Y's x adidas announces Japan-exclusive capsule collection, pre-sale at Shinjuku Isetan pop-up

Jan 27, 2023
A unique style - Y's, the first brand created by Yohji Yamamoto in 1972, is itself Yamamoto's thoughts and philosophy on clothing creation. Always moving forward, it expresses its identity based on an unchanging philosophy. Through its creations, Y's looks back on its 50-year history and strives to create even more.


"Y's 1972 - Y's x adidas" joins the various capsule collections created under the "Y's 1972" banner. The full details of the Japan-exclusive collection, which also features apparel, will be revealed at the "Y's x adidas" pop-up store, which will be open for a limited time from February 15th to 21st at the Isetan Shinjuku store, before being released at Y's stores nationwide from March 1st. A "Y's x adidas" pop-up store will also be open at the Isetan Urawa store from March 1st to 7th.

The striking cactus flower designs featured in the collection were created by Kyoto-based designer Fumihiko Hayashi, a close friend of Y's, and are applied to the clothing using a special print that creates a three-dimensional effect by partially bleeding the pigment, or by embroidery.

The vibrant cactus flowers, classic shapes and colors, and the three stripes and Trefoil motifs of traditional sportswear brands—all of which are iconic and unique—appear in active, modern silhouettes that exude a classic weight.

The shape of the wings (through which the shoelaces pass) that curve along the cap towards the toe have also been updated to a straighter style, offering a more refined design.

Y's
Y's is the first brand created by Yohji Yamamoto in 1972, and with it, it represents Yamamoto's thoughts and philosophy on clothing design. The origins lie in the concept of women wearing men's clothing, and the creation of clothing for independent women with timeless values. Functional and elegant everyday wear. Within its own unique category, Ys's creations are shaped by universal values and unique pattern making. The clothing is created with a focus on cutting and silhouette, making the most of the texture of the material, and respecting the air, volume, and balance that emerge between the wearer's body and the clothing. The current atelier team, who have inherited this philosophy, embody the brand's identity and a collection that offers functional, high-quality ready-to-wear.
