[Editor's Picks] Mizuno’s “WAVE MEDAL 8 BOA” debuts in a new colorway: “BRIGHT SIDE PACK”

Let’s Move in Shoes as Radiant as the Sun!

Here comes a pair of shoes that shines like the blazing sun. From Mizuno, the new colorway of the WAVE MEDAL 8 BOA, released in summer 2026, is a striking pair with a passionate orange-and-yellow color scheme.

 This design, named the “BRIGHT SIDE PACK,” is a major project tied in with other sports such as volleyball, tennis, soft tennis, and handball. The concept of inspiring the spirit of athletes who keep taking on new challenges reveals Mizuno’s essence as a comprehensive sports manufacturer.

▼The Mizuno symbol, the Runbird mark, placed on the outside of the upper, features an orange-to-yellow gradient that strongly boosts the player’s fighting spirit.

▼The outsole, which extends up to the lower part of the upper, is also decorated in an orange-and-yellow camouflage pattern, giving off an energy reminiscent of the sun’s magma.

 The dial-type BOA® Fit System not only lets you freely adjust how tightly the shoe fits, but also helps improve cushioning and grip through its excellent fit. It also comes with features that deliver scientifically proven performance advantages, including speed and stability, achieving a high level of both convenience and functionality.
