Wave Rider 29

As Mizuno’s best-selling classic, the Wave Rider 29 builds on decades of trusted performance while delivering a softer, more responsive ride than ever before. The updated midsole features MIZUNO ENERZY NXT, a nitrogen-infused EVA blend that adds lightweight bounce and enhanced cushioning — all while preserving the familiar Wave Rider feel runners have relied on for nearly three decades.

The iconic MIZUNO WAVE plate maintains a stable and fluid stride, providing just the right amount of structure for everything from steady daily miles to faster efforts. Whether you're logging long runs, easing through recovery, or picking up the tempo, the Wave Rider 29 delivers consistently smooth transitions and dependable comfort.

Beneath, a durable X10 rubber outsole ensures confident grip and long-lasting performance through high-mileage use. Up top, the new jacquard air mesh upper offers excellent breathability and step-in comfort, adapting naturally to the foot for a secure, everyday fit.

With its refined 10mm drop and familiar ride quality, the Wave Rider 29 is a confident update — elevating cushioning and responsiveness while honoring the legacy that made it Mizuno’s most trusted neutral trainer.
