Footwear imprint Mizuno prepares to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Wave Rider series with the brand new Wave Rider 10 trio of colorways. The lifestyle sneaker is ready for any occasion, made for running or day-to-day wearing.
The first of the three colorways starts off with a fusion of Cedar and Papyrus, which features shades of olive green across most of the upper as the darker hue covers the leather and suede overlaying details. The bright Papyrus hue can be seen detailing the mold at the end of the midsoles. This is followed by the Irongate and Light Rock colorway which has cool tones of blue. It is rounded out by Snow White and White, which is inspired by winter tonal palettes.
