RB-LINE is a Japanese lifestyle sneaker line that Mizuno launched in 2016 as one collection within its new “Sports Style” category for the sports-casual market.

Using the company logo RUNBIRD, the line offers models that reinterpret shoes for athletes and classic designs released in the 1980s for modern urban wear. Its lineup includes GV87, RS88, and WAVE RIDER, and it is still available through Mizuno’s official online store.

A sneaker line that carries forward the RB Collection launched when MIZUNO SPORTSTYLE was established. It uses the Runbird, Mizuno’s current symbol, as its visual centerpiece, reworking running shoes and track and field shoes developed from the 1980s through the 1990s, along with recent performance models, for everyday wear. Its lineup includes WAVE RIDER, WAVE PROPHECY, WAVE MUJIN, and MXR, and it also collaborates with sneaker boutiques and fashion brands. In contrast to MLC, which centers on the former M logo and classic, slim designs, this line foregrounds Mizuno’s current logo and athletic technologies.
