What happens when the fashion poetry of a Japanese designer meets the technological perfection of Adidas? You get a collection that is equally at home at Paris Fashion Week as it is at a city marathon. This is the adidas Y-3 Fall/Winter 2025 Running Collection!
When we talk about the future of running fashion, Y-3 (cooperation between Yohji Yamamoto and Adidas) has been writing its own rules for almost two decades. And even in the season autumn/winter 2025 is no different. The new collection is a bold journey through the world of form, function and creativity – exactly as we expect, yet still surprising us time and time again.
Inspired by the artistic “spray dye” approach and imbued with the energy of running, the collection connects sports innovation from Adidas with Y-3's signature aesthetic. The result is comprehensive running collection, which is sophisticated, functional and (to be honest) looks damn good. It's not just about the equipment - it's about the state of mind of the modern runnerwho doesn't want to choose between speed and style.
Spray-dye magic: When a garment becomes a work of art
The central motif of the collection is Amber Ink, a unique print that uses a new “spray-dye” technique to create dynamic gradients, ombré effects and expressive patterns. This makes each piece visually unique – almost like a fashionable version of fingerprints. Color palette of gray, red and black is anything but boring – it acts as a canvas on which Yamamoto poured out his creativity.
From a running sprint to a brunch espresso
The collection covers all the needs of the modern sporty minimalist – with maximum aesthetic impact. Key pieces include:
-
- long and short sleeve shirts,
- sports tops,
- shorts and leggings,
- multifunctional vests,
- and lightweight but thermally efficient running jackets.
The pieces are made of performance knitwear, which breathe, warm and do not sting. At the same time, every stitch and cut shows that these are not just clothes - this is a uniform of urban confidence.
adidas × Y-3 sneakers: When design runs faster than the wind
The main stars of the collection are, of course, the revamped sneakers from Adidas' legendary Adizero lines:
-
- Y-3 ADIOS 9
- and Y-3 ADIOS PRO 4.
Both models have undergone a visual makeover with a recognizable “painted effect” three-stripe motif – as if Yamamoto personally finished each pair with a paintbrush. And the color combinations? A true palette of running moods:
-
- Y-3 ADIOS PRO 4:
- black with white stripes,
- white with black stripes,
- red with white stripes.
- Y-3 ADIOS 9:
- black with white stripes,
- white with black stripes,
- yellow with black stripes.
- Y-3 ADIOS PRO 4:
A case of truly running models, optimized with Adidas' lightweight design technology and responsive soles, but in the Y-3 version also becomes a fashion manifesto. If you've ever dreamed of sneakers that work on the runway and at a gallery opening - here they are.
Lookbook: When the lens captures the movement of light
The photo story of the new collection was signed by a permanent Y-3 collaborator Thue Nørgaard, who created a series of images where light, color and composition dance with pieces from the collection. The lookbook doesn't just show clothes – it shows feeling of movement, an almost hypnotic meditation on the running pulse in the modern world.
