Weight measurement and plate details
- Weight note
- Mizuno Japan official product page lists approx. 300g per shoe at 27.0cm.
- Plate note
- Mizuno Japan identifies a plant-based Pebax Rnew Wave plate. Arkema defines Pebax Rnew as a polyether block amide; this is a non-carbon polymer structure, not an absence of a plate.
