Mizuno Womens Wave Rider 15 - Womens Running Shoes - White-Limoges-Ice Blue
Mizuno use Wave technology to absorb shock and guide the foot through gait cycle. The wave compresses between the midsole units, providing fantastic shock absorption at heel strike. Since all Midsoles have a mileage, owing to the fact that over time the material compresses, Mizuno's new AP+ Midsole takes longer to compress, staying more cushioned for longer. In summary the AP+ Midsole provides a lighter, more cushioned trainer for longer.
Research conducted by Mizuno into Biomechanical differences in gender has resulted in the Wave Rider 15 being perfectly set up for each gender's running Gait.
New Upper overlays provide fantastic fit and comfort, Smoothride technology provides a cushioned and responsive ride, while the Dynamotion fit provides the optimum heel fit. In addition, Neutral wave cushioning combined with VS1 cushioning pad provide highly effective cushioning at heel strike, while the Wave Rider also features removable ortholite sockliner designed to compliment the cushioning in the trainer whilst remaining lightweight.
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.
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 makes for a fantastic ride.
