Mizuno Women's Wave Catalyst Fuchsia / Silver Orange Ankle-High Running - 6M

I have been wearing the mizuno wave inspire since the #8 model. I have a regular/narrow fit and was sized for a 8 or 8.5 for running (normally wear 7.5). The 8 regular is a good fit. The shoe is comfortable, and allows the extra room without being too loose (though I might try an 8 or 8.5 narrow for more snug feeling.) I use for gym workouts 3-4 days/week, and light jogging (1-2 miles on their outdoor trail/track) once or twice a week. Usually replace every 6-8 months. Bought the red (Barbados/cherry) and I love the color (feels like I'm wearing ruby slippers); I'd happily purchase the black again (my normal color preference) if it is available in a better combo than this season's black/orange.

I was looking for new shoes to wear during my workout. I have been using Asics for many years because I have ankle injuries and always look for great ankle support shoes and Asics have the gel shoes that work perfectly on my feet and ankle. It was time to buy a new pair so I started doing a bit more research. I read the previous reviews on this one and saw that it had great ankle support and was light which were the most important two criteria that I look for. I've had the shoes for about a month now. The first time I wore it, I was a bit worried coz it felt a bit more roomy in the toes area. But the second time I did, it felt great. I wear them to run on the streets or in the track mainly, I still use Asics for gym workouts but I might switch to this one very soon. Great support, great grip, very comfortable fit ( Asics sometimes hurt the toes depending on the workout. I have not had this problem with this pair). They are super light too. Definitely recommend them. I run 2-3 miles 6-7 days a week.
