Over the years I’d retired maybe a dozen pairs of Mizunos with the wave plate and x10 outsole, but moved on to softer shoes. And now there’s this one, I guess I’ll have to look at it now. Very glad Mizuno is getting attention, I never had a quality issue with any of the pairs I wore out.
I have the black / white one. I am a heel striker and slow runner but the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro is amazing. I never have any aches or pain after the run.. People do tend to look in amazement.. A true Supershoes. By the way.. Impossible to walk in them 😎
Well, Edd, I hate to say I told you so, but....😊 I've been banging the drum on this epic shoe since day one and I just PR'd my fall marathon in them. They're arguably my favorite running shoe in the nine years that I've been running and I've tried nearly all of the super shoes in this time. I'm very happy that you finally got your feet in them and that you like them as much as you do! 🎉
Trying to find where you "told him so". Don't see that anywhere. Usually that told you so, claim means telling someone about something or someone, making a claim and coming back later to remind the other person about what was previously said. Maybe some guilt, more of the "I was right and you were wrong" thing.Maybe you shouted praises with your homies but that has nothing to do with Ed or anyone else here.
I had an overwhelming positive experience in my pair earlier in the year too when I first used them. I had low expectations because of the lack of love and interest the shoe seemed to be receiving. But wow, this shoe along with the Saucony Endorphin Elite were 2 race shoes that were winners in my eyes and ones I'll continue using. Looking forward to testing Mizuno's version 2 of the shoe. Already available in Australia but a bit too expensive for my budget at AUD$360. Maybe next year if I can pick up a pair on discount. Excellent review Edd.
For me too, Elite to race in, backed up by two pairs of the Wave Rebellion Pro and the Endorphin Pro 3 for training. Not seen the v2 yet. I will have to go for a search. One for you to look out for dependent on size and availability in Australia is the 361 Furious Future. Looks like an interesting shoe which has only just been released in China and the US so far. I think that I saw someone who has reviewed them comparing as a cross between the Endorphin Elite and Alphafly v1. Could be some cheap deals on a very good shoe available in 6 to 12 months if they aren't selling well.
I did buy these after watching your video. Parkrun PB done, Thursday night group run PB done. Bought a pair for my daughter as well. 80kms in and they feel better
Absolutely great stuff! So glad you got round to this and love them...I do. I managed a PB back in April at the Newport 10k and find them very comfortable though walking around in them is perhaps the closest I'll get to wearing high heels! The traction is absolutely top notch and can't wait for numero 2. Great review! And unlucky for the Glovers...I used to go every week back in the mid 80s.
Fantastic that Mizuno is getting some love too. It´s a bit underrated in general. They should offer wide versions of their supershoes so that Hobbits, like myself, could enjoy them too.
Edd I’ve done about 260 miles in the black and white model and it’s been nothing short of phenomenal! Fast pace when you want it and when you land on the middle of the midsole the pop off is fantastic..a soft ride with a lot of speedy pop..and literally no signs of wear at all! Amazing shoe
Same for me 👍 with 294 miles on the original black and white model which are still going strong 🙂 I also have approx 30 miles on this colourway. Great long run shoes which really strengthen your legs while giving them some protection. Very under-rated shoes.
I am glad you finally got to test this one. That colorway looks fantastic! I did run in a pair of demo shoes of this version (WRP1) last summer and during the TRE-2023 in Austin I tested WRP2 in a Mizuno running event. I think ride wise WRP2 is smoother, better bounce and energy return. It felt like it lost some weight. I also liked that they eliminated the medial cutout in the foam and that grippy outsole through everywhere the shoe makes contact with ground. That stabilizes the shoe a bit more. Yes, there is still a chance of rocks getting stuck, but this is really designed for road racing. My only complaint is that in their quest to reduce weight Mizuno eliminated the minimal heel counter and during my demo run I felt a bit of heel slip. I think using extra holes with a runner's loop lacking might have fixed that.
When I saw you running these on Strava, I waited impatiently for your review. Great review. Mizuno had the ability to dip their toes in the super shoe market; I had wondered what took them so long; looks like they wanted to be sure a drop a ringer. Hopefully the wife says yes to this one after many years running Mizuno!
Great to see you enjoy the Mizuno pro..it is my favorite 10k racer and my PB 10k this year..I'm working to get off my forefoot strike and the pro is helping..😊
Thank you for the review, you just made my buy a pair. I was on a fence as I already have too many carbon racers but the comparison to Prime X2 (my favourite shoe of this year) reassured me it is worth a try. I know 2 is already out in some places but some of the changes sound like they may not work for me (less heel lock is often an issue).
Love this shoe, I got to test a demo pair this year and got along really well with it. The only part I didn't like was the middle cutout under the arch, but it seems they fixed that in v2 for 2024!
So glad you finally got to try it 😃 I’ve been trying to persuade you to pick this one up in the comments all year 🤣 I Absolutely love this shoe and it feels like my fastest race shoe although I think I’m a tad faster in vaporfly 3 but it dame close and it’s the only other racing shoe other then then alphafly 1 I’d actually pick to race in Wave rebellion pro and vaporfly 3 have definitely been my shoes of year!!! Best shoes of 23 All my daily trainers in my rotation are last years models I think it’s been a rubbish year in general for daily’s trainers.. although there are some gems 💎
@@EDDBUDgood for you! I had to return a kakizome pair, and half size above was sold out! So I got the rainbow color instead that actually fits well here in Hawaii🤙🏾
I was really hoping that this one would be a flop. I've already spent too many pennies on running shoes this year, and now you've got me wanting to reach for the old chequebook once again.
Finally, welcome on board, Captain. Rebellion Pro is unique, a very sophisticated masterpiece. I have the black and white version and I believe this shoe is second to none.
Edd i just ordered a pair $135 earth dollars. I'll give it a shot. Was considering a second discounted Saucony Triumph 20. I believe i will still pick up the 20's possibly at a later time. Current pair has about 17 miles so no rush but huge fan. I have so many shoes i can wait for discounts. Some new ones certainly have my attention cielo 1x and Alphafly 3. Thanks for what you do mate.
Have the black and white ones bought at launch and been injured ever since. This makes me sad and happy at the same time. Sometimes i just put them on as the fit is just so damn comfy, so totally with you on the upper. Now just need to wait and find out about the ride ...
I oddly found my way to Mizuno through their sustainable Wave Neo Wind and haven't looked back! Would have loved to run in this but the midfoot cutout left me very concerned 😂 very excited about the changes to the Wave Rebellion Pro in V2 (no midfoot cutout) and also the wave rebellion flash 2
I knew that you would love them Edd 👍 I have two pairs - this colourway with under 30 miles on, but also the original black and white version with 294 miles on and still going strong (so nothing major to fear on durability). I haven't really raced in them (just 1 x 10k) as with the Endorphin Elite available the WRP doesn't really get a look in. The Wave Rebellion Pro are great training shoes though (especially for some of your long runs on tired legs). Why I find them so good in training is that they take pressure away from my calf muscles (which my other shoes tend to work more) and build strength in my quads, glutes and hips which has been an added benefit 🙂 I paid £160 for both of my pairs which is an absolute steal. They are currently available for just £125 in some sizes 😮
Looks cool. With 7 Puma shoes, the Mrs. seems to believe that's enough shoes for me for the moment, or I would buy and try. Like the design and colorway. She's flying back to Canada soon for a 3 week visit, so I might sneak this one in. 😎 On another note, we had 45 cm of snow yesterday here in Munich. Maybe, I will wait until Spring. Thanks for the great review!
Prime X but lighter? That'll do nicely. Wish I'd been a good boy now - I'll have to use my own earth credits. Took your time to do em, but the word of Ed is gd enough for me.

It's been proven that certain colors can raise your heart rate and make people more optimistic about a competition. The color of this shoe gives off vibes of the Ethiopian flag.🇪🇹 Therefore, I don't think it's a stretch that these shoes could make you channel the running form of an Ethiopian marathoner. If you factor that into the final score, it comes to a final score of 12/12.
@@EDDBUD Thank you. RIP Shane McGowan and Kirsty MacColl. I just read where Shane Macgowan was born on Christmas Day. Kirsty MacColl lost her life saving her son's life. So tragic!
Blue and bright yellow are not colours i typically like as a combination. I thought the Sauconys that came out in those colours earlier this year looked 🤮🤮. But somehow Mizuno makes the colours work on this design. It actually genuinely looks good 😊😊😊
Is the upper stretchy Ed? I’ve had issues this year with forefoot issues (metatarsal heads) and I’ve been diagnosed with a Morton’s Neuroma. Thankfully I can’t feel the Morton’s at all. So I’m heading towards wide fitting and stretchy uppers. I’ve found Adidas for example have no give at all. Whereas my New Balance Supercomp stretch around my foot which is great. Great review BTW 👍🏻😊
Almost pulled the trigger on these but got cold feet when some reviews suggested it runs small. They dont seem to do a 12.5 so I didnt bother. Now wishing I'd have gone with the 12 😂

I had mine for close to six months before I actually took it out of the box . One mile in 'well this is strange' then it was a 'Oh my' ,in my best George Takia impression. 🙂
Is that the highest score ever Edd? They intrigue me. I really loved the black and white colourway. But first I have to wear out my Alphafly v1 that gave me another PB on the Valencia marathon last Sunday.
I’ve never seen any clips that suggest you’d have a stability issue but the slow mo clip in this video made the shoe look incredibly unstable (in my limited knowledge opinion of course!)
Tested today at the running track, I'm now uploading the video. This is a very strange pair of super shoes. Even though the Nike Alphafly have a gradient of weirdness, the Wave Rebellion Pro are furthermore strange (and, regrettably, slow). I was expecting to be Coil-Man (yes, I'm that old) and instead I was a slow coach. Even a pair of new daily trainers (aka Saucony Ride) can go faster than these shoes.
Fantastic shoe but had to sell mine as they kept taking the skin off two of the toes on my right foot and I tried everything, seriously disappointed in my toes! 😥
@@EDDBUD I wore them for a half marathon and did a fantastic time of 1:21.....personally the best running shoe for those distances and I'd say even better than any nike options 🙊 best shoe I've bought this year, absolute bargain of a shoe
@@EDDBUD but cars widely last 250,000 miles instead of 250 miles the trainers last they last 1000 times longer then a pair of trainers so to do 250,000 miles in trainers will cost over £250,000 that could buy you a nice house very costly running in these super shoes that only make you 10 seconds faster for every mile lmao 🤣

@@EDDBUD such is life, thankfully the Hoka Rocket X2 are taking away some of the pain and I was late to them like you are with the Mizuno
@@TheHutchRuns The rockets are a good alternative.
The shoe matches your cap.
Spot on!
Hello bud.. 1 and 2 reduced sportshoe..which one u think thanks buddy
Was tempted by the v2. The v1 is good though apparently the v2 is an apparently lower drop.
@@EDDBUD thanks buddy..I love the colour of the 1
@@EDDBUD 125 is a bargain
Is it TTS? Everyone seems to say go up half size
Nah felt great true to size to me
Is it a pure race shoe or can you use it for easy recovery like Superblast as well?
I haven’t had issue at any pace.
Hi Ed is this just as fun as the Adios pro 3 for a half marathon?
More fun in my estimations
I’ll have to try them just had a discount splurge on some prime x and metaspeed sky plus thanks Ed Merry Xmas to you and your family 👍😀
Please tell me they come in other colorways
Yes they do
Yo.
🥇
How is the Pro 2?
The 2? Have only just seen images of that
Are you getting v2?
Yes but need to offload some shoes first!
@@EDDBUD I'm size 9 but thanks anyway
Would you wear them for a marathon?
Yes absolutely
@@EDDBUD I wore them for a half marathon and did a fantastic time of 1:21.....personally the best running shoe for those distances and I'd say even better than any nike options 🙊 best shoe I've bought this year, absolute bargain of a shoe
Yo

GARDEN CENTRE 😂😂😂
If you only get 200 to 300 miles out of these then it cost around £1 a mile to run in these its 5 times cheaper to drive a car
Cars are wildly expensive these days
@@EDDBUD but cars widely last 250,000 miles instead of 250 miles the trainers last they last 1000 times longer then a pair of trainers so to do 250,000 miles in trainers will cost over £250,000 that could buy you a nice house very costly running in these super shoes that only make you 10 seconds faster for every mile lmao 🤣
@@EDDBUD as expensive as they are they are very cool that’s why I got 4 pairs coming to my house today including these mizuno wave rebellion pros
Easily the most unesthetic shoe i’ve seen in my youthful existance. They should pay me for wearing it, Barbie goes orthopedic kind of vibe. 😊
You’re missing out.
Think of the rainbow. 😉
@@davidlynch9049 Still don’t follow?!
I have this same colorway and imo it's one of the best looking supershoes!
It’s the best color way I’ve ever seen
Love them, very fast, however they give me hamstring problems.
How are you enjoying the sub-zero temps here in the UK? ❄️ 🧊
Thanks, Edd.
Quick leap to 10c here in 1 day. Madness.
Not in UK but ran at +21deg C on Saturday, -1 deg C on Sunday. Madness.@@EDDBUD
