Any thoughts on Mizuno Exceed Light?

[1HFH]

Curious about the Mizuno Exceed Lights. I think the Maui Blue (aqua to me) looks cool. I've read that they aren't the most durable or stable, but for my personal preference, cushion and maneuverability are more important. I like a nimble, comfortable shoe. I'm don't easily wear out shoes - not a slider or even really an aggressive mover.

Anyone have any experience with these shoes?

Also: I've noticed on other sites that the design of the Maui Blue color looks slightly different than the other colors (the tongue is different, possibly the tox box is slimmer(?)) Anyone notice that too?

I recommend the Mizuno Exceed Tour 5. It is a light shoe, about the same weight as the Exceed Light, but better cushioning, and with a 6-month warranty.

Same soles I think just different not-as-solid uppers.

Oh I thought the cushioning in the Exceed Tours was very minimal. It was noted on the Exceed Light that the cushioning is really good. If it's the same, I'll pass.

Thanks guys

My only pair of Exceed Lights were heavier than my Tours.

Strange. Which pair do you think has better cushioning?

Yea, I think “light” refers to the features/technology rather than the weight. TW has the weight of the two pretty much the same. 331g vs 330g for the lights

Pretty equal, I would guess. If you're looking for cushion, the new Wave Enforce has the most out of the three, albeit at a weight penalty.
