AP Plus™, Midsole : Is Mizuno's top of the line full length mid-sole copolymer material that is lighter weight and has better energy return than AP.

Airmesh™ : Provides the utmost in breathability with strategically placed overlays for comfort and support.

Blown Rubber, Forefoot : Is lightweight and flexible. It provides added cushioning while maintaining durability and a smooth ride.

Extended Wave® Plate : Mizuno Wave An elastic thermal plastic material shaped in a Composite double fan wave pattern, design for vertical deformation during heel strike to absorb impact while reducing pronation : Wave Plate : Cushioning and Stability. The only technology that combines two distinctly different elements that are both inherently necessary in great athletic shoes.

Dynamotion Fit™ : Design technology that relieves the stress the foot naturally places on footwear, eliminating distortion for the perfect fit.

Flex Controller, Forefoot : Provides a smoother and softer initial contact impact.

Intercool™ : Solves the problem of heat and humidity build-up in a running shoe by incorporating a full-length ventilation system.

OrthoLite Sockliner : An anti-microbial moisture wicking sockliner that promotes a healthy environment for feet and in-fit comfort.

SmoothRide™ : Designed to minimize the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot through the phases of the running gait cycle. This reduces shock vibration and increases flexibility.

Strobel Last : The upper is attached to a thin material that is patterned on the shape or silhouette of the midsole. Traditional strobel lasts use a thin cloth material, while newer variations use a thin sheet of EVA for a more cushioned feel.

SR Touch™, Rearfoot : A lightweight cushioning compound placed in the heel. It improve the SoomthRide Engineering with high resiliency and quick bounce back for a much effective toe off.

X-10™, Rearfoot : Provides the most durable carbon rubber from Mizuno that allows for longer wear in high impact areas and provides more traction at heel strike.
