The waterproof GORE-TEX membrane of the Wave Rider GTX trail running shoes by Mizuno mean you can take on the mountains in any weather. The running shoes are ideal for off-road use and feature long studs in the tread. The X10 rubber compound used in the outsole provides a powerful traction in wet and dry conditions for optimum grip at all times. Mizuno Enerzy is used in the midsole to provide targeted relief for ligaments and muscles during long runs. The company's own cushioning material efficiently absorbs shocks and provides a natural running feel that allows the foot to roll ergonomically. Practical pull-on loops on the heel makes it easier to put the Mizuno Wave Rider GTX trail running shoes on and off.
