The Mizuno Wave Legend is one of those sagas of Running shoes that do not have so much name, but that do not go unnoticed by a large group of runners with neutral footstep. It is a safe bet as a daily training model and for running at slow paces, above 4:30 or 5:00 per kilometer.

In the third version of the Wave Legend, many of the exclusive technologies of the Japanese brand, present in its previous model, the Wave Legend Wave Legend 2, are maintained. The midsole includes the EL8 material, which is 10% lighter than the AP+, but still retains the cushioning performance and even increases the energy return. The idea behind it is to enjoy an efficient and smooth ride. It also has a Wave system running parallel to the medial side for stability and durability.

The outsole is still dominated by the X10 compound, the Japanese brand's toughest and most durable solid rubber. Placed in the areas of greatest wear, this system enhances traction as well as the shoe's lifespan.

New features in the upper

All in all, the most striking changes in the Mizuno Wave Legend 3 refer to its new upper and the reinforcement of the heel area. While the upper incorporates a new Airmesh mesh to improve the fit and breathability of the model, which is also reinforced with Dynamotion Fit technology, Mizuno has chosen to introduce an extra SR Touch cushioning material in the rearfoot to improve the boost phase.

The drop the Mizuno Wave Legend 3 remains at 11 millimeters, and its weight is slightly reduced, remaining at 305 grams in the men's version, and 265 grams in the women's model.

With all these, the neutral runner, weighing up to 80 kilos, will have in the Mizuno Wave Legend 3 a model that guarantees stability, cushioning and correct and safe tread.
