What is wrong with Mizuno these days with horrible updates? Mizuno destroyed the Rider with Version 10 with its disgustingly large cavernous toebox and flat arch that caters to the masses of people with large, wide, feet. The Rider 11 is slightly more snug than the 10, but still fits HUGE compared...

Been looking for a replacement for the unbelievably good Wave Rider (WR) 9. The WR9 fits my narrow foot perfectly, and has the ideal amount of cushioning and support. But man, the WR9 has a super short life span. I have a string bean physique at 5'10", 138 pounds with a light midfoot strike, but ...

The Rider 11 is very well reviewed by all the running mags this year, so I decided to try this shoe and found that it works well. I'm a light runner, 5'6" 128 lbs. I wasn't sure if this shoe would provide enough cushioning for ultra training, but it seems to perform fine. No real issues during te...

these are great. i don't do much distance running, but the first day i got these, i went for a run and did almost double what i used to do in terms of mileage. extremely comfortable especially with the insole.

I loved the 10's and these are just as good. The cushioning is perfect for my frame 5'6" 180 and I really like the room in the toe box for my wide feet.

Unlike about half of the people that tried wr10s i loved the extra room. these shoes are snugger but no complants after 2 months of wear and tear. give them a little bit and they will grow on you.

Why can't Mizuno stop ruining good shoes!!! My foot was flopping everywhere. I downsized as much as i could and yet my foot was slipping all around the shoe. I felt like i was in a EE. Mizuno, go back to widthes so i can get that snug fit again

I have run in Creations for years and was looking for a lighter shoe and tried these and love em. I actually feel like I am being propelled forward by these shoes. So far so good I have done one long run and a few speed workouts with them, could not be happier.

Strange! I've been running the Wave Rider for about 6 years. Several marathons and thousands of training miles beneath the soles. Decided to upgrade to the Rider 11 (Size 11), under the guidance of the RRS rep. The Rider 11 (Size 11) was a full 1/2 inch longer. When I switched to the size 10.5,...

I think I've made a big mistake. I've been a New Balance 1061 guy and decided they were getting too pricey (especially when I add the SOLE brand inserts). I tried out the Rider yesterday and initially thought the heels felt very hard--like there were blocks under them. Well this morning I could b...

Same great shoe on the outside but with added comfort on the inside.

I am a long time Nike Air Pegasus fan. I decided to try these shoes out because I couldn't get any more 2006 Peg's and the 2007 models were terrible. I find the Wave Rider to be comfortable to run in, but I have had a problem with slippage in the heel. I have somewhat solved to problem with thicker ...

I have high arched square feet and the shoe fit is spot on. Amazing cushion and for a mid-foot striker, the toe off is responsive and smooth. If you have narrow feet, you'll feel like your feet are swimming in the toe box, but then i say try the Asics cumulus, the fit will be much better.

What is Mizuno trying to pull here. And RRS. Touted as a snugger shoe. Hogwash. Same wide as a boat feel as before. No change. and they even raised the price. I give up!

If you are a Rider fan..and have liked them except for the upper fit of the Rider 10..you will love these..fits better and performs like all the other Riders...great heel to toe,etc
