The Mizuno Wave Rider has been around for 25 years! In honour of this milestone, Mizuno released this exclusive model. The 25th edition still uses the Mizuno Wave Plate that makes the running shoe suitable for both short and long distances.
The Mizuno Wave Rider 25 is a light and dynamic shoe. Light because the sole of the Mizuno Wave Rider 25 consists entirely of Mizuno Enerzy material which is 17% softer and 15% more responsive than the previous model. This isn’t te only thing that makes the running shoe more dynamic. The Wave plate in the midsole of the shoes (already used in the first version of the model) provides a stable landing and extra spring during the toe-off.
The Mizuno Wave Plate consists of two soft materials that are placed on top of each other in the shape of a wave.
Mizuno Enerzy material has been processed in the sole underneath the wave plate and ensures a lot of energy return.
Over the years a lot has changed about the Mizuno Wave Rider. In 1997, Mizuno developed the plate they called the Wave plate. This new technology merged cushioning and stability. Since then, this material has become a lot lighter. The video shows all 25 Mizuno Wave Rider versions; from the first Mizuno Wave Rider all the way to this 25th edition.

The Wave Plate is lighter, but also reinforced on the inside so that you experience more stability. In addition, the platform under the forefoot has been slightly widened, which also provides more stability. This Wave Rider 25 lasts longer than its predecessor because the outsole has been made 1 mm thicker. X10 carbon is processed in the outsole of the heel, which provides more wear resistance. With the Mizuno Wave Rider 25 you’ll have the world at your feet.
