Thanks for the heads up. Better snap up some Wave Prophecy before they stop shipping them here. Damn Mizuno.
Bah, can never get size 10-11.5 on sale.
This seems standard sale price if you check ebay http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=281639962896&al… this listing has your size for the above poster but will ship from uk so will take longer
i think wiggle also ship from UK….
basically most sports shoes are cheaper buying from UK… not sure why.
But are they made in Japan like my eneloops?
this one not good for flat feet i think
That's right, these are a neutral shoe:
http://www.shoeregister.com/wiki/Mizuno_Wave_Hitogami_2_(Mens)_(2015)They would suit someone with medium/high arches who doesn't need the additional stability.
So am I right, for people with flat feet we need stability type shoes? Not cushioning
Most likely you will need stability shoes. However, the cushioning part is irrelevant.
There are many different neutral and stability shoes on the market, so there are lots of different levels of cushioning.
So while you may need to rule out any shoes that are "neutral", don't just rule out anything that talks about cushioning.
How would these compare to say ASICS Men's Gel-Noosa Tri 10 for running exercise ect
The Noosa Tri is a stability shoe, whereas this is a neutral shoe. The other aspects (weight, heel-toe drop) are pretty similar.
Stability shoes are for those with "over pronation".
You may be in a case of not having a pronation issue but are wearing the stability shoes anyway :)
Overall the Mizuno Wave Hitogami shoes are really highly rates amongst runners.
Apparently Mizuno wants wiggle to stop selling Mizuno products to Australia.
Probably protecting the Aust supplier whoever that is.
Like Garmin products and a slew of others.
So if you think that is a bad idea, you can tell them via the link below.
