Neutral. With a return to the fit, feel and performance that has made the Wave® Rider™ Series a franchise unto itself, Mizuno’s Wave® Rider™ 15 provides the cushioning, durability and flexibility for the best ride ever.

Upper: AIRMesh™ with synthetic overlays for support provides the utmost in breathability and comfort of the upper. Dynamotion Fit™ relieves the stress the foot naturally places on footwear and eliminates distortion in the collar and heel during the gait cycle for a perfect fit.

Midsole: The Mizuno Wave® is a leading footwear technology that combines cushioning and stability, two distinctly different elements that are both inherently necessary in great running shoes. Gender specific engineering is a philosophy to maximize performance by tailoring footwear to the separate needs of men and women. Men’s gender specific engineering provides a wider sole. The Mizuno Wave™ is SmoothRide™ Engineered. This SmoothRide™ Engineering approach is used to minimize the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot during transition, creating the smoothest ride possible. AP+ enhances the inherent properties of the AP midsole, offering increased rebound and a "bouncier" feeling, which extends the cushion durability, while maintaining the light weight performance. VS-1 Shock-absorbing cushioning compound is found in the heel to absorb the forces from heel strike. The Mizuno Intercool Full-length midsole ventilation system reduces heat and humidity build-up inside the shoe. A removable sockliner provides a responsive first feel.

24mm heel height, 12mm forefoot height.

Outsole: X-10™ featured in this shoe is the most durable carbon rubber that allows for longer wear in high impact areas and supplements traction at heel strike. SmoothRide Engineered, a solid rubber forefoot outsole design for durability and cushioning, now with flex controllers built to optimize flexibility.

Available in width D (Medium).

Gender Engineering: The Wave® Rider™ 15 addresses the fundamental differences between the way men and women run. Through extensive research, Mizuno has learned that creating shoes that fit closer to these specific running styles, performance is maximized.

Since men are generally heavier than women, their running shoes must be able to absorb greater impact forces. Running shoe soles with an inadequate width can lead to a feeling of insecurity. Therefore, Mizuno has introduced a wider, slightly flared sole, increasing the landing area in the men's running shoes. The result is a more stable and secure run.

Shoefitr uses 3D scanners to collect a shoe's internal measurements.

The measurements of your current shoe are compared to the one you want...

...and Shoefitr recomments the best fit.

          The size seemed a bit short. After my first long run in them I got blisters and tore a nail.
          However they are lightweight and fast.

            Comments about Mizuno Wave Rider 15 Limited Edition Men:

            I have had knee surgery 4 times (one of which was reconstructive). It is so hard to find that perfect combination of cushioning without being too squishy. These shoes are the perfect combination. Add to that the fact that it is perhaps the best shoe overall that I have used in many years of training - I am putting in about 35 miles/week currently, and I have never felt anything but comfort, speed and confidence that this was the right shoe to purchase.

            Service and delivery comments:

            First time with Holabird and DEFINITELY not the last. I was super-impressed with the service, and the prices are crazy-low compared to everyone else. I have been recommending them to all my sports buddies.

                    A:

                    The Mizuno Wave Rider 15 should fit the same as the Wave Rider 14. You should be able to stick with the same size.
