Y-3 2013 Fall/Winter Korey

Y-3 has already mastered the art of the hybrid, with the brand elegantly fusing sportswear with contemporary garb over the past few years. Oftentimes, this idea is expressed more casually, yet with the release of the Korey, Y-3 shows its more formal side. The Korey fuses a premium polished boot leather brogue upper with a sport-inspired outsole. The elevated appearance of the sole is caused by the tubular cushioning that shapes the bottom of the silhouette. Due to the shape of the cushions, the outsole is also relatively hollow, leaving space between the ground and the wearer’s foot. An interesting consideration of space, the Korey is sure to make a memorable impression when it hits the sidewalks. Look for the Korey on Y-3’s web store, available now for $410 USD.
