SHINZO PARIS X MIZUNO CONTENDER “From Paris to Tokyo”

A few weeks ago, I told you in an article (available HERE) about the collaboration between the Parisian retailer Shinzo and the Japanese brand Mizuno. A shoe to celebrate the French/Japanese friendship through the slogan « From Paris to Tokyo ».

Having had the chance to receive it and cut it myself at the new corner shop of Shinzo at the Samaritaine, I suggest you to discover it in pictures at my feet.

The pair is composed of a detachable corduroy base mixing brown and cream colors that recall the architecture and the Parisian savoir vivre. Once this top layer is removed, a light pink canvas fabric is revealed with a print representing the legendary cherry blossoms of Tokyo. The look is completed by the shop’s name « SHINZO » printed in hiragana (one of the 4 Japanese scripts) on the heel of the white midsole. The side Run Bird is presented in bright blue velvet and it also appears as a tonal embroidered logo at the heel when the first layer is removed. The whole is based on a tri-color blue, pink and white outsole that harmoniously finalizes the design.

I validate in 100% this collaboration that I found extraordinary once cut. Indeed, to be able to appropriate a pair by cutting it, by burning it… to your taste, represents for me a real luxury. So I had a lot of fun in order to get a singular pair of shoes, even exclusive and unique. Congratulations to the teams of Shinzo Paris and Mizuno for this beautiful project ! An advice, don’t sleep on it.
