  1. Re: Mizuno Wave running shoes with 'biolock'

    To those of you who took the time to learn how to use, and most likely now
    love the bio-lock on your Mizuno wave running shoes, you better start
    looking for replacement ahead of time.

    I just stopped by my local running shoe store [Pacers] and noticed that only
    one of the Mizuno models had 'bio-lock'. The store said they - Mizuno -
    was fazing it out. They said too many people were unable to tie the shoe
    correctly.

    Cheers

  2. Well Bob, what did you expect? Asking joggers to tie shoes, is like
    asking a fish to do math.

  3. I think it would have helped if Mizuno had included instructions.

    When I bought mine the sales clerk took the time to explain it. They are a
    slight hassle to lace but it really is a great way to lock the heal of the
    shoe to the heal of your foot without having the laces overly tight across
    the top of the foot.

    I guess I'm just grumpy. I finally find a shoe that works and now I can't
    just buy the same model when I wear out the current pair.

    I bought Wave Riders about 2 months ago. The literature says they do NOT
    have that feature. I'd say about half do. Guess it'll be even less now.
    It interested me, since, when I tried them on, my heel did seem to be
    slipping a little. After I ran in them, though, they seemed OK.

    Then go buy 5 pair. Now, before there's none left.

    Seriously, though, you'll probably be able to buy off the internet for a
    year or so.

  5. Actually I've been looking for the Mizuno Redhawk which is really hard to
    find. Jamie [censored] from footrx had the Mizuno distributor check all the
    stores that carry it. They found 1 pair which they say may well be the last
    shoe in my size on the market. Needless to say I ordered it.

    FWIW. I just bought a similar mizuno wave shoe without the bio-lock. The
    pair with the bio lock definitely firms around my ankle with a lot less
    tightness of the top laces. That (the less tight laces] is what I like
    about them.

    Cheers
