Mizuno Wave Leopardus Hockey Shoes
Mizuno introduces the Wave Leopardus, a speed model to the field hockey pitch to allow fast players to go FASTER. The strong structural hold of the upper combined with the propulsive outsole pattern will get players going faster and moving quicker. Look out for players going by at dizzying speeds.
Synthetic Upper
Offering excellent support and structure, the Wave Leopardus features a synthetic upper. The synthetic materials have been added to offer exceptional support during lateral movements, as well as protection from impact and abrasions. Alongside this, the upper features mesh panels to provide you with exceptional levels of breathability to prevent feet from overheating and ensure you remain focused. The materials are moisture-wicking to help prevent an uncomfortable growth of moisture and sweat, even during more intense games. Not only this, but the shoes feature Mizuno's DynamotionFit technology, making the shoe feel as though it was specifically made for your foot. The technology adapts to your gait cycle, making it feel personalised. Finally, a traditional lacing system provides you with a secure, locked-in fit, helping to prevent in-shoe slipping from occurring.
PoWnCe and Mizuno ENERZY Midsole
Designed to provide comfort and protection, the midsole had been constructed using Mizuno's signature PoWnCe cushioning. PoWnCe offers excellent support and resilience properties, the lightweight construction ensures an abundance of cushioning underfoot that works to keep your feet comfy through any match. Additionally, this shoe utilises Mizuno's signature Wave technology which provides flexibility and support. The Wave absorbs shock without compromising comfort. The initial shock is then transferred back to guide you onto the next movement. The Wave prevents partial deformation and provides dynamic support to stabilise and propel the foot forward. Completing the midsole, Mizuno has incorporated a layer of ENERZY foam, this has been created to deliver a higher-than-ever energy return and softness helping you to power through training and matches to perform at your best.
X-10 Rubber Outsole
Developed to provide traction and grip, the X-10 outsole is the perfect addition to the Wave Leopardus. The X-10 outsole provides superb traction on the court for quick and dynamic movement whilst also increasing overall durability so you can continue with complete confidence. X-10 allows for longer wear in high-impact areas and provides more traction during heel strike so you'll always feel in complete control. Specifically engineered diagonal grooves known as D-Flex Grooves have been built into the midfoot area of the shoe to allow the player to turn at maximum speed and power by efficiently transferring natural body movement and change in direction.
