Mizuno Wave Sky 9 (W)

Textile: The textile upper of the sneakers is lightweight, breathable and comfortable, ideal for everyday wear and sports. It ensures air circulation, keeps feet fresh and adapts to their shape. Often complemented with synthetic or rubber details for durability and support.

Syntetika: The synthetic upper is made of synthetic materials that are lightweight, durable and easy to clean. It provides good protection against moisture and at the same time allows for a comfortable wearing experience.

Smooth Stretch Woven: Mizuno's premium outerwear that is designed for the perfect balance between support and flexibility. This fabric is characterised by its adaptive stretching ability: in the horizontal direction, the material stretches slightly to adapt to the anatomy and movement of the foot during the stride, while in the vertical direction it remains firm to keep the foot in the correct position. The result is an extremely smooth feel on the skin, high breathability and elimination of pressure. Due to its construction, it minimizes the deformation of the upper during running and ensures that the shoe sits stably even during prolonged exercise.

MIZUNO ENERZY: MIZUNO ENERZY technology is placed throughout the midsole and provides amazing cushioning and energy return.

MIZUNO WAVE: Mechanical midsole technology that effectively solves the basic running dilemma: how to combine high levels of cushioning with the necessary stability. While most manufacturers rely solely on foam materials, Mizuno uses a wave plate that disperses the impact energy of the pedal into the entire sole area. This construction acts as an elastic spring that absorbs shock and aids dynamic forward transition on rebound. In addition, thanks to its mechanical principle, the plate helps maintain the structural integrity of the shoe and the stability of the foot throughout the life of the shoe. Wave technology comes in a variety of shapes to provide either neutral stride guidance or targeted pronation support.

MIZUNO ENERZY NXT: It is a cutting-edge technology developed by Mizuno to improve athletic performance through superior energy return and cushioning. It represents a leap forward in sports science, providing a 293% increase in softness and a 56% increase in energy return compared to traditional midsole materials.

Rubber: The rubber sole is a traditional and highly reliable element in the construction of footwear, valued especially for its extreme mechanical resistance and grip. This contact layer is made of natural or synthetic rubber, which is characterized by its high density and elasticity. Due to its physical properties, it provides excellent traction on a wide range of surfaces, from smooth asphalt to unpaved terrain. In addition, the rubber is naturally waterproof and resistant to temperature fluctuations, ensuring stability and a secure stride in a variety of climatic conditions.

X10: Extremely durable carbon rubber (carbon rubber) compound strategically placed by Mizuno on the most stressed parts of the outsole, especially in the heel area. This technology was developed to maximize the life of the shoe in the areas where the most friction occurs during impact and rebound. The addition of carbon makes this rubber significantly harder and more resistant to mechanical wear than standard rubber compounds, allowing the shoe to maintain excellent traction even after hundreds of miles on abrasive surfaces such as asphalt or concrete.
