Yohji Yamamoto and Shinsuke Takizawa Reunite for a Special Range of Apparel and Hybrid Kicks
The dynamic duo of Yohji Yamamoto and Shinsuke Takizawa have once again joined forces, this time to create a moto culture-inspired collection that is sure to turn heads. The two have a history of successful collaborations, and this latest venture is no exception.
Introducing the “Y-3 NEIGHBORHOOD” Collection
The “Y-3 NEIGHBORHOOD” collection is a fusion of the two brands’ unique styles, resulting in a bold and edgy range of apparel and footwear. The collection features a range of leather racer jackets and pants, all adorned with special co-branding and produced in Europe by Dainese.
A New Moniker and Custom Designs
One of the standout features of the collection is the new moniker, Y-3-N, which combines the names of the three partners into one. This motif can be seen on a custom motorcycle by Cherryscompany and a set of one-of-one moto helmets by David Gwyther, aka Death Spray Custom. Gwyther also created graphics for the collection, including a scorpion, frog, and moth, which are featured on t-shirts.
A Familiar-Yet-Fresh Silhouette
The collection also includes the Y-3 NBHD Nizzastar Lo, a hybrid sneaker that combines the Nizza and Superstar silhouettes. This unique design is a perfect representation of the collaboration between NEIGHBORHOOD and Y-3.
Get Ready for the Launch
The “Y-3 NEIGHBORHOOD” collection is set to launch on October 25th via adidas. However, the custom one-of-one moto helmets and motorcycle will not be available for purchase. Stay tuned for more updates and get ready to add some moto-inspired pieces to your wardrobe.
