Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
The exact Mizuno Europe men's product page lists310g without a sample size. The women's Hong Kong page is not used for the representative men's weight.
Plate note
The exact manufacturer release describes Foam Wave as different-hardness materials combined in wave shapes; the exact Hong Kong base-model page corroborates the foam construction and CORE/ENERZY FOAM layers. Complete exact construction evidence identifies no carbon structure, supporting the retained false classification without claiming that the shoe has no Wave structure.
