Mizuno Wave Lightning Z2 court shoes.

Some Squash Source readers have said that they enjoy these shoes for squash (see comments below). Others have commented (about the prior model, the Mizuno Wave Lightning Z) that the heel of these shoes doesn’t provide enough traction for squash.

Update: these shoes have been replaced by the Mizuno Wave Lightning Z3.

This color scheme is called dress blues, white and green gecko. Spotted this in 2016. Looks black in the picture to me, but they called the color “dress blues”, so it may look more navy-colored in person.

    I switched from Asics to Mizuno Wave Lightning a few years ago and never looked back. The Mizuno shoes are so much lighter and quicker than the Asics gel shoes I had. I have no complaints with the Mizuno shoes. I play doubles and singles squash in them along with paddle tennis on a synthetic grass court.

    Great comfort and court feel. Light feeling on the feet and very natural great form fitting construction. However, I play about 3-4 games a week with aggressive and quick playing style and medium to larger build…..I ripped the arches of the sidewall of shoes in 2months.
    Mizuno was very kind to send me new Z3 right away.

      How do you feel Z3? Are they OK for squash? Is heel traction problem significant?
