Mizuno Wave Creation 8

'TOP QUALITY... BUT...'
Strengths:
Cushioning = probably THE best shoe o the market I think... better than anything ASICS currently offers who are my other current top make.

Feel When Moving = Motion from heel to toe is exceptional, feel like it's properlling you forward as opposed to them simply sitting on your feet.

Looks = Insane, but not embaressing...
Weaknesses:
The heel stability = This has caused me amassive blister, as the heel is very "tight", and with them not being very flexible, it is something I need to sort out next time I run. Apart form that, no dodgy blisters around the forefoot so spot on.

Expensive!!! WAYYY TOOO EXPENSIVE!!!
Overall:
I've owned, Creation 5's and 6's (missed the boat on 7's)... and will say that they're the comfiest trainers I've ever had.

I'd say they could do with reducing ever so slightly the sixe of the toe end, as there seems a large amount of space there... and need to make thsi heel support slightly less intrussive (thus reducing rubbing on the inner heel)...

Overall, a top shoe... one of the best!

'GREAT... BUT DOESN'T FIT NICELY....'
Strengths:
Accurate, funky and more modern than last version...

Got every feature I would want..
Weaknesses:
Piss poor signal... I've had to wait upto 4 minutes in the rain to get a signal... even with latest firmware update, still slow...
Overall:
Slightly disappointed with the performance of the signal... doens't loose much, however, trying to "locate satalittes" is a joke sometimes...

I'm certainly glad I've got one, but literally for the distance and extras...
