Mizuno presents the new Wave Sky 5, designed to provide runners with the best possible cushioning and energy return experience. A point of reference for the neutral and cushioned footwear market, the Wave Sky 5 marks a new milestone in offering runners an increasingly comfortable and cushioned running experience. Whether short or long distance runs, the Wave Sky 5 offers the best combination of MIZUNO ENERZY and MIZUNO WAVE technologies.
Designed for neutral runners looking for the highest level of cushioning possible from a running shoe for daily training. A shoe that is extremely comfortable to wear but which, at the same time, offers a high energy return when pushing. The latest updates include a new midsole and upper that significantly improve the fit for a feeling of greater overall comfort.
For the first time the construction of the new midsole is composed of MIZUNO ENERZY Core which extends from heel to toe. An advanced version of MIZUNO ENERZY that provides 193% more cushioning and 56% energy return compared to U4ic.
The improved structure of MIZUNO WAVE guarantees maximum stability without sacrificing cushioning for an always safe ride and with better transition fluidity. The union of MIZUNO ENERZY and MIZUNO WAVE provides the perfect mix of cushioning and energy return with every step.
The Wave Sky 5 is a shoe that weighs 310g (size 8 UK, Men). The construction of the new upper is made of elastic fabric and extends horizontally along the foot to provide the right balance between flexibility and support for an overall more comfortable and snug fit. The upper features holes to improve breathability and has no stress areas on the foot.
MIZUNO WAVE was introduced into running footwear in 1997 and, since then, Mizuno has never stopped innovating this technology by integrating it into an ever-wider range of running shoes.
Inside it contains completely recycled materials: both the heel padding and the laces are made of "Recycled Pet".
