Hot off the heels of unveiling its latest QISAN COZY and AJATU RUN silhouettes, the adidas Y-3 family is further advancing its footwear catalog with yet another model titled the Y-3 4D IOW Runner. The concept behind this latest piece is duality as it has the capability to switch between a mid-top and a low-top.

The offering is primarily manufactured from a breathable mesh material that forges its upper half and it comes packaged with a duo of modular neoprene inserts that allow wearers to go back and forth between its heights. Its foundation is sleek in style and bears a synthetic overlay that runs from the heels to the throat and down onto the forefoot and a suede panel parks itself out on the back end. Branding is found via monochromatic Y-3 hit on the mid-top insert as well as the lateral walls which host traditional adidas Y-3 branding in white.

Its cushioning system features a technical 4D midsole that’s only exposed at the forefoot on the lateral side. A tiny Three Stripes emblem also makes an appearance on the front end of the kicks.

Looking to cop? The Y3 4D IOW Runner is available to buy now at Aphrodite for £399 (approx. $555 USD).

Elsewhere in footwear news, the upcoming adidas YEEZY BOOST 700 V2 “Mauve” has been revealed.
