Mizuno Unveils the New Weatherized Wave Mujin GTX Sneaker
Japanese footwear brand Mizuno introduces a new iteration of the classic Wave Mujin silhouette with the new Wave Mujin TL GTX to join its roster. The shoe is familiar with new durable accents which are notably seen at the upper, replacing the usual leather build with a technical thermo-transfer layering process. It complements the ripstop mesh base along with more accents in the form of synthetic leather.
A GORE-TEX coating gives the shoe weatherized abilities and the brand works together with Michelin to finish the outsole with rubber detailing. Falling in the footsteps of the brand's SS24 Sportstyle capsule dubbed Down to Earth, the capsule comes in three neutral colorways and vibrant options inspired by the hues found in nature.
