INTRODUCTION

The Elixir 6 is a moderate feature, minimum support shoe that is designed for speedwork, racing and daily training. It is built with a semi-curved shape.

CUSHIONING

Mizuno Wave consists of an elastic, thermal plastic wave running from the heel to the midfoot, creating an incredibly springy and well-cushioned ride.

MIDSOLE

AP+ is Mizuno's top of the line full-length copolymer midsole for a lighter, more resilient ride.
Smooth Ride is a gender specific network of grooves that minimizes the rapid acceleration and deceleration of the foot to create a smooth heel to toe ride.

UPPER

AIRmesh covers the entire upper and provides breathability to keep the foot cool.
Standard Sockliner provides underfoot comfort.
Dynamotion Fit creates optimal fit with stretch material in the forefoot and a collar construction that prevents the heel collar from buckling under load.

OUTSOLE

X10 located in the heel and forefoot is made of durable carbon rubber for enhanced traction.
G3 Sole is a lightweight rubber dot pattern in the forefoot for increased grip and flexibility.
