That I cant say for sure, as I have never tried the Mizano shoes, There is one Japanese Manufacturer that sells exactly the same shoes at twice the price.
I haven't had One complaint in the time I've been selling them, I get praise all the time.

One thing I can say for sure, is that since I started using them, I haven;t rolled my ankle once, yet before it was a weekly occurance. Give them a go, you wont be disappointed.

Thats what I said at first, but I quite like them now. No one's made made any comments about the colour. Infact I sell more of the Saviga Runners now, that the plain White ones.

Silver I have the Savigas and I think they are worth twice the price they cost (but don't go hiking up the price Rob! LOL). Now I'd never seen these shoes before but since buying them I have seen at least 5 others players in them. Now for the fact half of them were Rob's family probably shouldn't matter, in fact it shows he stands behind (well IN actually  :lol: ) the product he sells. But I don't think you'll be disappointed in them. And they come with a top-notch little bag that keeps them fresh. Just don't wear socks that are too thin in the early stages as they might rub at the back a little. But with thicker socks this is not a problem, and it wears in anyway. Oh and they are really light on the feet too, so they let you move (or if you're like me with a knee injury that doesn't allow much movement, they give good support between you and the floor LOL).

Seems like this wave drive 2 design gets around.

Donic sells it badged as the Waldner Flex.
Tibhar sells it as the Contact Light.

I would love to have some table tennis shoes. Just my feet are too big for the sizes. I take USA12 (46.5 EU). I see the Donic Mega Flex goes upto the bigger sizes. How about width of the shoe. My feet are a bit wide too and have problems with some running shoes with the width being too tight.

A friend of mine in the States just bought some Mega Flex In EEE width and about same size as you. I can try to find out where he got them if you like. I know it was online. Could have been Paddle Palace even.

I got some Asics cross traininers that work for me just right. I'll buy out the TT shops of all their gear once I get into millionaire status. (wait a couple decades on that one folks.)

SB I feel your pain bro.  I wear US 15's.  I think they are +50 Eur.  There is no such size for a table tennis shoe.  I have however learned that both Indoor Volleyball, and Indoor Soccer shoes translate very well for table tennis.  They are both slightly heavier, but both are a little more durable, and supportive.
