Duane Vermeulen and the Mizuno Wave Ignitus II
Abrasive Springbok loose-forward Duane Vermeulen sported Mizuno Wave Ignitus IIs as he contributed to his sides comfortable win over the injury-ravaged Wallabies in Pretoria on the weekend.
Mizuno’s ‘Power’ boot, the Wave Ignitus II boasts a kangaroo leather upper, creating an incredibly comfortable fit on a boot which is both durable and robust yet lightweight.
The Pebax heel counter provides additional support and protection, and enhances a player’s ability to explode in to action, while strategically positioned moulded blades are perfectly suited to a wide variety of natural surfaces.
It has been a break-out season for the Stormers’ loosie, who made his test debut against Australia in Perth in the Rugby Championship, earning selection when Springbok coach Heneke Meyer came under fire for his sides’ inability to dominate at the breakdown, an area so important to South African rugby.
