Mizuno Wave Rider 28

The Mizuno Wave Rider 28 keeps the Wave Rider’s classic, reliable personality but adds a smoother, more energetic feel for modern daily training. Built for neutral runners who like a stable, guided transition without a controlling ride, it pairs a lively ENERZY-based platform with a softer ENERZY NXT heel wedge to take the edge off landings and help you roll forward naturally. A breathable Jacquard Air Mesh upper locks in comfortably for everyday miles, while the signature Wave Plate brings structure and snap when you pick up the pace.
