The Breakdown
The mizuno Wave Mujin 2 isn't a great shoe. I can't think why anyone would buy this over much better and similarly prices shoes from brands such as inov-8, Scott, Salomon and la Sportiva. The shoe is heavy and it feels very wooden and clumpy when out on the trails. A thick upper and padded tongue make the shoe very warm to wear. I was really expecting a lot more from the black and red Mizuno. Disappointing.
Grip– 6.0
Comfort– 5.0
Pros
- None that I can think of
Cons
- Heavy
- Uncomfortable
- Warm
- Feels very wooden
- Unresponsive
- Not very grippy on trails
With the Mizuno Wave Mujin 2 being a direct competitor of such great shoes as the Scott T2 Kinalabu 3 and The North Face Ultra Endurance and they cost more they have to bring their A game to the table.
The Mizuno Wave Mujin 2 falls way short of being a rival for these shoes
