Disclaimer: I received a pair of Mizuno Wave Rider 18 to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review, find, and write race reviews!
About a month ago, I got these shoes to review! I was pretty excited. I’ve never actually bought Mizuno’s before but I’ve heard good things. I’ve experimented with 3 other brands before so this was exciting, running in Mizuno’s.
About the Shoe
It’s a lightweight, neutral running shoe for both men and women. These come in 4 different colors and I’m so happy I chose the purple and green! I wear a lot of purple so it goes with everything.
They are the average price of running shoes ($120) and if you haven’t worn Mizuno’s before, they have an awesome tool on their website, which compares your sizes in other brands to theirs. For example, I wear an 8.5 in Asics but the Mizuno tool said that I should wear a 9 in their shoes. (I ended up ordering an 8.5 and I’m glad I did. It’s the perfect fit.)

These may be the prettiest running shoes I’ve ever owned |
P.S. Join BibRave on Tuesday 5/26 for MIZUNO #BIBChat! The topic will be “Every Miles Changes You.” Mizuno will be giving away 3 pairs of wave rider 18s. @#mizunorunning#mileschangeyou
The great thing about running is that, technically, the only piece of equipment you'll need is a good pair of running shoes. However, choosing a good pair of running shoes can be difficult, especially with all the advertising, hype and “technology” that go into manufacturing them.I find this website for the Best Aerobics Shoes.
