Play at the top of your game with this comfortable shoe packed with features customized for volleyball. Enjoy soft cushioning and high energy return with the MIZUNO ENERZY NEXT and SOCKLINER at the forefoot, plus the MIZUNO ENERZY midsole.

All these features come at a remarkably light weight thanks to the monofilament mesh.

①MIZUNO ENERZY NXT/MIZUNO ENERZY SOCKLINER The MIZUNO ENERZY NXT and MIZUNO ENERZY SOCKLINER equipped at the forefoot provide soft cushioning and high energy return that you can feel.

②MIZUNO WAVE This shoe features the new WAVE structure that was developed to provide maximum support for jumping. The PLATE is extended on the outside of the forefoot to provide maximum support for stability when taking steps and energy return when jumping.

③Dyna-Eyelet Wrap The eyelet structure with large cut-outs offers a fit that feels like it wraps the entire foot.

④ Pursuit of a light weight Monofilament mesh is used to achieve a light weight. The transparent mesh gives a lightweight appearance and enhanced breathability.

⑤ Rounded heel structure Supports jumping motions that start from the heel and improves stability when taking steps.

The bouncy softness of the MIZUNO ENERZY midsole combined with the stability and propulsive force of the MIZUNO WAVE yields smooth, high jumps that feel guided by the shoe. This shoe maintains the same weight of 295 grams (size 27.0 cm) as the WAVE LIGHTNING Z7 while further enhancing the cushioning. The seamless upper gently envelops the entire foot.
