Is this a trainer or is it a shoe? We're not quite sure ourselves though what we are certain of is that once again, Yohji Yamamoto has fused together the characteristics of a classic leather shoe with the modern styling of a performance sneaker. A brand new style for Spring-Summer 12, the Adidas Y3 Garde Low gives you everything you want from a luxury sports shoe silhouette. Produced using a ultra-premium soft shine leather upper with velcro fastening & minimal Y3 branding. The leather upper has been unusually split mid-way with canvas-like panelling
- which we feel looks fantastic. The modern technology arrives in the shape of the Adidas adi Prene sole unit, specially designed by scientists at Adidas HQ, which adds cushioning & protection whilst absorbing impact in the heel & providing propulsion & better dynamic movement in the forefoot. An overall luxuriously produced & styled performance shoe (or trainer!!).
