Reviews

Have been wearing wave riders

"Have been wearing wave riders since no. 17"

Lisa M. (5/5)

I have been wearing Wave

"I have been wearing Wave Riders for a very long time now and it seems every model of the shoe gets smaller and smaller in size. I brought online and went up half a size but the shoe is still small. For anyone wanting to purchase ensure you go up a full size. I cannot wear these shoes to run in as my feet are too squashed and uncomfortable and I can only wear them to gym classes."

Trudy E. (3/5)

This shoe is great for

"This shoe is great for people who require a neutral fit. I have been wearing it and its predecessors since 2019. I cannot praise it enough for its comfort and performance. In terms of the other factors i have been asked to rate I believe it equals other shoes on the market. All shoes wear out after a certain period of time."

Great shoe. I have feet

"Great shoe. I have feet issues and find I can wear these all days without feeling uncomfortable. These are my 2nd pair. I usually wear a 6, but go up a size in these, I bought a 7. Great service and delivery too. Highly recommend."

Carolynne V. (5/5)

Disappointed in sizing. Toe box

"Disappointed in sizing. Toe box is tight even with the wide. Length feels a little cramped, probably due to heel padding. I am a 13. 5 and decided to go up to 14 and wide. Really wanted this shoe to be my workhorse but it has now become a sneaker."

K L. (2/5)

Lightweight and very comfortable shoes

"Lightweight and very comfortable shoes that feel like slippers. I've tried ascics, Nike, adidas, brooks, new balance and these Mizanos are the best so far!"

Nicollette R. (5/5)

"Love my muzunos . . . been wearing this brand for years. Highly recommended . . . never want to wear another shoe!!!"

Kim C. (5/5)

I have two other styles

"I have two other styles of Mizuno which are amazing. I bought the same size for these but they are so small I only wore them once. They bruised my big toe black."

Jen G. (1/5)
