FAQs

What is the primary inspiration for the Mizuno Maximizer trainers?

The Mizuno Maximizer trainers are inspired by the 2000s retro running aesthetic and are an extension of the world-renowned Wave Rider 10, aiming to bring Mizuno's quality and technicality to a wider audience.

Are these trainers suitable for serious running?

While they offer quality and technicality, the Maximizer is considered an entry-level silhouette and is best suited for casual wear and light activities rather than serious or high-intensity running.

What materials are used in the construction of the MXR?

The shoe features an authentic combination of materials, including silver overlays and white air mesh on the upper, with multiple rubber pieces on the tooling for durability and colour blocking.

How much do the trainers weigh?

The trainers weigh approximately 300 grams, making them relatively lightweight for comfortable all-day wear.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is flat.

How should I clean my Maximizer trainers?

Clean the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What type of closure system do these trainers use?

These trainers feature a lace-up closure system for a secure and adjustable fit.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming untied easily

Try double-knotting the laces. Alternatively, consider replacing them with laces that have a bit more grip.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration to allow the shoes to mold to your feet.

Mud or dirt accumulation on the sole

Use a soft brush or an old toothbrush to carefully remove dry dirt. For stubborn grime, a damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Simply lace them up to your preferred tightness using the provided laces.

Compatibility:

These are casual trainers suitable for adult males. They are designed for general wear and light activity.

Care:

  • Cleaning: For best results, clean the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the synthetic materials and mesh.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can deform the shoe.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain color and material integrity. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape when not in use.
