They run Small!! I had to up a whole size!
I wear a women's 7.5 but I have had to go up a whole size in these shoes to find my size. I Adore these shoes. There were the first shoe to not hurt me so bad I'd rather just cut my feet off. I work shoe retail and that is how I discovered these shoes. They were on clearance for 22$ Money well spent and I have been buying them for 4 years now. But they are beautiful and comfortable

Comfortable, Sturdy and Attractive
This is at least my 8th pair of Wave Riders to buy, and my favorite brand and style of athletic shoes. I wear a size larger (8) than I do with my other styles of shoes (7) and they are comfortable right out of the box. I have Plantar Fasciitis and these are the only athletic shoes I have found that I don't need an insert to avoid flare ups. I wear them for walking, hiking and pickle ball, and other everyday use. I walk/hike approximately 800 miles per year in them, and they hold up well through every mile for at least a year. Older pairs become house and yard shoes each year when I get a new pair. They are easy to clean, too, by hand or in the washing machine.

Great shoe but size up
I have worn a version of the Wave Rider for twenty years. This is a very comfortable, neutral shoe with lots of cushion. I have a narrow foot and run 15-20 miles per week. Unfortunately, the sizing appears to have changed with the 29. I normally size up half a size but I should’ve gone up a full size with this version. I am getting sore toes which is very unusual for me.So it’s a good shoe but definitely size up!

Life Changer!!
This shoe really rocks. I have travelled around the world and always had to deal with painful feet at the end of the day. I purchased this after it trying it out at a local shoe store and this is a game changer for me. I went on a 16 day tour of Europe and did not suffer foot pain even one. The design, comfort and quality is unmatched. Mizuno forever now.

Love My Mizuno Wave Riders
Fit like a glove! I've been buying Mizuno Wave Rider for well over a decade. Had switched to another well known brand a couple of years ago, and didn't like them. So I came back to Mizuno and glad I did. This latest 29 version are comfy and well padded. I'm an avid walker (6 miles a week) and found I have to replace about every 1-12 year or so, but it's worth the money. As far as size, I'm one of those weird folks that measure out much smaller than I wear. I have worn an 8 in the past, but noticed I wear out the tops at my big toe, so I ordered an 8.5 and it gives me a little more room. And I have square feet, but the medium (regular width) gives me plenty of room. Will stick with what feels best.

Love these mizuno running shoes
I loved these shoes so much, I bought a second pair to alternate them! I wear a size 7 in street shoes, as is my standard I bought half a size up and they’re perfect! Last week I worn them for a 10k and they’re perfect were comfortable start to finish! They’re perfect for neutral runners, those who don’t need the max in cushioning or pronation control!
