    Comments about Womens Mizuno Wave Ascend 8 Trail Running Shoe:

    I run nearly everyday. Approx 50-60 mpw. Pronate on my right foot. Will use neutral, support, lightweight and even minimal shoes. Depends on the day and/or run.
    Also have a very long (10-10.5 women's) and very narrow foot (AA). Basically a natural set of skis. Having said this, these shoes fit me well with thicker socks. If you have a wide foot, like most Mizunos, these may not be for you.
    Cons: can be heavy. Especially when wet. Can have a more firm ride yet does cushion impact from the ground well. Can tend to pull on my Achilles' tendon at times. Especially out of the box.

      Comments about Womens Mizuno Wave Ascend 8 Trail Running Shoe:

      I loved these shoes when I wore them the first few times but there was a hole that developed in the right toe after only 5 wears! Same thing happened to my friend who also has these shoes. I have been wearing Mizuno shoes for years, and they often develop holes in the toes--but not after five wears. Trail shoes should be durable and these are not...

          This is the best trail shoe I have had in years! I took them out of the box and ran 8 miles of trail and never even thought about them. I have not thought about them since I got them. That means they are PERFECT! No hot spots, just ready for fun!
