Comments about Womens Mizuno Wave Paradox Running Shoe:

So happy to find these shoes! I have worn the Mizuno Wave Inspires until the new 10's and couldn't get used to the changes made to the 10. This is slightly heavier, but feels really well cushioned. A good work horse of a shoe!

I recently had ankle reconstruction and have a plate, 5 screws and 3 wires to hold my ankle together. After finally rehabbing enough to begin running again I needed a shoe with a little more stability. I used to run in wave creations and absolutely love them but the wave paradox has not disappointed! With the need for a little more stability this shoe is still light weight and allows room for my custom orthodics as well. I would definitely buy another pair of these!

I honestly have been on this annoying mission to find the right shoe since the New balance 1011 was discontinued. That shoe had the right about to support and cushion. I have been through Brooks, Asics, you name it. I bought a couple and will be be returning them. My knees dont hurt. This shoe is by far my shoe. So I will be making more then one puchase in returing the other ones that do not serve me that unconditional cloud nine support. I love this shoe so much. I plan on buying as much before they run out. End of Story!!!! i've been through my luck of injuries. This is my My shoe and i'm so happy i found you.

I initially had the Wave Inspire 10, but my foot didn't like all of the new changes to the latest model, so it was suggested I try to Paradox. Both the new Inspire and the Paradox are significantly narrower (even the Wide width, which I bought in both). I took out the liner in my Wave Inspire 9s, and they're wider than the Paradox and the Inspire 10. Both caused hot spots on my arch on short runs, so both had to be sent back. The Paradox seemed heavy (when compared to the Inspire), was stiffer, and there's not a lot of height to the toe box, so if you have toes that curl up a little (or fatter toes, like I do), they'll rub the top of the shoe. I don't know why Mizuno decided to change its entire lineup of shoes this year, but I think these changes mean I'll be switching to Brooks or Saucony since their wides are actually wide.

After years in the Alchemy, I switched to the Paradox with some hesitation--a new model is always a bit of a risk. My foot is wider than average, but not always a "wide," and I pronate heavily on the right and moderately on the left. Based on other reviews, I chose the wide width (which was necessary), and I added green SuperFeet, matching past practice with the Alchemy. The Paradox is very stiff; I probably could have used blue inserts and been happy. That stiffness made them feel a little heavy, even though they are lighter than the Alchemys. Pronation control is as good as or better than the Alchemys. Other reviewers noted that the shoe eased up some with use, but I haven't found that yet. Maybe with more miles. Overall a good replacement for someone who needs plenty of stability.

Needed shoes to control over-pronation and was sent to a specialist who put me in a different brand. Hated them! So I went online and found RoadRunner Sports. They found the perfect shoe for me and at a much better price! Will be recommending all my track kids come to this website!

I wear the paradox for training for half marathon. Distances not overly long, not exceeding 13 .1 miles.

I ran 10 miles on treadmill the first day with this sneaker and felt fantastic - It provides support but is lightweight and very comfortable

I have always ran in the Nirvana and it was
discontinued so I went to the paradox. It took
time to get accustomed to such a change but I
really like it now because it is lighter.
The fit is good for me and it is comfortable.
I run three days a week with a group and do lots of races. The only negative is that my
feet are more sore with these (feels less cushiony)than Nirvana. I have only worn
Mizunos for 8 years now..still the shoe for me!

I am usually not a Mizuno fan because I need cushion under the ball of my feet. These have it. They were narrow so I returned and orderes a wide. So far so good!

Comments about Womens Mizuno Wave Paradox Running Shoe:

Loved my Alchemy Mizuno which are no longer made so tried the Paradox, their replacement. No problem with my plantar fasciitis, but to much pressure on the bunions. The toe box is not roomy enough and could not even wiggle the toes. Sending them back and will try another style in the Mizuno.

I am training for a marathon, 25+ miles x week.... I use always regular width, these ones felt too tight, think I'll try them on W width... Also they are little rigid, lack of movement as you run !
