The new Mizuno Wave Prophecy 9, the new update of one of the most emblematic models for long distances of the Japanese firm, has landed on the market. Optimized for runners of high weight, above 80 kilos, this ninth version is characterized by offering maximum shock absorption and unsurpassed comfort in running, thanks to the ambitious Infinity Wave technology. A first class technological framework that favors a more natural and efficient running performance.
The Mizuno Wave Prophecy 9 Running shoes have been specifically designed to offer maximum cushioning for the longest and most intense runs. To do this, the Japanese firm is committed to incorporate some of its most cutting-edge technologies that allow a total absorption of the impacts in running and a more fluid footprint. Without further ado, let's get right into the analysis of the new features of this new update from Mizuno.
The midsole continues to feature Mizunos exclusive Infinity Wave system, which offers superior cushioning to successfully complete the longest and most demanding distances. A construction that favors a total shock absorption for a more natural driving of the foot in the race. Also, thanks to the SmoothRide technology, smoother and less aggressive transitions are achieved.
The upper of the Mizuno Wave Prophecy 9 does not bring major changes compared to its predecessor, the Mizuno Wave Prophecy 8. The Airmesh technology is still present, a very breathable fabric that allows a continuous flow of air in and out for a permanent feeling of comfort! Aesthetically the new update retains the continuity of the line already present in the last models of the saga. An aggressive and robust look that will allow neutral runners to successfully complete the longest and most demanding runs.
The outsole of these top-of-the-rangeRunning shoes in cushioning incorporates Mizuno's most solid and durable rubber, the el X. A material that substantially improves traction and increases the shoe's durability.
The new update of the Mizuno Wave Prophecy 9 does not contemplate radical changes with respect to its predecessor. A continuist line that is also reflected in the technologies present in this new model, such as the Infinity Wave system or the SmoothRide technology. A model that remains faithful to the essence of the Mizuno Prophecy saga, offering the neutral runner maximum cushioning to successfully complete the longest and most demanding distances. As far as technical specifications are concerned, it is worth mentioning a 12 mm drop and a weight of 320 grams.
