The Mizuno Wave Hitogami is a minimum feature, minimum neutral shoe designed for speed work or racing. Featuring a design inspired by the Japanese Kabuki Theater, this neutral shoe’s thin mesh upper locks your foot in for a secure fit. An innovative U4ic midsole for lightweight and responsive cushioning, while a Wave plate in the heel provides impact protection, making this shoe ideal for long distance.
CUSHIONING
- Mizuno Wave consists of an elastic, thermal plastic wave running from the heel to the midfoot, creating an incredibly springy and well-cushioned ride.
MIDSOLE
- U4ic is a lightweight midsole that provides optimal shock absorption, durability and a resilient ride.
- Smooth Ride is a gender specific network of grooves that minimizes the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot to create a smooth heel to toe ride.
UPPER
- AIRmesh covers the entire upper and provides breathability to keep the foot cool.
- Standard Sockliner provides underfoot comfort.
- Dynamotion Fit creates optimal fit with stretch material in the forefoot and a collar construction that prevents the heel collar from buckling under load.
- Strobel Last with the upper stitched to full length fabric for a comfortable underfoot feel.
OUTSOLE
- X10 located in the heel and forefoot is made of durable carbon rubber for enhanced traction.
- G3 Sole is a lightweight rubber dot pattern in the forefoot for increased grip and flexibility.
