Adidas and the renowned designer Yohji Yamamoto have once again collaborated to unveil their latest masterpiece, the Y-3 Gendo sneaker line. This collection seamlessly combines cutting-edge design with bold aesthetics, offering two captivating variations: the Y-3 Gendo Superstar and the Y-3 Gendo Pro Model. The debut of this collaboration occurred on the Yohji Yamamoto runway, pushing the boundaries of design by exploring the concept of negative space and elevation.
At the core of the Y-3 Gendo line is a fully hollowed-out TPU plate, originally created by Adidas’ innovation team for performance midsoles. When combined with the iconic Superstar model, it results in an expressive and dynamic form that perfectly embodies the fusion of Yohji Yamamoto’s artistic vision and the iconic Three Stripes’ aesthetics. These sneakers also feature a premium leather upper, highlighting Adidas’ rich heritage.
In contrast, the Y-3 Gendo Pro Model features a high-top pro model upper and introduces a striking zip closure in place of the conventional lacing system.
Fashion enthusiasts can acquire the Y-3 Gendo Superstar and the Y-3 Gendo Pro Model starting from October 21. These exceptional sneakers will be available for purchase at Yohji Yamamoto’s boutiques, the official Adidas website, the Confirmed app, select in-store locations, and through chosen retailers worldwide.
This collaboration is set to redefine sneaker design, blending innovation and aesthetics to create a footwear experience like no other. Explore the Y-3 Gendo collection for a unique fusion of style and innovation.
