The Y-3 DROP 4 and how it relates to Y-3’s origins

In the new Y-3 collection, adidas and Yohji Yamamoto re-interpreted some of their best designs to date. Get prepared for a collection full of timeless apparel and innovative footwear inspired by the beginnings of both brands.

As a first step of the design process, Yamamoto and adidas highlighted the three decades that were the most important to them – the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. Next came the re-imagining, adapting and editing of the silhouettes, changing their shapes, colors and materials. The connection between the the two is completed by utilising new adidas innovations while preserving Yamamoto’s iconic designs.

Check out our web store to see the footwear part of the collection. One of the models that should definitely grab your attention are the Y-3 KYOI TRAIL’s, which are inspired by track-running shoes. Thanks to the materials they use – heavy textile and a leather upper – they’re suitable for winter.
