Additionally, the half-bootie upper ensures an extra snug and comfortable fit without any pressure points so you can continue with comfort and ease. Working with the bootie construction is the rounded heel which supports the foot whilst also allowing for quick and smooth movements in all directions. Completing the upper is a lacing system which locks down the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.

Mizuno Wave Midsole

Mizuno's wave technology is embedded into the midsole to provide flexibility in one direction and support in the other. The midsole technology works to absorb the shock of heel striking without compromising the comfort or cushioning. Once the shock has been absorbed the energy from that is harnessed and is then transferred to the forefoot to then push you off and guide you onto the next movement. The wave prevents partial deformation and provides dynamic support to stabilise and guide the foot forward. Furthermore, another exceedingly lightweight material used in the midsole is known as PoWnCe which offers excellent comfort and resilience properties.
