 Topic: Help with Mizuno sizingPosted: 11/22/2017 at 11:05pm |

I wear anything from a 10.5 to a 12 depending on model and brand but usually a size 11. My feet measure exactly 11 inches long by 4 1/8 inches wide which seems to be a size 11 by size charts. What size wave medal 5 or Wave Drive 8 would be an ideal fit?
Thanks!

Why not go try on some Mizuno shoes sold in the USA such as running shoes or volleyball shoes?

Im a 12.5 in Nike and 12 in asics and i fit a 45/29.5cm Wave Drive 8 and Wave Medal 5, which is roughly 11 or 11.5 US.
So half or full size down from what you usually wear. |

Wave drive 7 and 8's toe box is quite wide and relaxed. So you dont have to go a size up. My feet is 29,5 cm long and really wide. So İ had to wear a euro 46,5 butterfly energy force xiii and acics cyber blade. But euro 45,5 (29,5cm) wave drive 7 was just fine and really comfy.

From what i read mizuno volleyball shoes and running shoes run more true to size. Their TT shoes are notorious to run big.

I've also noticed that volleyball and handball shoes feel different in size than mine Wave Medal 5.

I wore a size 11 in Asics Gell Rockets. Normally whenever I have to go bigger than an 11 its so the width isn't too tight. So it sounds like even though a size 11 / 44.5 is what should fit me based on my foot size I should go down to a 44?
Any preference between the wave drive or medal or are they pretty much equal.

You are probably either a 43 or a 44. Wave medal has bigger/roomier toe box and wave drive is more normal to slightly wide. My asics gel court control were narrow compared to wave drive. If you are in US and ordering mizuno shoes from TT11 you can email them to ask about sizing, you would need to measure your foot in cm. They had a chart up on their website but i don't see it anymore. Best guess is to try someones mizuno shoes in your club if they have a size close to yours.

I am 28.5cm all my shoes. Nikes or yonex or asics. Forget about us uk pr eu size, just on the cm.
My mizunos are 28.5 too. In terms of eu size, mizunos are 44, nike 44.5, asics tennis 45 etc.. US is 10.5 to 11. Again, see the cm or japan size (same thing) of several shoes and buy the corresp. Cm from tt11 or tt japan or w/ |

I just got a pair of mizuno Wave tornado X and they run small. Got a 12 US and i think i need a 12.5 because of length. Width is similar to Wave drive, not narrow. Seems like a solid shoe, abit on a heavy side.

Mizuno sizing in table tennis =/= mizuno outside TT.
That's why stick to the CM size, in most things / try 'em out. |

I have wave medal 5 and Wave Drive 8. For me, Wave medal 5 is one size larger than usual and is wider than usual. Wave drive 8 is true to size. If you have wide feet, Medal would be better.
My advice is 10.5 for Wave medal 5 and 11 for wave drive 8. Can't be totally sure, though, it's hard. |
