Y-3

Y-3 is a fashion brand born from a collaboration between Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto and the German sportswear company Adidas, officially launched in 2002. The name combines the initial “Y” from Yamamoto, the number “3” in reference to Adidas’s three stripes, and a hyphen symbolizing the union between fashion and sports. The brand fuses avant-garde tailoring and Japanese minimalist aesthetics with technical innovation and athletic performance. It has been a pioneer in integrating luxury and sports into a single concept, becoming a benchmark in fashion-sportswear and maintaining a constant presence on international runways and in the global premium streetwear market.
