Mizuno Neo Vista 2 Men's Running Shoes
The Neo Vista 2 is a game-changing 'super trainer" designed for mile after mile of endless, joyous running! Featuring Mizuno's unique formation of technology, it enhances responsiveness and cushioning, helping you improve your performance and propel you into every stride with ease. The 2nd generation of this iconic shoe immerses you into the act of running, paying homage to the simple, blissful needs of the runner, alongside the technical simplicity of the Vista 2 design.
One-Piece Soft Knit Upper
Encasing each foot with breathable comfort, the shoes feature a premium, one-piece soft knit upper. The uppers hug the foot securely and, with perforations strategically placed throughout, supply feet with optimum breathability. The constant supply of airflow to your feet will prevent discomfort when under more pressure and ensure that they stay fresh from start to finish of your run. Featuring a sock-like fit, the materials encase feet comfortably and securely, helping reduce unnecessary, excessive movement and allowing you to quickly and efficiently slip your foot in when rushing out for your next run. These materials provide an intricate variation of tension in the uppers to offer a firmer lockdown in the midfoot and a relaxed sensation through the forefoot for comfortable, natural toe-splay. Further providing in-shoe security and extra levels of stability, a heel counter locks down the rear foot, adding security whilst retaining comfort for every run. The stretchy sock-like design has a soft, integrated tongue and seamless design that sits comfortably against your foot, preventing excessive movement and reducing irritation. A traditional lace-up construction locks down the midfoot for stability and security when running on changing road surfaces. Finally, a heel loop helps put the shoes on and take them off much more easily.
Mizuno Enerzy NXT Midsole
Improving on cushioning and overall responsiveness, the Neo Vista 2 features a new nitrogen-infused Mizuno Enerzy NXT midsole. This next-generation high-performance material features at the top of the midsole for soft, comfortable strides. This updated technology is lighter than previous Enerzy foams, providing greater cushioning for increased output, keeping you pushing for much longer. Its soft rebound keeps you feeling bouncy and energetic for constant comfort. Absorbing shocks and impact when striking down on tough, unforgiving surfaces, the shoes reduce injury and discomfort, keeping you focused on the road ahead. Working alongside this is Mizuno's Smooth Speed Assist technology, which lessens the load on your calf and muscles, enhances support, and ensures a more efficient running form. The structure enhances your daily mileage and long jogs for effortless high performance while encouraging smooth transitions. Iconic to Mizuno, the Neo Vista 2 includes a Mizuno Wave plate, sandwiched between the midsole foam. The wave-shaped nylon plate is reinforced with glass fibre, which keeps your feet stable and supports you without sacrificing cushioning. Softer than carbon but firmer than TPU, the plate is the perfect choice for a swift and exciting daily running experience.
X10 Outsole
Supplying optimum grip and traction underfoot, and keeping you supported across an array of road running surfaces, the Neo Vista 2 features an X10 outsole. This is a durable, grippy carbon rubber compound that allows you to traverse long, road-running ventures and is super durable for long-lasting reliability. The rubber is more present on the lateral heel, adding durability in high-impact areas and providing more traction during heel strikes. Updated from the first version, the shoes have even more grip on the outsole to keep you focused on your performance and the miles ahead. The forefoot flex grooves and flex controllers then work together to continue the smooth forward motion, resulting in an efficient fluid motion that allows runners to harness their power.
