Even though it is a Japanese brand, Mizuno’s approach to shoe sizing is quite consistent with other major athletic brands, especially in running shoes.
However, it’s not guaranteed that your accustomed shoe size will work in every single Mizuno shoe as the differences in lasts, upper materials, and toebox shapes can affect the size and fit.
To help you figure out the most accurate Mizuno size, we highly recommend measuring your feet and consulting the chart below.
