MIZUNO WAVE REBELLION HIGHLIGHTS

A NEW CONCEPT WITH FIBERGLASS

The new Wave Rebellion arrives with the aim of giving a plus to the runners, both in short-medium distance races, as well as in speed training and series. All this helped by the maximum amoritguation. It is a shoe designed to obtain the prefect balance between rigidity and flexibility, while providing cushioning and a soft, reactive touch. For them, Mizuno has created the new WAVE incorporating a fiberglass plate from the heel to the forefoot, which together with the Mizuno Enerzy lite foam gives us a super light touch and 35% more reactivity than the standard Enerzy.

UPPER

Upper designed in one piece, light and breathable. It incorporates the Mizuno logo in 3D to enhance it and give it a much more current touch. It also includes a gusset tongue, very thin and that fits perfectly to all types of insteps. This type of cover along with the rest of the materials makes this Mizuno a very light shoe of only 230 grams.

MIDSOLE

As we have already indicated, this new shoe comes with a new Wave with fiberglass plate, which together with the Enerzy lite will offer us reactivity in abundance. With a height to the ground of 28’5mm in its front and 36’5mm in its back, it leaves us 8mm of drop. As you can see, great cushioning and high profiles, something that most brands are already getting used to.
The plate, reinforced with fiberglass combines bio-based plastic (obtained from castor seeds) with the fiber giving a very interesting result.

SOLE

Sole with G3 technology, which guarantees good grip, we can see a very interesting design in the sole, in which we can perfectly see the plate on the back. With a very futuristic taco design.

CONCLUSION

We are facing a new model of shoe, which incorporates fiberglass in its midsole. Probably to save costs with respect to carbon fiber, but looking for the maximum possible reactivity. A priori a mixed shoe, which will give both for fast and light training, as well as for competitions. With a weight of 230 grams, probably intended for light runners (no more than 70kg), but thanks to its great cushioning, it can possibly be used by somewhat heavier runners. As for rhythms, we believe that it will move perfectly in rhythms below 5’/km. And it will be an ideal shoe for short-medium races, being able to be used in longer distances by light runners with good technique.
