Customer Reviews

Agree - very stiff for running, but makes for good trainers
I bought these to back up a pair of well-cushioned (but well-worn) Asics Gel Kinetics. Running in these Mizunos is like running in track spikes - that nifty wave design gives me virtually no heel cushioning. On the plus side, the toe box is not as unnecessarily "tall" as those on the Asics. The Asics are like running on pillows by comparison. All is not lost, though. I found that these Mizunos have a far better grip on surfaces (e.g., keeping my feet from sliding when doing planks or stability exercises), so they're now my gym trainers. Maybe I'm not heavy enough to compress the heels. I'm 130 lbs, and the shoes might be designed for a heavier runner. Too bad, I was hoping to have another pair of running shoes. I was swayed by a stellar review from a friend, but she may never have tried running in Asics!

stiff run
I am avid runner and decided to try this shoe after a friend recommended it. On my first run, the shoes felt very stiff like I was running on cement. Even after a few weeks of running, they never broke in. There is no give in the heels which made my legs tire quickly. I run about 5 days a week, 8 miles a day. I finally threw these shoes away and went back to my Asics!!! Usually new running shoes feel like you are running on clouds....these DID NOT feel like that at all. I do not recommend these shoes.

good for high arches
These shoes are not very soft and cushy, but are very supportive during my runs, and are good for my high arches.
