Yohji Yamamoto‘s adidas Y-3 label has taken a backseat to imprints like Kanye West’s, but it continues to deliver eye-catching designs. The latest proposition is the Y-3 Kaiwa, which returns to a timeless, two-tone “White/Black” arrangement.

Throughout Fall 2020, the robust silhouette appeared in a season-appropriate “Trace Kahki” suede option. Its forthcoming iteration partially indulges in the premium fabric, but mostly boasts a high-quality leather construction. The simple upper is split between “White” from midfoot to forefoot, while the “Y-3“-branded heel proffers stark “Black” contrast. Protruding detailing across the midsole revert to a pristine light hue, while cushioning and its accompanying tread opt for an off-white scheme.

Enjoy official images of the latest Y-3 Kaiwa here below, and expect pairs to hit adidas.com ahead of spring.

Elsewhere under the adidas umbrella, an Arizona Superstar arrives soon.
