Not for all of them, there are at least one model that have most sizes in stock. And there are no “regular” size for shoes , just numbers…. Regular for you isn’t necessarily regular for others.
I have a pair of Wave Drive 7s, they seem entirely flat to me. Be aware that the larger sizes (which of course are more in demand in European and US markets than in Japan itself) do seem to come up rather larger than you might expect.I have the same problem. Would like to buy Mizuno Wave Drive in 11,5 US (45 EU) because people say they have a wide toe box. Btw, do anyone know about how much height difference there is between heel and toe, if there is any? I would like table tennis shoes with zero drop, aka no height difference.
So they say, but i wonder if people say this because they have a wide toebox. I have wide feet, I like to run in wide nodrop shoes like altras and this gives me more balance because my feet has been given the room to splay out over the years.I have a pair of Wave Drive 7s, they seem entirely flat to me.

Wouldnt this be expensive because you need to pay a toll charge?
It can be if you're in Europe yea.Wouldnt this be expensive because you need to pay a toll charge?
edit: nvm, they dont have my size (45 EU)
Not really. I asked the supplier's advice before I bought mine, stating that I wear thick socks, and they advised me to buy a half-size larger than normal. My toes don't reach the end of the shoe and I sometimes trip myself up by stepping on the vacant area with the other foot as I'm moving sideways !! On the other hand the shoes do not move from side to side at all and are very stable. The Wave Drives are not wide shoes but they are definitely long.So they say, but i wonder if people say this because they have a wide toebox.

I have the same problem with Wave Kaiserburgs. Went maybe half a size too big from my usual and there is way too much space in toebox despite having put in an extra insole and heel inserts.Not really.
