A First Look at the Hyperwarp Elite
Upper: Light, Breathable, and Race-Ready
The Hyperwarp Elite features a breathable monofilament woven upper designed to securely wrap the foot without adding unnecessary weight. It stays structured even at fast paces while allowing airflow to keep your feet cool during long, intense efforts.
Midsole & Outsole: Dual-Density Power + Carbon Propulsion
Mizuno introduces MIZUNO ENERZY XP, a dual-density foam system combining:
-
PEBA top layer — ultra-bouncy, lightweight, and highly cushioned
-
TPEE bottom layer — more responsive and durable for long-lasting propulsion
The result is Mizuno’s lightest-ever midsole, delivering a balanced blend of cushioning, stability, and powerful energy return.
To amplify this, the shoe uses the SMOOTH SPEED PLATE (SSP)—a 3D-shaped carbon plate that supports the midfoot through the heel, promoting efficient turnover and a snappy transition at race pace.
Underfoot, the G3 outsole keeps weight low while improving traction, making each stride feel secure and efficient without sacrificing speed.
