Mizuno | Men’s Wave Rider 28 Running Shoes – Vintage Indigo

Advice for Road Runners: Runners seeking a propulsive underfoot experience for everyday miles should enjoy running in the Mizuno Men’s Wave Rider 28 Running Shoes.

Underfoot Feel

The heel wedge of the midsole features Mizuno Enerzy Nxt foam. This nitrogen-infused foam is very soft and responsive. 

A Mizuno Wave Plate sits above this foam. This structure helps disperse impact forces, improves stability, and propels you forward. 

The remainder of the Mizuno Waver Rider 28 Running Shoes’ midsole is made up of Mizuno Enerzy cushioning. This soft and highly energy returning material should feel great while running at steadier efforts.

Overall, you should experience a lot of protection, coupled with great responsiveness.

Upper Fit

The Mizuno Wave Rider 28 Running Shoes’ upper has a jacquard air mesh. Flexible PU Print reinforcement adds structure to the upper and offers support for your feet. A sculpted tongue helps improve comfort.

Ideal Run Type

Some running shoes are best suited to a specific type of effort. That’s not the case with the Mizuno Men’s Wave Rider 28 Running Shoes.

The highly-cushioned and propulsive midsole should perform across a range of paces. As a result, these could work well for slower paced runs, and steadier efforts. This is a particularly beneficial quality if you like to mix the pace of your runs from day to day.

Sizing Advice

Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone’s feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.

Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb’s width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).

This usually means that your running shoe will be at least a half size bigger than your regular shoe size though this can vary from brand to brand.
