Y-3 JAMES HARDEN INSPIRED CAPSULE

Posted on 2018-02-14

Y-3 reveals a capsule collection that sees Basketball superstar, James Harden, through the lens of adidas and Yohji Yamamoto.

The Botan flower, known as “The King of Flowers”, is the collection centrepiece: a symbol of bravery, nobility, honour, respect & good fortune. These qualities uniquely describe James Harden both on & off court. The Y-3 BYW BBall – first seen on the runway in January – makes its debut by translating his style from court to street. BYW stands for ‘BOOST you wear’.

The six piece capsule of apparel, footwear and accessories will be pre-launched on FEB 16th & 17th in Los Angeles at 747 Warehouse St. The range will expand to a global release in April.

SIZE? X ASICSTIGER GEL-LYTE OG ’36 VIEWS’

Posted on 2018-02-12

Size? team up with ASICSTIGER to create a traditionally themed rendition of the GEL-Lyte OG. The ’36 Views’ themed runner features colourways focused around the paintings of celebrated Ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai, with the palette picking hues from his legendary block-printed series of artworks that captured Mount Fuji from varying viewpoints around Japan.

The ASICSTIGER GEL-Lyte OG ’36 Views’ features innovative details throughout, including a water resistant suede upper, ripstop toebox, and featured for the very first time on this silhouette, branded pull tabs on both the tongue and heel. The water-resistant suede and ripstop upper draws reference to the bodies of water featured within several of the paintings from the series of Hokusai works, in particular the infamous ‘Great Wave’ featured in painting number one. The pink tone found throughout is pulled from the seasonal Cherry Blossoms that sprout from the branches of trees around Japan at only a very specific time of the year.

Limited to 500 pairs.
