The Wave Hitogami 2 Running Shoe from Mizuno is a sleek, low-profile shoe that makes you want to run fast and eat up the miles. Despite all that, it's surprisingly stable and supportive thanks to the U4ic midsole and Parallel Wave support plate. Airmesh synthetic uppers keep your feet nice and cool from start to finish, and X10 carbon rubber soles ensure that you won't face-plant the next time you hit a patch of ice.
