    Hey Doc, Been watching your review for quite sometime and love your tennis and basketball shoe reviews.
    I live in Tokyo so I already have both the all court and the clay version. I'm loving every aspect of this new shoes from Mizuno.
    I've been wearing the Asics Solution Speed FF for the past 2 years and didn't have any problems except felt a little narrow in the toe area and the tie down of the shoe laces were not so easy. I even put in the PowerStep insoles from your review which was great for my tennis and everyday use.
    Back to Mizuno Wave Enforce Tour, it's light, glove like feel, heel cushion is fabulous. I usually wear a US9 (27.0cm) but went down a size US8.5 (26.5cm) because the tennis shop sales person saw that I had too much toe room with the US9. I tried the US8.5 and I felt that the balls of my feet were at the right place than the US9. I played with the new shoes on the court last week for 3 hours and had no discomfort in the toe area. My first tennis shoes from Mizuno and lovin' it.

    Hey Doc! I would really appreciate a video of how worn should the outsoles look in order to change the show for health reasons, like, ok, if they look like this and money is not a problem, you could start getting new ones, if they look like this, definitely you should change them now because it may bring these issues. Past 2 shoes I had I felt like the outsoles still have more to give, but my legs started to get really tense, with tendinitis. As I changed them legs got better, so probably it was too late. I haven't found any good info in the internet on when to change the shoes. Thanks!

      Without hard measurement data, which is very difficult to do, a baseline shoe or three, to which others are compared, would be very helpful. Without comparative methods, it's just another subjective anecdote on the internet. Bring it to the next level!

    Bought a pair two days ago. Was concerned about fitting in the forefoot & being too narrow. Wore them around the house all day. Actually took a nap with them on. Tonight I got out on the court for several hours. My review. The best shoes I've ever put on my feet. Great cushioning & actually felt propelled in to any steps taken on court. Ran down some drop shots easily with a bum knee. No foot pain like some K-Swiss I've always wore in the past. I had a pair of Lotto Raptors & gave them away after a full day on the court & wearing them to Dodger stadium all day on Father's Day. Highly recommended. I've already bought another pair in white. Thanks FOOT DOC ZACH for steering me in the right direction. Much appreciated. 🎾👍

    Hey Zach,
    Just an FYI: Tennis Magazine didn't name the Exceed Tour 4 shoe of the year. The title of the entire guide was "Best in Shoe" and an image of the Mizuno was used to illustrate the opener. It wasn't meant to draw special attention to the shoe. The actual edit for the guide was done in alphabetical order, not by ranking. And there was no mention of any award in the review of the shoe. However, the coupling of the image with the title caused some readers to misconstrue that the Mizuno was the best of the bunch. And the reputation stuck.
    Anyway, enjoy your in-depth reviews.

    Hi Doc, I'd like to have your opinion about these Mizuno compared to Asics Court FF2 and 3.
    I'm 50, athletic and play tennis 5/6 hours per week, even more when I play tournaments. I usually wear a custom orthotic insoles due to my feet (overpronation and a kind of low arch), which led to several calf injuries (strains) between 2017 and 2020, until I finally started wearing those orthotics and had no more injury so far.
    I usually wear Asics Court FF2 because of their stabilty, support/containment and responsiveness.
    I wonder if these Mizuno might be even better for my feet/calf issues, more shock absorbing and supporting/containing at the same level of the Asics.
    I'll appreciate your opinion very much since I'm about to change and I'm forced to pick another model now that Asics Court FF2 are almost out of stock.
    Should I stick to Asics and get the Court FF3 or should I go for the Mizuno???
    Thank you.

    I am on my second pair of Mizuno's , so the review is spot on, but I have noticed that A. They wear out alot quicker than Lotto Hyperpulse 100 (which I have also owned numerous pairs) B. The sole wore out after three months (in the UK we have no sole guarantee as far as I am aware) and C., which I welcome some feedback on, I have noticed that under the ball of the foot, on an old pair and brand new pair of Mizuno's , the sole moves and can be pushed in a little with fingers. Is this normal? I cant do this on the Lottos - comments gratefully received...

    Hello Zach, i didn't know your channel..thanks for the information you shared.
    I resumed playing tennis in February, after 6 years of stopping with the old asics gel resolution (of 6 years ago)..tendinitis after 3 workouts. In May i bought the mizuno wave exceed light and fell in love with it, although the tendonitis didn't go away anyway. Now they have already worn out on the sides (they don't have reinforcements like these in the video), and since i stay on mizuno and you talk about it well, i would like to buy this wave enforce tour: do you think they can improve my tendinitis with the shoe as it is, or do you need a specific insole to replace? Thank you

    Podcast ideas:
    Podcast ideas (could either be done as a minor point in an episode or as whole episodes themselves, depending on length):
    -The difference between getting the right shoe and using shoes as a bandaid for a deeper issue ...e.g. Getting a good shoe for heel pain, but never stretching calves, or investigating WHY the heel pain is there.
    -If you have a history of a foot problem, but with the right shoes and care the problem fades, is it ever safe to go to a more performance-based shoe? Or should you always consider shoes that address a problem you have had in the past?
    -Conversations with other podiatrists and the common problems players of different sports present with, common mistakes people make, etc.
    -If I don't have the money for expensive shoes online, or could only really get what was on the rack at a sporting goods store, what should I look for? (This could also be a really cool video idea where you go into a store and actually walk viewers through the process of finding the right shoes)
    -Ways shoe companies trick people and what kind of language to look out for in product descriptions that are warning or red flags
    -How to properly care for your tennis/basketball shoes
    -The true costs behind getting the right shoe and the wrong shoe (so, the wrong shoe exacerbating an issue could mean you pay for the shoe and the medical costs)
    -Going off the last point: What are the average costs for different issues brought about by playing with the wrong shoe?
    -When to invest in a sport specific shoe when learning a new sport and the arguments for/against. Should new players get the right shoe immediately since their form won't be great and they could take awkward steps and roll an ankle in a shoe with less lateral support? Or should they wait to get a pair until they have the fundamentals down and are moving more and more quickly?
    -Since you play tennis, a good conversation could be had around how much of someone's budget should go toward shoes vs. racket and how often you should be buying new shoes.
    Even if you use none of these, I hope they inspire some other ideas or get the gears turning!

    Under foot, these shoes remind me a bit of the Lotto Hyperpulse Raptor 100 or the Diadora B.Icon 2 - or perhaps a more slightly more stable Babolat Jet Mach 3 or a lighter Adidas Solecourt Boost (good company to be in IMO). Definitely a more complete shoe than anything in the Nike, Asics, and/or Adidas line now. Much prefer these to the Asics Court FF3 or Gel Resolution 9. Definitely in the TOP FIVE for 2023 - if not #1 overall right now.

      @markmoore5981 Рік тому +1

      One thing I found very interesting with these shoes was the lockdown of the foot really focused on encasing the ankle to secure the foot, whereas, the Asics Gel Res 9 tries to strap your foot in using it's "DYNAWRAP technology" with the straps in the lacing. The Mizuno Wave Enforce Tour system is much more stable and MUCH more comfortable. The Gel Res 9 system literally crushed my foot. The Gel Res 9s also feel less nimble that the Enforce Tour. The Mizuno is hands down a better shoe IMO.

  • @markmoore5981
    @markmoore5981 Рік тому +7

    The shoe really feels like it is "vacuum sealed" (as Dr. Zach pout it in his review) around your foot. The ankle collar system in these shoes is brilliant. By far the best shoe I have tried (and I have tried them all) IMO. Cushioning is outstanding with a little energy return. Stability is fantastic. Fit is terrific and runs true to size. Traction is superb. Breathability is excellent. The more I wear these shoes the more I like them!

      @@FootDoctorZach I wore it too fast. Got a replacement which felt I was wearing another brand of shoe. First off, the laces are shorter. The carpet_like_feel sole that I felt with the previous pair is not felt with the replacement pair and last but not least, the shoe hurts my feet, especially on the side of my left foot. I didn't think I would have that kind of problem, wore it on the court and now I am stuck with it.

    • @markmoore5981
      @markmoore5981 Рік тому +2

      One thing I found very interesting with these shoes was the lockdown of the foot really focused on encasing the ankle to secure the foot, whereas, the Asics Gel Res 9 tries to strap your foot in using it's "DYNAWRAP™ technology" with the straps in the lacing. The Mizuno Wave Enforce Tour system is much more stable and MUCH more comfortable. The Gel Res 9s also feel less nimble that the Enforce Tour. The Mizuno is hands down a better shoe IMO.

    thank you, been looking for a replacement for the sole court boost!!! I wear a 10.5 on sole court boost, would you suggest staying at 10.5 as I think the sole court runs big, or go to an 11? Thanks for all the excellent reviews!

    Great shoe, hefty player here but after a one hour practice session and two hour singles match last night, the tread on these are already starting to get worn down, I don’t think this tread is going to last due to my serve toe drag and the tread on the outer edge of the shoe already being worn down on my right shoe, guessing cause I’m right handed and favor my forehand or my right foot rotation when I hit a backhand and rely on my right foot to pivot to get back to my recovery position. Not a slider by the way.. ha

    How does the outsole durability on these compare to the gel resolution 9s?

The gels are holding up pretty well but I can start to see the wear and don't know if they'll hold out the entire 6 months

    Zach would really like to hear your thoughts on barefoot shoes and how to get the closest feel to a barefoot shoe in purchasing athletic shoes because there aren't any out there really at the current moment. I have been wearing vivobarefoots for the last 6 months as an avid disc golfer and my feet have strengthened tremendously, my feet just feel better wearing vivos over any other shoe now and I've just recently gotten back into court sports via pickleball and need something that compliments the barefoots well. Seems like these may be the choice. But the podcast topic above would still be awesome to hear about!
