Dubbed the adidas Y-3 Hayworth, this silhouette adds Yohji Yamamoto’s signature luxurious aesthetic into the fold by way of am over-tumbled leather construction, exposed stitching, and Y-3 branding scattered throughout. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Y-3 sneaker without Yamamoto’s signature firmly inscribed onto its upper, taking shape on this offering’s throat as well as its ankle collar in a contrasting white tone. Currently, pairs are available at select overseas retailers, so enjoy a detailed look below and stay tuned for updates regarding a potential Stateside drop.
