History Of Mizuno Running Shoes
In April 2006, Mizuno celebrated its 100th anniversary. In 1906 two brothers, Richachi and Rizo Mizuno, started a small shop to sell their Mizuno running shoes. Knowing all athletes needed the best running shoes possible, the Mizuno's got to work. In 1912, Japan participated in the Olympic Games for the first time, and Mizuno running shoes were primed to take off.
After Mizuno found success in Japan they decided to expand. The typical Mizuno running shoes review was fantastic, and in 1980, the brothers decided to expand their operation to the United States.They were a top contender when it came time for the 1992 Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain when athletes using Mizuno products won 72 medals. After shining at the Olympics, Mizuno was ready for their next competition.
Through the years, Mizuno has kept moving forward. In 1997, they released the patented Mizuno Wave technology. Mizuno's wave technology makes use of a wave plate, which provides excellent cushioning as it disperses the force of impact across a larger surface area. In fact, the Mizuno Wave Rider first won the coveted Editors' Choice award from Runner's World magazine in 1999.
The Mizuno Wave Creation is another of Mizuno's more popular models.In 2002, the Mizuno Wave Creation won its first Runner's World award, it won again in 2004 and 2006. One of the most popular and beloved of the Mizuno line, this shoe uses the newer Infinity Wave technology, which provides superior cushioning, transition and durability. Throughout the years, this continues to be one of the more popular models.
Each model of Mizuno running shoes makes use of new and improved materials and technologies. The Mizuno Wave Inspire surprised the running community as it won the first ever 'Best Debut' award from Runner's World magazine. The Mizuno Wave with SmoothRide Engineering and the Composite Double Fan Wave uniformly disperses shock over the length and width of the midsole. Furthermore, it is lightweight and extremely responsive.
Mizuno's are a favorite among women. Mizuno women's running shoes have a revolutionary heel-fit system. To make their shoes cool and comfortable Mizuno uses an advanced Intercool system. Mizuno has promised to spend these next 100 years focusing on 'Sports for All Children.'
