3.0 out of 5 stars Agree - very stiff for running, but makes for good trainers, October 18, 2008

By	M. Evans (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews

I bought these to back up a pair of well-cushioned (but well-worn) Asics Gel Kinetics. Running in these Mizunos is like running in track spikes - that nifty wave design gives me virtually no heel cushioning. On the plus side, the toe box is not as unnecessarily "tall" as those on the Asics. The Asics are like running on pillows by comparison. All is not lost, though. I found that these Mizunos have a far better grip on surfaces (e.g., keeping my feet from sliding when doing planks or stability exercises), so they're now my gym trainers. Maybe I'm not heavy enough to compress the heels. I'm 130 lbs, and the shoes might be designed for a heavier runner. Too bad, I was hoping to have another pair of running shoes. I was swayed by a stellar review from a friend, but she may never have tried running in Asics!

1.0 out of 5 stars stiff run, May 29, 2008

By	sindie secosky "Sindie" (Deployed, Iraq) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am avid runner and decided to try this shoe after a friend recommended it. On my first run, the shoes felt very stiff like I was running on cement. Even after a few weeks of running, they never broke in. There is no give in the heels which made my legs tire quickly. I run about 5 days a week, 8 miles a day. I finally threw these shoes away and went back to my Asics!!! Usually new running shoes feel like you are running on clouds....these DID NOT feel like that at all. I do not recommend these shoes.

1.0 out of 5 stars if you have narrow feet look elsewhere, May 19, 2009

By	avid reader "MLH" - See all my reviews

I liked the wave creation 8 because I have narrow feet and higher arches. The Wave Creation 9 has an open slit seam by the outside ankle area instead of a stiched seam. Inside the shoe is a weird elastic band to hold it together. The end result is the shoe is much less structured and more open and looser than WC8 version. If you have narrow feet to begin with, this makes the shoe wider. I was very disappointed this new design feature was not mentioned in the shoe description.
