Mizuno Wave Rider GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes
Dedicated runners who head out no matter the weather will love this Wave Rider GORE-TEX running shoe that offers comfort on both sunny and rainy days.
GORE-TEX Upper
The Wave Rider GORE-TEX has been designed with the worst weather conditions in mind, helping you stay protected from the start of your run to the end of it, no matter the climate. The shoe features a GORE-TEX mesh upper designed to deal with the most testing conditions. This membrane works to keep feet dry and ensure breathability. GORE-TEX membranes are made of billions of microscopic pores, smaller than a particle of water but bigger than a particle of moisture. This results in a highly breathable waterproof layer by allowing excess heat and moisture to leave the shoe leaving your foot cool, dry and comfortable. The upper also features Mizuno's AirMesh, along with being highly durable this is also breathable, the fabric allows air to flow through and circulate, whilst allowing hot air to escape, providing your feet with the perfect microclimate.
U4icX and Mizuno Wave Midsole
The Wave Rider GORE-TEX features maximum cushioning and comfort due to a U4icX bottom midsole. This light, evolutionary midsole absorbs impact and gives a higher rebound, thus fulfilling the most comfortable, energised run possible. Running feels luxurious and smooth due to Mizuno Enerzy cushioning, the compound provides high energy return keeping you feeling fresh mile after mile. This midsole and cushioning work alongside the GORE-TEX fabric to ensure the most comfortable fit and feel during the worst weather conditions. The shoe has a precise, comfortable fit with freedom of movement. This has been inspired by Mizuno's iconic Wave technology, backed by decades of being a leading manufacturer of running shoes. This technology works to disperse impact away from the foot and give stability on any terrain, meaning a high level of performance can be combined with a pain-free and comfortable feel. This is combined with Mizuno Dynamotion Fit, based on anatomical research to create patterns that give improved garment fit and full freedom of movement. The Wave Rider GORE-TEX also boasts a high-grade removable in-sock that provides premium comfort, cushioning and durability.
WGrip Rubber Outsole
Durability and traction arrive in the form of a WGrip outsole. WGrip provides superior grip and traction compared to regular rubber, keeping you confident on the trails ahead. Additionally, the shoes have an outsole pattern adapted for unpaved surfaces providing excellent grip on varying surfaces. Mizuno integrates their SmoothRide technology to minimise the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot during transition, creating the smoothest ride possible. SmoothRide begins working when your foot touches the ground; flex grooves adorn the outsole to promote natural movement from the heel to the forefoot. The Wave Rider is designed to be perfect for light trail and road running, as a result, the outsole has been specifically designed to match this. Deeper lugs also feature to ensure maximum traction on varied terrain so you can go from the city streets to tough trails.
