I never thought that I would stray from my other shoe brand – I’ve been very loyal for a long time but then I got some encouragement to try these shoes out and all I can say is WOW.
From the moment I opened the box I loved the colouring and design. But of course that’s not the most important thing. The fit, support, and cushioning was also first class. I have flat feet and I really loved how this shoe is very supportive but still has lots of cushioning. The cushioning part is important since I also put my orthodics in them.
Mizuno’s definitely have a more precise fit so it’s going to feel tighter if you wear your true size – so I strongly suggest going up a 1/2 size especially if you do long runs in the summer.
The price is also good. The similar “class of shoe” with my other brand was over $200 with taxes. Right now you can get this one on sale for $149.99 + taxes. http://www.runningfree.com/detail.aspx?ID=15106
I think I’ll be wearing this shoe for a long time.
PS. It comes in blue 🙂
