Product description:
The Mizuno Wave Prophecy Ring Moc in Black and Light Grey is a highly considered and collectible collaboration between Mizuno and Setsumasa Kobayashi, the visionary designer behind Mountain Research and General Research, released June 2026. This is not merely a sneaker but a carefully constructed philosophical object, the culmination of a creative conversation between Mizuno and Kobayashi that began in 2007 with the revolutionary Infinity Moc, a shoe that first fused the traditional moccasin silhouette with the structural thinking of a performance running brand. The Wave Prophecy Ring Moc inherits that DNA directly and reconstructs it for the present day as a definitive expression of Mizuno Sports Style. The classic moccasin upper is crafted from premium short-pile suede leather with a breathable Sky Medal-derived mesh inner lining in a precise double construction that sits quietly sophisticated against the bold engineering beneath it. At the midfoot, the signature ring strap with velcro side adjustment holds the foot in its natural position with a considered and precise fit. Underfoot sits the iconic Wave Prophecy hollow-structure sole, an engineering achievement that masterfully reconciles stability and cushioning while minimising midsole compression over years of wear. A symbolic Anarcho Mountaineers A-mark at the heel completes the design. Kobayashi's lifelong aesthetic philosophy of timelessness is embodied in every detail of this shoe. Made in Vietnam.
