3D Mesh Upper

Providing a natural fit and increased durability, the Wave Intense Tour 5 CC boasts a 3D Solid upper. Encasing your foot in breathable comfort the inner fabric of the Wave Exceed Tour 3 offers high levels of softness for maximum next-to-skin comfort. The highly breathable fabric allows cool air to circulate, removing uncomfortable heat build-up and humidity to maintain a cool, regulated temperature that feet can thrive in. The outside of the 3D Solid is incredibly durable, protecting against lateral drag and abrasion whilst delivering essential support and stability needed for fast, dynamic movement. Working with the traditional lace closure, the 3D Soft delivers a secure, locked-down fit and feel around the midfoot to keep you stable and support for maximum speed and agility.

Wave Midsole

Mizuno's wave technology is embedded into the midsole to provide flexibility in one direction and support in the other. The midsole technology works to absorb the shock of heel striking without compromising the comfort or cushioning. Once the shock has been absorbed the energy from that is harnessed and is then transferred to the forefoot to then push you off and guide you onto the next movement. Providing extra cushioning in the rearfoot the wave technology spares joints when striking down on hard, unforgiving surfaces and keeps the ankle in the right position for increased stability and support during fast, dynamic movement. Dual-density ap+ is a lightweight midsole compound that offers a high rebound, exceptional durability and a high level of cushioning to ensure optimum comfort at all times. The ap+ ensures increased stability on the lateral side and powerful cushioning and shock absorption in the centre and rearfoot. U4ci X resides within the midsole working to deliver stress-free cushioned rides with high rebounds for an energised, responsive movement and superb comfort. U4ic X further absorbs impact for smooth, efficient transitions. A premium removable insole provides high-grade comfort and cushioning and a customisable fit.

X10 Outsole

The outsole is made with X10 which is the most durable carbon rubber that allows for longer wear in high impact areas and supplements traction at heel strike. This helps to lessen the impact placed on the knees and joints, allowing for a more comfortable ride as well as optimising gait efficiency. The outsole also ensures maximum grip and traction for a firm, assured footing so you can run with confidence and push yourself to the limit, time and time again. An increased outsole provides more ground contact for enhanced slide control and lateral stability. The clay Court outsole, especially recommended for clay court to maximize slides.
