Y-3 launched the new RUNNER 4D IO sneaker model, which is a hybrid design that merges two into one. The outer layer around the upper is made from technical mesh material. This covers the interiors' removable Primeknit design, offering it in two colorway options. The two hues are either Footwear white with black or black with Trace Khaki.
The design is technical and futuristic, the white one has a clear mesh layer that covers the inside. The interior is unique as well as it has a detachable Primeknit sock that is detailed with Y-3 logos. Branding can also be seen at the mesh lining reading "YOHJI YAMAMOTO" before rounded out with the full length 4D midsole.
