Product Insights

Y-3's velvet zip-up hooded sweatshirt marries Yohji Yamamoto's black, oversized, asymmetrical design DNA with adidas sportswear functionality, pioneered by the first high-fashion sportswear collaboration. The deconstructed silhouette uses dropped shoulders and a two-way zip for adjustable, asymmetrical styling, with an exaggerated oversized fit (size L: 78 cm armpit width, 84 cm sleeve length) that layers under coats or over tees. Despite requiring cold machine washing in a garment bag and line drying, a full polyester inner lining protects the velvet from abrasion, though pilling may occur with friction. At 375 CAD, it undercuts Y-3's tech-fabric zip-ups by 124–190 CAD. Its deliberately understated Y-3 logo—a bold sans-serif ironic repudiation of loud luxury—bridges streetwear and refined looks, embodying the brand's no-taboos freedom.
