About Y-3
Y-3 is the label founded in 2003, when the Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto and the german sportswear label adidas joined forces to create a brand with a clear focus on design. The result is stylish collections including extraordinary pieces of all kinds that combine Yohji Yamamoto’s avant-garde aesthetics with adidas’ expertise in sports.
Y-3 is the embodiment of the sporty urban look. The outfits, shoes and accessories of the collaboration bring the innovative spirit of adidas to life in Yohji Yamamoto’s typical design language and thus reflect a progressive fashion vision for which both the sports brand and the designer stand. When it was founded in 2002, the label laid the foundation for an extraordinary new style mix: avant garde high fashion meets sportswear. Twenty years later, the Y-3 look has long since become unmistakable techwear: functional garments with a technical aesthetic and Yamamoto’s unique elegance and concise tailoring. The modern streetwear uniform, designed in Japanese and German ateliers and made for the world.
