Last year, Mizuno gave us the Neo Vista, and it was yet another shoe that left me clamoring for Mizuno to just please release a shoe without a wave plate. So this year, that’s exactly what Mizuno did. This is the Neo Zen, and it just may mark the beginning of something really great from Mizuno. 0:00 intro 0:45 disclosures 1:06 specs 2:32 what's it like 4:50 Mizuno should make more shoes without wave plates 7:14 ASICS got rid of their plastic plates 8:02 On got rid of their plastic plates 8:49 Brooks got rid of motion control 9:25 New Balance got rid of motion control 10:32 Buying Guide 11:00 vs Mizuno Neo Vista 11:53 vs On Cloudsurfer Disclsoures: this is a pair of shoes that Mizuno provided for the purpose of review, so I did not have to pay for them. However, no one is paying me to make this video or to include their brand in this video. No one will have a chance to preview any of my footage or my thoughts before this video goes up on YouTube.
