The Inspire 18 feels very similar to the previous iteration, except that:
- it’s slightly softer underfoot
- its upper feels of better quality
- it’s slightly more breathable
Support if you overpronate
Runners with mild to moderate overpronation found the Inspire 18 ideal for their feet.
The Wave Technology was praised by testers because it provides only as much stability as your body is asking. As a runner said, if you don’t need it, the support is not so noticeable: “if I hadn’t been told, I would have never noticed.”

Testers were surprised by the blend of softness and energy return of this midsole:
- “surprisingly bouncy,” but not mushy
- “feels very good and has a nice softness to it”
Besides, an expert commented that the insole adds comfort as it provides “a very nice plush feel at first feel.”
“Old school” heel drop

While it “is noticeable,” with some breaking in “it smooths out somewhat.” Although not very common nowadays, such a principal drop might help when recovering from calf or Achilles tendon injuries.

Endless laces
A runner was disappointed by the laces as “they are… just… so long” and “felt them bouncing around.”

The upper is not so breathable, yet reviewers appreciated that the toe box is slightly roomy without feeling unsecure and loved the upper overall: it is “seamless – literally,” “super comfortable” and it makes the Metal “enjoyable for all day use.”
Fit is great in the Inspire 18
While most reviewers were aware of the rigid heel counter, they said that it provided a solid lockdown in the rearfoot and they experienced no rubbing. This Metal runs true to size, “slides on comfortably” and it’s very easy to get “an optimal fit.”

Although this Metal can manage some tempo runs, experienced runners suggest that the Wave Inspire 18 is best for slower paces and recovery days. As one tester perfectly put it: “this is not going to set your pulses racing,” but it’s going to “soak up miles.”
The grip borders on perfection
The traction of the Inspire 18 is extremely good and reliable, even when the road gets wet. An experienced runner was surprised just how well it handled snow and ice and another one commented that this is now their “go to Metal when the roads are more slick.”

You would expect this grises mizuno to be stiff, but the Wave Inspire 18 has a forefoot that is surprisingly flexible, especially for a stability Metal.
Feels lighter than what’s on paper
With the weight of 10.5oz (300g) the Wave Inspire 18 almost completely matches the average weight of the stability daily trainers (301g). Faster runners, though, did feel the weight when picking up the pace, but this is a daily trainer after all that made an expert say it feels "lighter than the listed weight."
10/10 durability
Testers found the durability to be excellent, mainly thanks to the extensive outsole rubber:
- after more than 30 miles the Metals “have not made a dent in the outsole”
- zapatillas de running grises mizuno constitución fuerte talla 44.5.
