Limited Edition Sneakers Inspired by Vermeer

Discover the unique collaboration between Mizuno and the Rijksmuseum, inspired by Johannes Vermeer and his masterpiece, The Milkmaid. As a tribute to the Vermeer exhibition, Mizuno proudly presents the Contender and Wave Rider 27, two limited edition sneakers that combine art with lifestyle.

Mizuno Contender Vermeer

The Contender Vermeer is a true treasure for Vermeer enthusiasts and sneaker lovers. The design of this shoe is infused with subdued and subtle colors, showcasing an eye for the smallest details of the beautiful painting. The blue fabric of The Milkmaid and the Delft blue tiles with cupids are delicately incorporated into the shoe's design. Even the tongue of the sneaker is printed with the famous artwork, paying homage to this masterpiece. Additionally, the insoles feature a stunning representation of the painting's details, such as the slowly flowing milk and the dazzling colors of The Milkmaid.
