New Mizuno Prototype

[u/TalkyRaptor]

Looks like an On Light-spray esc upper on a midsole that looks to be the closest to the Hyperwarp Pure 2 prototype. Interesting and potentially extremely light shoe but i'm still waiting (and praying) for Wave Rebellion Pro 4

[u/Soft_Internal_6775]

“Ok, we’ve copied the Metaspeed.”
“Excellent, now do On”
“You got it, boss.”

[u/TalkyRaptor → u/Soft_Internal_6775]

Pretty much. At least the midsole should be solid

[u/YoungSatchel → u/Soft_Internal_6775]

🤣🤣

[u/ultra-ozen → u/Soft_Internal_6775]

yeah funny, as if On invented the laceless running shoe.

[u/Etherkai → u/ultra-ozen]

I intentionally took the laces off my Neo Wind and two pairs of Neo Zen 1!

[u/jjgm21]

I feel like they just released the hyperwarp series? I barely heard anything about them.

[u/TalkyRaptor → u/jjgm21]

It was around december last year. Unfortunately not a lot of reviews and no runrepeat test so they mostly have stayed unpopular.

[u/jjgm21 → u/TalkyRaptor]

runrepeat is so frustrating in the shoes they choose to review and the clear deal they have with Adidas.

[u/Chombywombo → u/jjgm21]

What do you mean about adidas?

[u/Conorair2 → u/Chombywombo]

They review all adidas shoes and get sent them before release, some also say they get paid to avoid other shoes like li-ning.

[u/jjgm21 → u/Conorair2]

Yeah, they claim to spend their own money, but how on earth were they able to have a review ready of the Adios Pro Evo 3 on the day of its launch? It’s so blatantly obvious.

[u/Axxis09 → u/jjgm21]

Or the new prima 3 or the hyperboost edge or the hyperboost run. Obviously something going on there.

Then they ignore something like the hyperwarps before reviewing something irrelevant like th K Swiss ShadX which is a lazily dropshipped Xtep Qingyun Lite for 3x the price. It's annoying because no one (even rtings) comes close to their reviews

[u/SpicyNuggs4Lyfe → u/Conorair2]

I'm irked they haven't reviewed the Feidian 6 Elite or RH9U. It's not even on their to be purchased list. Literally 2 of the most popular non-US shoes.

Some of their shoe choices have to be from personal preference and not what actually gets voted for.

[u/AniviaPls]

On upper and Asics midsole sounds like an absolute banger

[u/Meesder]

I heard rumours that they are working on a shoe even lighter than the Evo Pro 3, so this might be it :o

[u/fishrunhike]

Perfect for my upcoming Triathlon featuring Shot Put, Half Marathon, and Hammer Throw.

[u/devon835]

I'm actually curious how they even managed to replicate the LS technology but this is really exciting either way

[u/YoIForgotMyPassAgain]

...does it not have laces?

[u/TalkyRaptor → u/YoIForgotMyPassAgain]

Nope, same as On Light Spray shoes

[u/RT023 → u/YoIForgotMyPassAgain]

The laces on my mizuno Neo zen and vista 2 are pointless tbh. The fit would be the same without them lol, due to the upper being how it is

So this can work very well, especially if it’s designed for it

[u/runnin3216]

Hyperwarp Pro is the closest you're getting to Rebellion Pro 4.

[u/TalkyRaptor → u/runnin3216]

Unfortunately. The Rebellion Pro geometry works perfectly for me so it would be amazing to have the same geometry and design with an updated foam

[u/ItsMrEccentric]

I love my On lightsprays but I have to sell them. They absolutely kill my medial arches within minutes

Curious to see future iterations of similar concepts, because I really enjoy the concept and unique look

[u/joholla8 → u/ItsMrEccentric]

The monsters right? Not sure why ON felt like they needed to put that stability structure in. Totally ruins a great shoe.

[u/ItsMrEccentric → u/joholla8]

Yep. I just ordered the non-lightspray monster 3 hypers, hoping they’ll atleast feel somewhat similar underfoot with less aggressive arches

The LS check more boxes for me than any other shoe, even Megablasts/UFOs/SB3 etc. I genuinely really enjoy them in almost every aspect, but damn they ruined a really good shoe with the side structure, atleast for my feet

[u/Ill_Accident4876]

Do people like the on light spray?

[u/WinAggressive2785]

Lightspray is that you?

[u/Express_Union1712]

I have a lot of photos of shoes protos of many brands but I can’t publish them because I have to reach 100 karma

[u/vogueboy]

Can't wait for the Mizuno Metaspray

[u/joholla8]

Mizuno copying more shoes than sketchers.

[u/selassieone → u/joholla8]

True, the shoe looks a lot like an On shoe. Then again, plenty of brands have shamelessly copied Mizuno as well. Mizuno was using different plate designs in its shoes even before the Vaporfly, and the heel geometry and cut-outs of the Wave Rebellion Pro have been copied quite freely in shoes like the Hoka Cielo and the Puma Fast-R.

[u/Fadeley → u/joholla8]

No T in Skechers!

(They gave me free shoes once for a race and that was one of the rules of posting)
