Product Highlights:

The Mizuno Neo Zen 2 is a highly cushioned daily trainer with enough softness to tackle longer runs, and enough bounce in each step to spring through faster workouts. It's a jack-of-all-trades shoe that emphasizes Mizuno's ENERZY NXT foam, a nitrogen-infused EVA compound that delivers exceptional bounce and energy return. With extra emphasis on one-directional, forward bounce, Mizuno's SMOOTH SPEED ASSIST technology ensures you glide forward with ease.

Mizuno is staying consistent with everything that felt so great about the underfoot feel of the original Neo Zen, while addressing the minor fit issues we had with the upper. It's still a one-piece sock-fit upper, aiming to provide a secure, universal fit for many different foot types. But this time, an adjusted tailoring of the tongue area, plus some additional padding in the heel, mean this snugger version retains its shape better for increased confidence and inherent stability.

Whatever the goal of your next run, the Mizuno Neo Zen 2 offers a fun running experience that stands out from the daily training pack for its superior comfort and performance.
