One-Piece Soft Knit Upper Designed to provide breathable, adaptive comfort, the Neo Vista 2 features a premium one-piece knit upper that wraps the foot securely. Strategically placed ventilation zones allow for excellent airflow, helping to keep your feet cool and dry even during intense runs. The flexible knit delivers a sock-like fit that conforms naturally to your foot shape, reducing excess movement and offering quick, easy entry when you’re on the go. Targeted tension throughout the upper ensures a snug midfoot hold while offering room in the forefoot for natural toe splay. A supportive heel counter enhances lockdown and stability without compromising on comfort. The integrated tongue and seamless design reduce friction and irritation, while the traditional lace-up system reinforces midfoot security. A handy heel loop makes it easy to slip the shoes on and off with minimal effort. Mizuno Enerzy NXT Midsole The midsole features Mizuno’s all-new nitrogen-infused Enerzy NXT foam, engineered for a lighter, more cushioned ride with enhanced responsiveness. Positioned at the top layer of the midsole, this advanced foam offers soft landings and energised take-offs, keeping you feeling fresh across long miles. It’s Mizuno’s softest and most efficient foam yet, designed to absorb impact and return energy so you can go further with less fatigue. Supporting this is Mizuno’s Smooth Speed Assist, a system designed to optimise your gait cycle, reduce strain on muscles, and promote efficient transitions. At the core of the midsole sits Mizuno’s iconic Wave Plate, made from glass-fibre reinforced nylon, which offers stability and a lively toe-off without compromising cushioning. More forgiving than carbon and stiffer than TPU, it strikes a perfect balance for fast-paced daily runs. X10 Outsole Providing reliable traction on a variety of road surfaces, the X10 outsole uses Mizuno’s durable carbon rubber compound for long-lasting grip and wear resistance. Positioned strategically in high-impact zones, especially around the lateral heel, this tough rubber enhances durability during heel strikes and supports smooth transitions. The outsole of the Neo Vista 2 has been updated with improved grip compared to its predecessor, ensuring confident footing throughout your run. Flex grooves and flex controllers in the forefoot work together to encourage natural motion and deliver an efficient, powerful stride from start to finish.
