Wish I had all the beautiful colors.
Love the shoe! Since having a minor stroke, my walking has been troubled. This shoe has room in the toe area, and the sole gives me the balance I need. I've received compliments on how beautiful the color is and how comfortable they look.

Nice looking and comfortable
This was the fourth time I have bought this brand. It really fits my foot - plenty of room for the toes while not too big in the heel. I think it runs a little small, so you might need to order a half size up.

Best shoes ever
I could not be happier. I love these shoes they are perfect for my feet, i swear i want them in all the colors!! This is my second pair (already had them in black and wanted them in white too) and I want to buy a third already. I am regularly an 8 or 8.5 and with these I went with the 8.5 and they fit like a glove, they are made for my feet, I can wear them all day and not a single ache in my foot. I used to use the white chunky onclouds, but dang how they hurt arter trying these. I am a medical assistant and am on my feet most of the day mon-fri 8-5 and best believe these are my everyday shoes, I don’t wear any other shoes that are not my mizuno’s. 10/10 recommend :)If you are between sizes go with the bigger one since when I tried the size 8 at a store they were a bit snug and the 9 was too loose for my taste. If you have a regular size foot (not skinny but not wide) these are perfect with the best toe box for your toes and it will not squish them.

Very good running shoe
Very underrated running shoe. I needed to replace my Brooks Ghost 15. But the 16 & 17 just wasn’t the same. The Mizuno is a good stable shoe with a wide toe box and it’s high on your heel to add to the stability. For running (feet swell, running downhill), I would say it runs a little small. I sized up a 1/2 size and it’s perfect.

Shoe design causing ankle bruising
Long time Mizuno loyal customer here- and these shoes are the worst! I’ve never had any trouble with any of their running shoes until these. I can’t wear them and now I’m outside the return window because I was hoping “breaking them in” would make them better. Nope. They hit my ankle on the right foot to the point of bruising my lateral malleolus. I looked into this, and apparently this specific model has caused the same problem for other users. Not to mention, I feel the quality of the shoes seems much cheaper compared to older models, more foam.

Comfortable!
I have been wearing Mizuno running shoes for a few years now. I ordered these solid black ones after my workplace changed the uniform policy and allowed employees to wear black athletic shoes instead of just work boots. As it turned out the shoes did not provide the support I needed for the rigors of my job but that's not the shoes' fault. I ended up using them as another pair of athletic shoes as my other Mizunos were getting worn out, and they were just as good as the old ones. I had always bought the Wave Inspire series but these Wave Rider 28s fit me great too. I have a tragically narrow foot and these work wonderfully for my feet. I actually hate the solid black color and think it is ugly as homemade sin, but it's what I needed for the uniform. :) I will be glad when these wear out so I can order a pretty, girly color again but it's going to be a while! In the meantime these are providing great support!
