Mizuno Running Shoes, womens running shoes & mizuno football boots offer Serious Performance!
Mizuno Technology
APPAREL
Action
Design technology that coordinates fabric characteristics with specific sport patterns, eliminating stress and allowing unrestricted motion for better performance.
Arctic touch
Arctic Touch is Mizuno's most developed fabric with high heat control function. Due to our unique heat-transfer theory, it releases heat generated during exercise efficiently and keeps you feeling comfortably cool.
BIOGEAR
Mizuno's new 'stretch' material supports your body in all areas, allowing all your power to be fully directed at your game. This new sportswear is called 'BIO-GEAR' - Mizuno's performance enhancing technology providing comfort and ease of body.
Breath Thermo
A new and revolutionary thermal material which generates heat allowing continuous warmth to the user. Breath Thermo creates perfect apparel for the active outdoor sportsperson in colder climate conditions.
How the heat is generated
Breath Thermo yarn is treated so it does not expand. Heat is generated from the energy created when the yarn tries to control itself from expanding. The heat becomes trapped inside the Breath Thermo fabric, allowing continuous warmth to the user, and perfect apparel for the active outdoor sportsperson in colder climate conditions.
CoolMax
The Fastest drying high-tec fabric. Coolmax pulls sweat away, so you are dry, comfortable and ready for anything.
DFCut
DFC allows Mizuno to produce patterns (garment blueprints) which allow the body greater freedom of movement whilst still providing support and protection. Garments with DFC are custom designed for each particular sport.
Dry
Moisture management fabric technology that moves perspiration away from the skin and disperses it over a greater surface area for increased evaporation.
Dryscience
Mizuno Dryscience moisture management technology offers to the runner a series of high performance by keeping the body dry and comfortable during exercise.
Ice Touch
Ice Touch dissipates the heat caused by sweat vapour, keeping you cool and dry. Mizuno tests show that the temperature under Ice Touch fabric is 1-2 degrees centigrade lower than cotton or polyester. Ice Touch quickly absorbs and moves sweat to the fabric's surface, preventing stickiness and keeping you comfortably dry.
Sanitary
Sanitised treatment that prevents odour and the spread of bacteria to maintain a fresh and clean feel.
FOOTWEAR
Airmesh
AIRmesh allows each running shoe from Mizuno to maintain a high standard of breathability for the life of the shoe, and allows for the foot to stay cool.
AP Mid Sole
Lightweight and responsive, a more resilient base for maximum responsiveness with every foot strike.
BioLock
BioLock is a simple, yet revolutionary heel-fit system that allows for the best heel fit available and enhances performance by eliminating heel slippage to reduce wasted motion.
Gore Tex
Featuring GORE-TEX XCR in the upper, providing water resistance amd comfort for all conditions.
Mizuno Intercool
Mizuno Intercool solves the problem of heat and humidity build-up in a running shoe, by incorperating a full length ventilation system in the sole of the shoe that removes heat and humidity from the foot through a system of ventilation channels.
Mizuno wave
A unique technology that combines two distinctly different elements that are both inherently necessary in great running shoes, cushioning and stability. Excessive force and stress is placed upon the body during the act of running, it is therefore imperative to have the correct blend of cushioning and stability to minimise the risk of injury.
The wave plate provides excellent cushioning by dispersing the force of impact across a larger surface area. The stability aspect of Wave technology is gained by the constuction differing between the outside (lateral) and the inside (medial) of the shoe, therefore resisting the compression of the midsole in high pressure areas. The basic elements of cushioning and stability in a Wave plate can be adjusted to cater for any type of runner. Thus resulting in the lightest technologically advanced Serious Performance sports shoes.
SensorPoint
Stability and Traction. Mizuno's revolutionary suspension system which uses studs that connect the Wave plate directly to the ground, thereby enhancing stability and traction.
VS-1
Shock Absorption and cushioning, VS-1 absorbs shock and enhances cushioning properties by resisting compression - set, thus extending the cushioning life of running shoes.
Wet Traction
Bi-Directional outsole rubber synthetic leather compound breaks through water, improving grip in all conditions.
X10
X-10 provides the most durable carbonrubber from Mizuno that alllows for longer wear in high impact areas and provides more traction at heel strike.
SOZO Studio
Is the spirit with which Mizuno has created a revolutionary design studio to cultivate cutting-edge concepts and methodologies for the development of sports equipment. Using innovative computer simulation which replicates physical characteristics, such as bone structure and muscle mass and then analyses the impact forces generated by various physical traits and running styles, Mizuno is able to determine the exact quantity and positioning of cushioning and stability materials within the midsole of a shoe.
Smoothride
Maximum comfort, ultimate feel, unsurpassed performance
Direct from Mizuno's Sozo Studio comes SmoothRide Engineering, the next generation in performance footwear design.
Designed to minimise the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot through the phases of the running cycle by reducing shock and increasing flexibility. This allows Mizuno to create running footwear that provides an extremely comfortable running experience through an even smoother ride.
