Spring Summer 2023
The adidas Y-3 QISAN Knit is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, combining a knitted upper, neoprene inner sock, and elastic heel strap. These elements work together to deliver the best combinaison of comfort and support.
Drawing inspiration from Yohji Yamamoto's renowned appareil-design philosophy, the sneaker embraces the art of layering while infusing the timeless aesthetics of running sneakers and a Y-3 iconic silhouette : the Y-3 QASA low 2.
Paying homage to the iconic "Y-3 QASA low 2," which made a significant impact on sneaker culture back in 2015, the QISAN Knit replicates the same distinctive knit structure on the vamp area.
This nod to the past adds a touch of nostalgia while showcasing the evolution of the Y-3 collaboration.
This homage not only celebrates the heritage of the Y-3 collaboration
but also adds a touch of nostalgia for adidas & Yohji Yamamoto enthusiasts who have followed the journey.
The adidas Y-3 QISAN Knit comes in two colorways: black and white, and light blue and white.
Both options feature the iconic contrasted knit structure, paying homage to the Y-3 QASA Low 2
