Showing no signs of slowing, Mizuno are back with their latest Kizuna launch. Dubbed the ‘Future Gardens’ pack, this set features a familiar trio of silhouettes including the Wave Rider 10, Wave Mujin TL and finally, the futuristic Wave Prophecy LS. 

With its title giving the game away, this pack is a homage to human beings and nature and the peaceful connection between the two. A subtle base of warm off-white tones are met with a punchy purple accent that celebrates the Ayame Iris Flower. Blooming across rural Japan this time of the year, the flower is feature across the trio, from the toe to the top of each pairs tongue.

To celebrate this launch, we worked with Brazilian based artist Arthur Ortega, someone you may be familiar with from the launch of Hart Copy’s first book. Painting traditional Japanese scenes, we tasked Arthur with creating futuristic worlds that celebrate Mizuno’s heritage, the Ayame Iris flower and of course, the Future Gardens pack.
