Stable and durable shoes for competitive players, that are also superbly comfortable.
The Mizuno Wave Enforce Tour 2 takes what players loved about the first version (comfort and stability) and adds some key improvements that help to increase the support, and make for even more comfort! Now featuring ENERZY NXT in the midsole, the underfoot cushioning feels even more responsive while also keeping you light and quick on your feet. The combination of the Mizuno Wave technology and the outrigger outsole helps to give you a more stable ride for those explosive lateral cuts at the baseline. Based on player feedback from the first generation, Mizuno implements the Dyna-Heel Lock Lite to improve the support around the ankles, with plush padding that delivers a more secure fit. A reconfigured upper design, not only adds a nice look to these shoes, but helps to improve the durability that competitive players need out on the tour; or in your local league. Mizuno's signature DuRubber outsole holds up strong to the gritty hardcourts, and provides a nice balance of traction and sliding capabilities for the modern hardcourt slider.
- Upper: Lightweight 3-D Solid upper provides a comfortable fit, durability, and breathability. Internal sleeve connected to the tongue supplies great comfort and a glove-like fit. Dyna-Heel Lock Lite for a more secure fit and support around the ankles, and adds plush padding on the ankle collar.
- Midsole: Enerzy NXT next generation of enerzy midsole cushioning for increased energy return and extra plushness. PoWnCe offer lightweight, and responsive cushioning. Mizuno Wave enhances lateral stability of the shoe, and with shock absorption; disperses energy more evenly upon foot-strike.

All CourtAll Court
All-court (AC) tennis shoes are designed for use on a variety of different court surfaces, such as hard, clay, and grass courts. These shoes typically have a durable outsole with a multi-surface tread pattern that provides traction and stability. All-court tennis shoes are a good choice for players who play on a variety of different court surfaces and need a shoe that can adapt to different conditions.

ClayClay
Clay court shoes are designed specifically for use on clay courts. They typically have a herringbone pattern on the outsole, which provides extra traction and grip on the soft, slippery surface of the court. This can help players move more easily and confidently on the court and can also help to prevent injuries caused by slipping or losing balance.

CarpetCarpet
Carpet shoes are characterized by a non-marking and smooth outsole without any pattern for traction and durability. These shoes can only be played on smooth surfaces, without any granules on the court. If you are looking for a shoe to play indoors with granules, we would suggest an all court or clay court outsole.

GrassGrass
Grass Court shoes feature "nubs" on the outsole, which are reminiscent of a cleat-like-shoe for a better grip. Unlike all court/hard court shoes, these cannot be used on any other surfaces except on omni/artificial grass courts.
