Mizuno Wave Mujin TL GTX X Nonnative

Description:

The Mizuno Wave Mujin TL Mid GTX is the result of a collaboration between Mizuno, a renowned Japanese sporting goods brand, and nonnative, a Tokyo-based fashion label known for its modern approach to classic apparel. This partnership combines the technical expertise of Mizuno with the contemporary aesthetic of nonnative, creating a trainer that fuses rugged performance with urban style.

First introduced in Spring 2023, the Wave Mujin TL Mid GTX features a hybrid boot-like silhouette with a stretch knit upper that offers a snug fit. It features a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX membrane, providing protection from the elements. Pre-embossed suede details on the toe and heel add depth to the design, while the rubber sole, developed in collaboration with Michelin, ensures optimal traction thanks to multi-directional lugs.  

In November 2024, the collaboration introduced a new colourway called ‘Cognac’, featuring brandy tones that align with the autumn/winter 2024 nonnative palette, defined by shades of khaki, brown and black. This version was made available on 30 November 2024 at selected retailers, including COVERCHORD's online shop and physical shops in Nakameguro and Fukuoka, as well as on Mizuno's official website and at the nonnative shop.  

This collaboration represents a balance between technical functionality and modern design, offering footwear suitable for both outdoor and urban contexts, reflecting both companies' commitment to combining performance and style.
