Mizuno Wave Precision 13 Running Shoes

Mizuno Wave Precision 13 wins the top award as Runner’s World Editors Choice in the Fall 2012 Issue (September 2012).  Designed to be faster, smoother, lighter, the Wave Precision 13 delivers a bouncy feel to propel you on your way. It’s the lightest precision ever made, proving less can be a lot more. We’re looking forward for the Mizuno Wave Precision 14 release.

The Precision 13 is a moderate feature, moderate neutral shoe designed for speedwork, racing and daily training. It is built with a semi-curved shape.

Mizuno Wave Precision 13 Features

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

• AP+ is Mizuno’s top of the line full-length copolymer midsole for a lighter, more 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.
• Extended Wave Plate in the midfoot is an extension of the Mizuno Wave for increased torsional rigidity between the heel and forefoot.

UPPER

• AIRmesh covers the entire upper and provides breathability to keep the foot cool.
• OrthoLite Sockliner is anti-microbial and moisture wicking for a healthy foot environment.
• Dynamotion Fit creates optimal fit with stretch material in the forefoot and a collar construction that prevents the heel collar from buckling under load.

OUTSOLE

• X10 located in the heel and forefoot is made of durable carbon rubber for enhanced traction.

Mizuno Wave Precision 13 Reviews

Wear-testers from Runner’s World finds the shoe to be versatile and capable of handling faster workouts and races.  But some testers accustomed to more minimal footwear or racing flats found it to sit too high, especially at the heel since the heel-to-toe drop is at 14.4mm.
