    Hi, so do you recommend taking a size smaller, which corresponds to 1 cm less? I wear US 9.5 (8,5 UK/27.5 CM) for all other shoes, what size do you recommend? 8,5 UK (27,5 CM) or 8 UK (27 CM)? Thank you
    PS: I have narrow feet

      I use Swiftwick socks, almost exclusively, and I highly recommend them. (I’m not an affiliate so I don’t get anything if you buy them). Unfortunately I don’t use compression gear or have any recommendations on the best shirts to use because I only use what I have (and haven’t tried too many options).

    The price point on running shoes - like so many other things these days - has climbed too aggressively. I started running in earnest just four years ago - my first shoes, NB 880, retailed less than half the price of these new Mizunos. And $$$ is a problem across nearly all running shoe brands.
    Certainly there is an early-adopter premium for new tech, but these need to last 600+ miles and compare favorably to their market peers (pick your favorite).

    • @its_Matt_B_

      Yes, I had to go down a whole size in this shoe and in the Wave Neo Wind (released at the same time). I recommend you go down at least half a size from what you usually wear. BTW, I have other Mizuno shoes and they fit normally. It is only this (and the other mentioned above) that fit a little long!

      @@rualablhor Mizuno are quite big in Asia and South America in terms of running shoes. But it should be pointed out that Mizuno is not a running company. As in I mean that's not their background.and how they became famous.
      Running is Asics's background and certainly what they are very famous for. So it makes sense why you see Asics that way
      Mizuno by contrast is famous as a general sports brand (though their background is in baseball). They are big in a whole range of sports. It's a big brand in golf ⛳ (many people consider their clubs to be the best mainstream ones). It's huge in volleyball 🏐 and they sponsor many national teams. Their rugby boots are quite popular 🏉, and their football ⚽ boots are considered among the best (and are also expensive). They are also in swimming 🥽, badminton 🏸 etc ....
      Running is more of a side thing for them.
