For medium support and stability, this running shoe has all the features you need to get out there and enjoy your run. Mizuno technology offers a smooth ride every time with a softer shock absorbing crash pad in the heel and a balanced heel to toe transition. This shoe offers support through a double fan Wave plate design, but maintains flexibility with a break in the upper between the center laces. These features provide security for your foot but also allow the shoe to move with your foot while running. Lightweight, well ventilated and responsive.
