    Same fit as the Inspire 8 but the upper is more comfortable. They've shifted a couple of the eyelets and you can feel the extra support around the middle of the foot. Toe box is also cleaner, less seams so really soft around the toes.

    Definitely staying as my shoe of choice.

    cool. They are my runner of choice too.
    Do they feel lighter ?

    Do AK have the blue one's ?

    Weight is the same as the Inspire 8.

    After the 'hiccup' that was the Inspire 7 and Rider 14 Mizuno haven't made any serious modifications to these shoes. They feel more comfortable but run exactly the same.

    Blue with yellow and a white / grey in men's. Ladies have a charcoal colour. Livelier looking than previous models.

    Sorry, yep 22grams lighter. Very much offset by the weight I put on over Christmas so I didn't notice the shoe difference :)

    How does this compare to the Nike Lunarglide +3.
    Would both be a similar type of runner?

    How much are they in AK?

    i have no idea of comparisons to Nike. amphkingwest is the man to ask

    I've had Saucony, Asics, and NB and these are by far my favourite. On my third series of them now

    They are 110 in AK, but i'm not sure if thats the permanent price. Thats how much they were last week

    115 on a sale price in wiggle so €110 is a good price and buy Irish :D
