Mizuno Wmns Wave Elixir 7 - Wht/Anthra/Violet
The Mizuno Wave Elixir 7 running shoe is the perfect option for serious runners who want a race shoe with a good level of support and cushioning in a lighweight package. Importantly included is Mizuno Wave technology to absorb shock and guide foot through the gait cycle, providing fantastic shock absorption at heel strike. Complementing this, SMOOTHRIDE FLEX CONTROL: Analysis of forefoot transition shows that for the smoothest, most efficient ride runners require shoes that flex easily at first and then become less flexible for an energy efficient toe off. To create a shoe with variable forefoot flex Mizuno has invented a control system which allows the shoe and the foot to flex easily at first and then restricts flexibility during the toe off phase. The result is an extremely smooth and energy efficient transition which means a more effortless and enjoyable ride.
Arguably one of the most important features of the Wave Nexus 6 is the AP+ MIDSOLE: With AP+, Mizuno has engineered a midsole polymer that provides fantastic cushioning mile after mile. Runners will actually see the benefit of AP+ in the increased durability of the midsoles, but more importantly, they will feel the benefit every time they take to the road. A high-tech formulation using multiple polymer types gives AP+ its exceptional performance in terms of cushioning durability, increased rebound and springy feel. Extensive testing has shown that even after 600km of running, the cushioning performance of AP+ stays close to its maximum. Other polymers lose a high proportion of their cushioning properties quite early in their lifetime. But AP+ retains 80% if its cushioning, even after 600km, keeping that fresh out of the box feel. Comfort is accentuated by the unique rebound properties of AP+ which gives it its springy feel. With every impact, AP+ recovers more quickly and more completely than standard midsole polymers giving the shoe a spring which takes less energy out of you.
Also included in the Elixir 7 are features that stand out even on their own. With Dynamotion Fit, 'shoes that move the way you move', you can be sure this shoe will work with your foot throughout the gait cycle to ensure a supportive and comfortable ride of superior quality. Complementing this is X10, Mizuno's most durable carbon rubber, and a G3 performance outsole component that enhances traction where it is needed most.
Together with other technologies such as AIRmesh ventilation and the anatomically moulded Removable INSOCK, there is no denying the Elixir 7's superior comfort and support properties.
