Mizuno is one of the most prominent brands in the market and with a wide range of running shoes for all types of runner profiles, from which the Wave Rebellion saga is a highlight. Designed for the fastest.
There are many runners who set the goal of running a marathon under 3 hours for themselves, which is not an easy task. In addition to a good physical, mental and nutritional preparation, you need to equip yourself with a fast shoe to help you meet your goal.
The Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro is one of the fastest and highest performance running shoes from Mizuno that has nothing to envy from other fast models from other leading brands such as Nike, adidas or ASICS, among others.
Saga Wave Rebellion, the fastest of the brand
Three shoes are part of the Wave Rebellion saga, which is designed for the most demanding and fastest runners in the pack who need high-performance shoes to achieve their goals.
In addition to the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro, the saga is completed by two shoes that also incorporate Wave technology and that adapt to different runner profiles, we show them briefly below. In RUNNEA we have made a complete comparison between them that you can read in the article,"Comparing Mizuno running shoes: Mizuno Wave Rebellion Sonic vs Mizuno Wave Rebellion Flash".
Mizuno Wave Rebellion Flash
It is the shoe in the line that is designed for lightweight runners with a good running technique and comes with a fiberglass plate in the midsole.
It is a shoe that stands out for its excellent combination of lightness and reactivity to run at fast paces without losing the comfort and softness necessary to run in competitions at fast paces in medium distances.
Mizuno Wave Rebellion Sonic
We are facing the mixed shoe par excellence of the line that, despite not incorporating a plate, is also a fast shoe thanks to the combination of Mizuno Enerzy and Wave in its midsole which guarantees good shock absorption and energy return.
It is a shoe aimed at runners of lighter weight and neutral step, which will make the most of it in training and competitions of short and medium distances.

Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro, the top of the line
Undoubtedly, the most outstanding shoe in the range is the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro, a high-performance shoe designed to provide the maximum possible reactivity in our competitions and that will require a great running technique to squeeze the most out of all its features.
It is a shoe that stands out for different reasons, among which we highlight its lightness, weighing only 218 grams, and its geometry, which does not go unnoticed and gives us a great reactivity and high profiles (39 mm - 35 mm) with a drop of 4 millimeters, ideal for running fast in competitions.
The shoe that we use to go under 3 hours in a marathon should not stand out for a single aspect, but should be a complete shoe that brings together great materials and technologies throughout its set, we analyze below in more detail the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro.
Upper part
The upper part of the shoe has an elastic mesh that favors a perfect fit of the foot inside the shoe, in addition to highlighting its great breathability and lightness and a classic tongue that provides that extra comfort and fit to prevent foot movement.
The shoe has a slightly harder material in the heel area with a comfortable inner padding to provide that support and stability needed to run fast in our competitions.
Finally, we highlight that many of the materials used in the upper part of the shoe are recycled, thus contributing to sustainability and improvement in the design and manufacturing processes of the shoe.
Midsole
The midsole is the area of the shoe that brings together most of the brand's high-performance technologies. It has a carbon plate with hexagonal shapes in the center to improve its resistance and reactivity. The carbon plate is composed of 30% carbon and 70% nylon.
The Mizuno Enerzy Lite technology could not be missing here, a technology designed to offer great reactivity and cushioning that every racing shoe needs. The combination of Mizuno Enerzy Lite technology and the Smooth Speed Assist system increases the reactivity that makes the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro one of the fastest shoes on the market today.
Outsole
If you want to go under 3 hours in a marathon you need a shoe with a sole that provides the necessary grip, but not excessive, that allows us a great reactivity in each of our strides.
The outsole of the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro has the G3 compound, developed by the same brand and designed with small studs in the areas of greatest contact with the surface to provide firmness and durability.
