Yohji Yamamoto’s Y-3 Reworks the adidas ZX Torsion

Release: 23 August 2019

Y-3, the name given to Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto’s ongoing partnership with adidas, has applied their typical avant-garde monochromatic styling to the new ZX Torsion silhouette. The signature touch is quite a literal one, with Yohji’s name on the lateral heel.

Featuring upgraded materials like waxed laces, leather-lined heel notches, and reinforced eyestay panels, the simple black and white colourway brings out all of the subtle design details.
