Mizuno Sportstyle kicks off the year by throwing its most futuristic runner straight into the heart of the city. The Wave Prophecy LS ‘Street Racers’ editorial signals a sharp shift in energy for the brand, swapping calm, controlled environments for the raw movement of London’s streets.
Captured by photographer Aleix Barau, the story taps into a new-age, culture-aware consumer, one drawn to the noise, friction and adrenaline of street life. Think fuel, rubber and fumes, all distilled into one of Mizuno’s most striking silhouettes.
Sun-Dried Tomato (D1GA333706) / Salute (D1GA333707)

Arriving in two classically tuned yet high-impact colourways, the Wave Prophecy LS balances heritage performance with bold, forward-facing design. The Sun-Dried Tomato, Barbados Cherry and Black option leans into heat and intensity, while the Salute, Navy Blazer and Black iteration delivers a cooler, more understated take without losing its edge. Both pairs feature a classic mesh-panelled upper for breathability, wrapped in a glossy exoskeleton that adds structure and a distinctly futuristic feel.
Underfoot sits Mizuno’s signature Infinity Wave tooling, a defining element that not only sets the shoe apart visually but also reinforces its performance DNA. Originally based on Yoshitaka Takahashi’s Wave Prophecy 8 runner, the LS version borrows heavily from Mizuno’s louder back catalogue, refining it into a high-end sportstyle statement. AIRmesh construction ensures airflow and comfort, making the silhouette as functional as it is visually arresting.

Set against London’s concrete jungle, the Wave Prophecy LS feels completely at home. The editorial’s movement-led approach highlights how seamlessly the shoe transitions from performance origins to street-level relevance, carving out space in a landscape dominated by conscious, style-driven consumers.
