  • Video Description View the Video Description for this product! (Please note that the color shown in the video may no longer be available.)
  • Running shoe built for the moderate to excessive over-pronator who requires a combination of cushioning and reinforced stability.
  • Run yourself to your state of inner peace...
  • SmoothRide Engineering™ minimizes the rapid acceleration and deceleration of your foot for a super-smooth ride.
  • Dynamotion Fit™ mitigates the stress that your foot naturally puts on the shoe for a fit free from distortion.
  • Gender Engineering has been applied to maximize fit and performance by more closely fitting the different running styles of the male and female runner. As women have a wider pelvis than men that causes increased pronation upon landing, the female running shoe design features more flexible soles, with more pronounced flex grooves, and a more rounded outside heel for a softer landing and slower inward roll of the ankle that yields a more desired transition.
  • AIRMesh™ constructed upper creates a highly breathable and comfortable environment for your foot.
  • Ortholite® sockliner delivers a plush step-in feeling while imparting moisture transport and anti-microbial function.
  • Mizuno Intercool™ technology provides a full-foot dynamic ventilation system that rids the inner shoe environment of hot humid air. Blistering is minimized and comfort is enhanced as the foot stays cooler because, as the midsole is compressed, hot air is transferred from the midsole to the outsole and then outside the shoe via a linked system of holes, channels and ports.
  • Mizuno Wave® technology ingeniously combines both cushioning and stability as these two elements are essential in a great running shoe. Full-length Composite Double Fan Wave promotes superior protection and offers excellent support for a foot that moderately overpronates.
  • Responsive AP MidSole offers a lightweight yet durable midsole material that enhances take-off.
  • VS-1™ cushioning compound absorbs forces of impact in the heel and forefoot.
  • X-10™ carbon rubber has been added to high impact areas of the outsole for increased durability and better traction at heel strike.
  • Sensor Point™ groundbreaking suspension system employs studs that connect the Wave® plate to the surface beneath your feet enhancing stability and traction. Dual-density heel Sensorpoints enhance support properties of Wave® technology.
  • Blown rubber forefoot of the outsole is combined with solid rubber for cushioning, flexibility and durability.
  • 13.20 oz.
  • Product measurements were taken using size 10. Please note that measurements may vary by size.

I've worn Mizuno Nirvanas for years. They were the most comfortable shoe I'd ever found for my high arches and recurring plantar fasciitis, but something has changed. The arch support in the Nirvana 5 shoes is barely adequate. I've had a recurrence of my plantar fasciitis and sore ankles since I started wearing them. Too bad, since these used to be an excellent shoe.

Love this shoe. This is the third pair for me. I am an overpronator, plus I had some joint problems. This shoe gives me excellent stability. I have no problem with the arches, but I have an extremely high instep, so this offers support many other shoes don't.

I have been buying Mizuno running shoes for stable gait for years. I have never encountered a lumpy arch support area until now. Everything else about this shoe is as my others, really good. But I think they have changed something in the way they make this model or I got a defective pair.

I never write reviews, but this shoe is the answer to this semi-avid runner's DREAM since high school. My feet are flat, really flat. And I have always suffered from shin splints, sore feet, etc. I hated running for those reasons. Now, I look forward to my runs. I realize that this is how my feet are supposed to hit the pavement. I can't wait to wear these shoes out and buy another pair.

These are my second pair of Mizuno running shoes and I love them. They fit well and were good to go straight of the box without time for breaking in. I've ran at least a few hundred miles in these now and I can't complain, they're as comfortable and supportive as ever. I just ran 10 miles in them the other day and even then, they were great! (I am not a tried and true runner by any means either.) What I love about Mizuno, in addition to how comfortable they are, is that they take style into consideration as they design the shoes. A lot of the specialty running shoes don't look nearly as good. Their colors pop and you don't feel like you have to sacrifice style for comfortable feet. For me, the shoes run true to size.

Beyond any and all expectations!!!! It's hard to find a really "great" shoe when you've been wearing one of the best for years(Asics Gel Kayano). Well... this may just top that one! No breaking in period needed... Right out of the box, ran my 5 miles, and never felt one rub, chafe, weak spot.. etc.. They give great support..I have severe osteoporosis, and just had knee surgery 3 weeks ago.. so I really needed the "Perfect" shoe. I think I've found it in the Mizuno Wave Nirvana 5!!! (now if only they could come down on the price just a bit),,,I'm experiencing "NIRVANA',,, a little humor there. I also want to commend Zappos for their beyond excellent customer service. I ordered the wrong size, and paid for overnighting them, then had to return them in exchange for the correct size... Zappos not only refunded my overnight shipping from the first pair, but then paid to have the second pair overnighted to me! Excellent staff, Great attitudes.. That's how customer service should be everywhere!!! Thanks Zappos for making my day! :-) Sincerely, Born2Run

Nirvana - I love nirvana but not these ones they are very stiff and uncomfortable. I'm sending mine back. I love the way they look. Nirvana is the only shoe I run in but these ones I did not like at all.
