Y-3 Return with Monochrome Discipline and Yohji Drama

and are back in the studio, and the Spring/Summer 2026 collection proves the partnership’s renegade energy is still very much alive. Dropping December 1, the new chapter pushes deeper into the brands' long-running conversation between sport functionality and avant-garde disruption.

Shot by longtime collaborator Oscar Foster-Kane, the Chapter 1 Lookbook channels a heavy dose of mood. Everything is staged in that classic Y-3 pocket between softness and intensity, giving the visuals a quiet menace.

This season, Y-3 keep the palette stripped back to pure monochrome, letting construction and shape do the loud talking. Padded bombers puff the silhouette outward, flowing cargos cut things loose again, and raw-cut hems add a hit of intentional imperfection. The big innovation is the wired Three Stripes: flexible, sculptable lines that let the wearer bend, twist and contort their garment into personalised architecture. It’s Y-3’s take on DIY futurism.

Sneakerheads get a curated sweep of heavy hitters. The militant GSG9 boot returns with unexpected brogue detailing. The immortal morphs into the sleeker Y-3 Stan Low Pro. Legacy silhouettes like the Y-3 Nizzastar Hi, Tokyo, and Regu Low stay in their moody monochrome lanes, while the new Y-3 Adizero RC6 drags purebred running tech into the streets.

The Y-3 Spring/Summer 2026 Lookbook lands December 1 via adidas, Y-3 stores, and select retailers.
