adidas and Yohji Yamamoto reunite once again for two new updated versions of their collaborative ‘Gazelle’ silhouette in black and white. Earlier this year, adidas and Y-3 released the first iterations of the ‘Gazelle,’ which featured a wide sole unit and Y-3 branding for added flair. The updated features of the sneakers now come with brand-new mudguards and exposed stitching. Additionally, suede patches cover the upper and the mudguard, while leather is used for the heel. Debossed Y-3 branding sits at the heel, the Three Stripes come with additional layering and paneling, and Yohji Yamamoto’s signature in grey foil lettering also appears on the lateral side.
The Y-3 x adidas ‘Gazelle’ in black and white is now available at select retailers like Aphrodite. The sneakers retail for approximately $270 USD.
