Mizuno is making serious moves this season with the arrival of the Wave Prophecy Morelia Neo — a fresh fusion of legacy football boots and futuristic running tech. This latest drop for FW25 brings together two of Mizuno’s most iconic silhouettes: the legendary Morelia boot from 1985 and the high-tech Wave Prophecy runner introduced in 2011.
The result? A street-ready sneaker that pays homage to Mizuno’s heritage while pushing bold new energy into the sneaker game.
Celebrating 40 years of the Morelia, Mizuno reimagines the classic K-leather boot into a lifestyle sneaker that still carries the soul of the pitch. The upper stays true to the original’s DNA with quilted panelling, sleek lines, and premium feel, while underneath, the Infinity Wave Plate system from the Prophecy series adds next-level comfort and attitude.
The sneaker made its debut during Paris Fashion Week, where Mizuno hosted an exclusive event and opened their first-ever showroom — a clear sign that the Wave Prophecy Morelia Neo is more than just a release, it’s a statement.
Backing the drop is a global campaign titled “The Game of Quebrada,” shot in São Paulo, Brazil — the spiritual home of street football. Creative leads Samir Bertoli and Fernanda Souza Corrêa spotlight the raw beauty of grassroots football, culture, and community, where the boot becomes more than a product — it’s a symbol of expression, resistance, and rhythm.
Whether you’re in it for the design, the history, or the streetwear flex, the Wave Prophecy Morelia Neo hits all angles.
The Mizuno Wave Prophecy Morelia Neo drops globally on Friday, 27th June 2025 in a sleek black colourway, retailing for $400 AUD. Available at Mizuno Australia online, Above the Clouds, and Up There Store.
Heritage meets heat. Football meets fashion. Mizuno just changed the game.
