Fall just got cooler and drier with these fresh drops.
Whether you are running errands, grabbing coffee or heading for a weekend hike, these kicks can handle it all. Mizuno’s trail runner and KEEN’s collab with bal deliver the perfect mix of function, comfort and style.
Mizuno Wave Mujin LS GTX “Dark Brown”
Mizuno is keeping the trail-to-town energy alive with the Wave Mujin LS GTX “Dark Brown.” The silhouette, originally built for rugged terrain, has been remixed into an urban-ready runner that looks just as good on city streets as it does on light trails.
This release pairs dark brown suede with lighter brown and black overlays, creating a rich earth-toned palette that’s perfect for fall fits. The GORE-TEX membrane ensures your feet stay dry while still breathing, making it ideal for Malaysia’s sudden downpours or weekend hiking trips.
Underfoot, a Vibram Megagrip outsole keeps you steady on slick pavements, and Mizuno’s Enerzy midsole brings a plush, responsive ride for all-day wear. Add in the brand’s full-length WAVE tech for stability, and you’ve got a shoe that blends comfort, style, and trail-tested performance.
The Mizuno Wave Mujin LS GTX “Dark Brown” is priced at ¥25,300 JPY (~RM800) and is available now at Mizuno stores and online.
KEEN x bal HIGHTRAIL SP WP
KEEN is stepping into Tokyo street style with its first-ever collab with bal, delivering a fresh take on the HIGHTRAIL SP WP sneaker. This limited-edition pair takes KEEN’s rugged trail DNA and infuses it with bal’s cool, minimalist vibe, all wrapped in a crisp “Vapor” colorway.
Built for city adventurers who don’t mind a little rain, the HIGHTRAIL SP WP features KEEN.DRY waterproof tech to keep your feet dry without sacrificing breathability. The upper mixes suede and performance mesh for a look that’s both functional and elevated, while the quick-lace bungee cords make it a slip-on-and-go situation.
Underfoot, the high-cushion sole unit ensures plush comfort with every step, while the low-profile silhouette keeps things sleek enough for café hopping or evening walks. It’s a shoe that blurs the line between outdoor gear and everyday sneaker.
With its limited production and selective release, this drop is a collector’s piece for anyone who loves performance gear with a streetwear edge.
The KEEN x bal HIGHTRAIL SP WP “Vapor” will retail for ¥20,900 JPY (~RM900) and will be available in stores starting 20rh September, with online sales opening 22nd September via KEEN and bal’s official sites.
