Mizuno's Two Revolutionary Technologies
The Wave Plate
The Wave Plate is an all-in-one concept combining 3 key functions: cushioning, dynamism, and stability. It disperses the shock wave like a shock absorber and provides immediate energy return, thus generating a more dynamic cushioning sensation.
1. The shape-memory Pebax plate: inserted between 2 layers of EVA, it deforms upon impact and always returns to its original shape, thus providing stability;
2. It disperses the shock wave like a shock absorber and provides immediate energy return, thus generating a more dynamic cushioning sensation;
3. Combined with the horseshoe system (shape of the heel sole), it protects the calcaneal spine by dispersing the shock wave around the heel and not in its center.
