After reworking the FYW S-97 earlier this summer, the creative genius that is Yohji Yamamoto is back with the brand new adidas Y-3 ZX Torsion White Black! Giving the ZX Torsion his unique, instantly recognisable flair, we can’t think of any reason why you wouldn’t cop this shoe!
Painted in an ultra clean white and grey colour palette, the ’80s cult classic has been given a contemporary twist. Boasting an ultra breathable mesh upper, it’s filled to the brim with ultra luxe code such as full grain leather across the lacing system and buttery smooth suede panels on the lateral and medial side panels, as well as the heel region.
A gigantic pull tab graces the heel, and this is pencilled in with Yamamoto iconic signature, like an artist signing his work. To round it all off, a full length Boost midsole has been embedded within a soft foam unit, and this is infused with adidas’ legendary Torsion technology for support and stability like nothing else out there.
When it comes to Yohji Yamamoto x adidas collaborations, this takes the cake as one of the best ones yet. If you’re interested in copping the adidas Y-3 ZX Torsion White Black, it’s releasing on August 21st for £255. While this may seem like a pretty high price tag to begin with, you need to bear in mind the pure artistry and high quality materials behind the shoe.
