Certain anniversaries have been a constant drumbeat through 2025, of course highlighted by the Jumpman’s overarching festivities, but also provided with select retailer celebrations. END. is one of the most notable of that crowd, ringing in 20 years in business through a rangy run of collaborations that now brings Y-3 into their canon of adidas link-ups.

Brought back into the fold earlier this year with three inline looks, the adidas Y-3 A3 Control is the silhouette of choice here, reviving a 2002 silhouette highlighted by the springy A3 cushioning embedded in the heel. For their take on the throwback shoe, END. keeps to the leather and suede script that paces black, white, and all-red pairs already on the market, yet brings the platinum and emerald color palette they’ve already utilized as a hallmark of their 20th anniversary product. A debossed END. logo on the heel rounds out the package, otherwise delivering a ton of simplistic Y2K appeal.

The The END. x adidas Y-3 A3 Control releases on June 4th via the retailer’s site, commanding a $350 sticker price. A track set, comprised of a tee, top, and pant, will also be coming alongside. The launch is already live via their webstore — get your entries in using the “Where To Buy” links ahead.
