Mizuno Squash Shoes

A roundup of Mizuno squash shoes posted on Squash Source.

Mizuno don’t specifically make squash shoes, they make indoor court shoes for handball and volleyball. Because they are non-marking shoes, they are appropriate for use on squash courts.

These are non-marking court shoes but don’t really look like squash shoes. Too much padding maybe. Not cheap either.

    Im on my 3rd pair of Mizuno Wave Twister 4’s. Extremely light, and perfect fit. Hard to get hold of nowadays, so just bought a pair of Wave Stealth V. Was labeled up as ladies, but Size 11?? in a great Grey/Red colour, and just 20 grams more than the Twister Wave. Got them reduced to £40. Bought mizuno again because i knew sizing would be perfect. Let you know how i get on with these. I find all Asics a lot heavier than Mizuno, unless anyone can recomend some very light ones??

      Lightest Asics I’ve used is the Fastball 3’s. A little Too light actually for me in that the upper is pretty thin and flexible (which you’d think is a great thing, and it is — but), and I ran into the sidewall and stumped my toe pretty bad due to the lack of support in that area .. so it’s a double-edged sword. They were very light and comfortable though.
      I’ve never tried the Blade range … the Blade 7’s look like the other lightest shoes in their lineup, I’d be curious to try them, but I have some fear of experiencing the same encounter as with the Fastballs.
      I am currently using new gel tactic’s that just got released this year, in a men’s size 10.5. On my scale they weigh in the mid 12oz range, not too bad, but they’re very supportive and comfortable, I have no complaints on these shoes whatsoever, worth the buy for me!

        Thanks for your reply. Ill have to give the fastballls a try. I like light shoes as one of my strengths is getting around the court quick-and light shoes do help. I tried the “Thunder” blade’s i think (as they were cheap) but sooooo heavy and sent them back. To give you a comparison, my Wave Twister 4’s weigh just 10oz (size 11) and Wave Stealth V are 12oz-we’ll have to see how we get on with these. Cheers

          I hope one day I will be at a level of play when 1 extra oz on my leg will make so much difference 😀

            Haha, me too. Although the Thunder blades i tried, were almost double the weight, and i think most would notice the difference on court, especially if you were playing for a while. Admittedly, im not noticing the 2oz difference between my Mizuno’s. Some people prefer heavier, sturdier with more support, while others like me, like a lighter (twinkle toes) type shoe. I need all the help i can get!

      Thanks, I never heard of those before. They’re tough to find for sale but here’s a picture:

    Why is it not many Pros wear Mizuno? The ones I know are Daryl Selby, Low Wee Wern, Misaki Kobayashi. Mizuno shoes are comparable to Asics in terms of their origin (Japan), a sheer number of models, striking colours, volleyball shoes and high quality.

      Agree! They are one of the only brands of shoe that actually use a wide variety of colours and options are apparently well made so no idea why they get over looked.

      I bought some ASICS online and I had to send them back twice until I got the correct size. I’m an 8 and in the end had to wear a 7?!

      I’d be interested to know if Mizuno come up as a true size or not.

        Hi Rob,

        I had a pair of Wave Lightning RX’s years back, back then racquetball was my main sport, I hadn’t picked up squash yet, and I didn’t like how they were performing on my local racquetball courts. But I would have no doubt they would have performed well on the squash courts (racquetball courts whatever reason have like that shiny gloss over the wood, where as squash courts are like soft gritty wood). Great built shoe, comfortable, and had great reinforcement in drag areas, and was a pretty light!

        Anywho … for me I’m a 10.5 in all my athletic shoes; I’ve worn numerous court shoes from Adidas, Salming, Mizuno & Asics, all in 10.5’s and they’ve been consistent for my foot.
        Hope this helps in your search,

        Cheers

            I have a pair of Wave Stealth 2s for over a year and while I don’t really like the styling of them, I do really like the way they perform. Very durable (I’m a big time foot dragger on my right foot), very good stability and grip and nice cushioning. I’ve had shoes from all the big brands like Salming (Race models), Adidas (Stabil 11) and Asics (Blast 5, Gel-Squad, Fastaball 2) in recent years and I’m as happy with these as I have been with any of those.

    hello, i am a beginner. i’m 1.75m and 59kg with slim feet, which shoes do you recommend? can you explain the benefits of each make eg. stealth etc? i’ll be using them for badminton, not squash so i think lateral support should be considered

    Which one of the shoes would be preferred or recommended for me?
    I like to be different as well ☺.

      Tornado or Lightning Z. Lightning Z is lighter and cheaper but tornado is better at cushioning. I’d recommend the Tornado for you
