4.5/5
Overall Rating

The Mizuno Wave Sky 7 combines maximum cushioning with Mizuno's Wave plate technology. After 200 miles, here's how this unique max-cushioned trainer performs.

Enerzy and Wave

The combination of maximum Enerzy foam and Wave plate creates a unique ride – soft cushioning with mechanical support. It's plush yet stable in a way pure foam shoes can't match.

Smooth and Stable

The Wave plate provides consistent support throughout the gait cycle. Combined with thick Enerzy foam, the ride is both cushioned and confidence-inspiring.

Long Run Comfort

These excel on long runs where the cushioning reduces fatigue. The Wave plate adds just enough firmness to prevent the mushy feeling of some max-cushioned shoes.

Premium Construction

Mizuno's build quality is evident. After 200 miles, these feel nearly new. Expect 400+ mile lifespan from this well-constructed trainer.

Pros

  • Unique Wave plate stability
  • Maximum Enerzy cushioning
  • Excellent for long runs
  • Outstanding build quality
  • Smooth, stable ride

Cons

  • Heavy at 11oz
