Discounted Mizuno volleyball shoes

Wave Momentum, the Mizuno for solid support

The Wave Momentum is the most common model in the selection. Its Wave plate and wide sole aim for stability upon landing. A Dynamotion Fit upper wraps around the foot, and a Dura Shield reinforcement protects the toe from rubbing against the floor, a real plus for setters and defenders who drag their feet while diving. It is also available in a women's cut.

Wave Lightning and Wave Luminous, for attackers

The Wave Lightning is the light and fast family from Mizuno. The Lightning Elite Mid adds a high upper that supports the ankle, targeting wing players, outside hitters, and setters. The Wave Luminous Elite, another lightweight model, is aimed at players looking for speed and good grip on the court. The Lightning Z and Lightning Select complete this part of the range.

Wave Voltage, Cyclone Speed, Thunder Blade: entry-level options

Not everyone needs a competition shoe. The Wave Voltage, Cyclone Speed, and Thunder Blade embody the spirit of Wave models in a simpler construction, designed for recreational players and kids discovering volleyball in clubs. A few models are available in junior sizes, identifiable with the age filter.

Wave Stealth and Wave Mirage, for lateral support

The Wave Mirage and the Wave Stealth Elite utilize the Wave plate in a design made for handball, focused on lateral support and quick starts. In volleyball, they work very well for recreational players and those who do a lot of defending.

Which Mizuno for which position

The setter and defender benefit from the stability of the Wave Momentum. The attacker who jumps a lot looks for the lightness of the Wave Lightning or the Wave Luminous. To start out or play recreationally, the Wave Voltage is more than enough. To keep only the court models, filter by volleyball sport.

Is a high upper necessary to play volleyball?

It's not mandatory. A high upper like that of the Lightning Elite Mid supports the ankle when landing from blocks, especially after a sprain. A low upper offers more freedom and is the choice of many players.

What is the purpose of the reinforcement on the toe of a volley shoe?

It protects the upper when the foot rubs against the floor, in low defense or when the setter stretches to reach a ball. Without it, the toe is often the first area to wear out.
