The Mizuno Wave Rider 26 continues a strong lineage of reliable and stable comfort. Due to the unique wave plate technology, Mizuno has created a lightweight and propulsive underfoot feel. The 26th iteration has made some massive gains in increasing the amount of their ENERZY foam by 17%. This dials up the comfort and increases the energy return EVEN further.

Mizuno have adjusted the geometry and a single vertical flex groove delivers a snappier toe-off experience. The Wave Plate Technology in the rear foot compliments the snappy toe-off and maintains a stable landing and transition.
