provide a stable but springy ride. Google it, it’s a thing! Fast forward to now, where the Wave Rider 25 forwards the lineage of Mizuno’s long standing traditional daily trainer, and the second iteration to feature the Enerzy midsole which is claimed to be 17% softer and delivers 15% more energy return than previously used materials. Article by Bryan Lim, Zack Dunn, Jeff Beck, and Sam Winebaumīryan: I’m not sure if you remember Mizuno’s almost farcical release of ‘The Mizuno Enerzy’ which featured a pink bubbled midsole that resembled a Hong Kong Egg Waffle.
