Mizuno is a Japanese company founded in Osaka in 1906 by brothers Rihachi and Rizo Mizuno. From the outset, it has developed sports products with a constant aim: making the best possible equipment for the people using it. More than a century of research into movement, materials and performance has built a technical archive that now also inspires its Mizuno Sportstyle.

Sportstyle revives silhouettes from running and other sports for an urban setting. Rather than hiding their technical origins, Mizuno turns visible cushioning, layered panels, mesh, metallic finishes and proportions from different decades into design features. The result combines comfort, Japanese identity and an aesthetic connecting the sports archive with contemporary fashion.

ECRU’s Mizuno collection includes unisex models such as MXR, Wave Rider 10 and Wave Prophecy. Each family interprets the brand’s language differently, from MXR’s 2000s-inspired lines and visually light profile to Wave Prophecy’s more complex, futuristic construction.

Wave Rider 10 revisits a running shoe from the 2000s. It combines breathable mesh, synthetic reinforcements and a technical-looking midsole that retains the original model’s character. Grey, white, blue and soft colour combinations make it easy to wear daily, while the structure remains unmistakably sporty.

MXR takes references from Mizuno’s running archive and simplifies them into a versatile silhouette. Panels, silver details and contrasting colours reflect Y2K aesthetics without excess. It suits those seeking a visually lightweight sneaker that is easy to combine and retains the Japanese brand’s technical identity.

Wave Prophecy represents Sportstyle’s more experimental side. Its distinctive visible Wave structure creates a recognisable, sculptural profile. At ECRU you will find sneaker-inspired versions, Moc models with suede uppers and GORE‑TEX® membrane options designed for greater protection in wet conditions.
