FAQs
Do these trainers offer good arch support?
The Mizuno Wave Prophecy LS features an Infinity Wave midsole designed for stability, and includes a removable insole. For specific arch support needs, consider adding custom orthotics.
Are these suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are optimized for lightweight cushioning and stable everyday performance. While comfortable for general wear, they are not specifically designed for the high-impact demands of marathon running.
What is the main advantage of the Infinity Wave technology?
The Infinity Wave technology in these trainers provides enhanced cushioning and stability by distributing shock more evenly across the midsole, offering a smoother and more responsive ride.
How should I clean the mesh and leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the mesh and leather. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to prevent damage to the materials.
Can I wear these with thick socks?
Given that the fit may run slightly small, wearing very thick socks might make the shoes feel tighter. If you prefer to wear thick socks, consider sizing up.
What is the weight of a single shoe?
A single shoe weighs approximately 400g for a size 27.0cm.
Is the midfoot cage made of rubber?
The description mentions a 'moulded texture midfoot cage,' which provides support. It is typically made from durable synthetic materials rather than rubber.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Consider trying a half to a full size larger, as the fit may run slightly small. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Reduced cushioning over time
The midsole foam may compress with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacement after significant wear.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the X10 rubber outsole offers good traction, caution is advised on very wet or slick surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to maintain grip.
Discomfort in the heel area
Ensure the supportive heel cage is functioning correctly and the laces are adjusted for a secure, but not constricting, fit. Check if the removable insole is positioned correctly.
