 great shoe September 24, 2008
I just recently got this shoe. I had been running in Nike Pegasus shoes and was constantly getting blisters especially after long runs >8 miles. This is my first pair of Mizunos. WOW! They are so comfortable. I was afraid because they are a little higher and heavier that they might be a little clunky, but they are the smoothest shoe I have ever run in. I can whole heartedly recommend this shoe, or at least trying it out. (everyone's feet are different). The plastic plate shock absorbers, work really well and feel very responsive. I was going to get the Wave Rider 11s but they felt a little too soft, even though they were lighter. I haven't worn them long enough to discuss the durability. All in all I am really happy with this shoe.

I've been running in the Mizuno Wave Creation for almost ten years now. I have sent Mizuno a lot of money over the years. I've stayed with the model through several improvements/iterations, because for me, once I've found a shoe that works for me, I tend to stick with it until it stops working. Also, honestly, I'd rather avoid all the trouble of finding a new "perfect" home for my feet.
Well, I think the time to re-initiate the search may have come. The latest iteration of the MWC has a looser build about it, with the insole side feeling like it's made of two separate pieces held together only with some flimsy elastic. It's just odd and feels cheap.
In any case, my next pair of running shoes may be another pair of MWCs, but it will only be after I've tried on what's available from the other manufacturers -- something I have not done in a long time.
 Mizuno WR 9 vs. Asics Gel Nimbus 10: Go with Asics July 29, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Bought the Mizuno Wave Runner 9 shoe and the Asics Gel Nimbus 10's at the same time. I found the Asics to be the best fit for me....
Pluses:
* Designed for medium to high arches - good comfort in upper shoe area
* Material/ventilation permits good shoe breathability
* Shoe design seemingly propels you forward - very healthy heel cushioning system
* Good looking shoe
Concerns:
* Feels like fore-foot and midfoot is swimming in the shoe - not nearly as snug as Asics fit
* Have read that the shoe fits 1/2 to full size small - don't buy it - get sized
* Shoes on heavy side at 13.9 oz (vs. Asics Gel Nimbus 10 @ 12.4 oz)
* While heel has good cushioning, mid-foot and toe cushioning feels inadequate in comparison
The best shoes ever. I enjoy every step of the way. July 28, 2008
Excellent shoes i love run with it. I have already run almost 200 KM after i bought between training and some 10km competition.
Mizuno Wave Creation 9 July 18, 2008
It's an excellent tennis. Its deadening system and construction are very efficient. I recommend it.
