Photographed on the streets of London by Aleix Barau, Mizuno Sportstyle sets a new tone to kick off the year, placing the Wave Prophecy LS in an environment that feels far closer to street culture than the silhouette’s previously calmer settings.

The focus is an urban perspective that doesn’t use the city’s energy as mere decoration, but as the genuine context for a performance-driven look.

The two colorways stay deliberately classic in their palette, pairing a mesh-based upper with a glossy exoskeleton that wraps the shoe like a second layer.

Underfoot, the signature Infinity Wave tooling makes the silhouette’s futuristic character instantly recognizable.

The Wave Prophecy LS is a key silhouette within Mizuno Sportstyle, based on Yoshitaka Takahashi’s Wave Prophecy 8 Runner.

AIRmesh adds breathability to the progressive look and keeps the high-end performance foundation wearable in a street context.
