Y-3 2016 Spring/Summer Footwear Collection

Following multiple first looks at individual silhouettes from Y-3’s upcoming footwear collection, we have our first extensive overview of the entire Spring/Summer 2016 sneaker range from the mind of Yohji Yamamoto. The designer continues to balance avant-garde, fashion-oriented sneaker design with marketability that leads the adidas Originals main line, as evidenced by the heavy borrowing of Y-3 design language in the recent Tubular releases. Here, we have the new Kyujo silhouette first debuted at Paris Men’s Fashion Week in high- and low-top versions, followed by a familiar sight in the Qasa High in black and white colorways. Meanwhile, the Instapump-inspired Kohna Futuristic makes an appearance alongside the Boost QR Knit, with the Y-3 Primeknit Pure Boost rounding up the selection. Pre-order online now at Antonioli for delivery in March of next year.
