ADIDAS Y-3: SPRING / SUMMER 2024 COLLECTION
Continuing adidas and Yohji Yamamoto's renegade exploration of elevated sportswear, Y-3's Spring/Summer 2024 collection focuses on the concept of Contra-Natural - a world in which the duality between the organic and the synthetic produces unexpected beauty. With visceral juxtaposition as its ethos, the collection offers a nod to the delicately poised tension at the heart of the Y-3 brand: adidas' legacy of sporting innovation coming together with Yohji Yamamoto's elegant, avant garde, aesthetic philosophy.
From concept to execution, the idealogical collision of the natural and the artificial manifests in a bold, collection-wide, color palette. The brand's signature pantones are all present - Y-3 Black, Solid Gray, and White - but this season they're complimented with Clay Brown, Mesa, Shadow Red, and Mint. Staying true to the collection's thematic impetus, the quartet of new colors takes inspration from the process of oxidation, with nature taking over metal, turning rusty burgundy into an acidic mint.
Release Info: Y-3's Spring/Summer 2024 Collection is now available Online and In-Store at SNEAKERBOX Metrotown.
Price: $115 - $780 CAD
ADIDAS STAN SMITH 'PRIMEGREEN'
With over half a century of lineage, the adidas Stan Smith has solidified itself as one of the most iconic sneaker silhouettes of all-time. Most notably through its simple design, the Stan Smith has gone on to inspired countless court sneakers after it. Sporting a simple flat low-profile outsole, leather upper, perforated 'Three Stripes' and green on white colorway, the original '65 version has seen a slew re-releases and reimagined iterations - most recently, this all-new 'Primegreen' series.
A push to sustainability by the German-based sportswear brand - the classic silhouette is constructed as part of the label's 'Primegreen' line utilizing a series of high performance recycled materials. The Stan Smith stays true to tradition with its white leather upper with perforated 'Three Stripes' branding on each side, available in 2 different white examples. The first features added details to the design including a green heel, and printed doodle graphics placed over top over the entirety of the upper with an off-white rubber sole to complete the look. The second - a more subtle execution, sees a primarily white upper and matching midsole, with doodle graphics at the heel.
Release Info: The adidas Stan Smith 'Primegreen' is now available In-Store and Online.
