Y-3

Y-3 is a high-fashion collaboration between Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto and adidas, established in 2002. The label redefined the relationship between sportswear and luxury fashion by blending Yamamoto’s avant-garde tailoring with adidas’ technical innovation. Known for its monochromatic palettes, flowing silhouettes, and futuristic detailing, Y-3 embodies the perfect balance between performance and artistic expression.

The “Y” stands for Yohji Yamamoto, the “3” represents adidas’ iconic three stripes, and the dash symbolizes the link between design and sport. Each collection features an exploration of form and movement, using premium fabrics and experimental structures to create pieces that are both functional and sculptural.

Over two decades later, Y-3 remains a cornerstone of modern fashion innovation—celebrated for its minimalism, precision, and ability to merge streetwear with runway aesthetics. It continues to push creative boundaries while honoring the shared philosophy of freedom, craftsmanship, and motion.
