adidas Strengthens The Y-3 Raito Racer With External Forefoot Armor

Spawned from the eccentric black-dressed mind of Yohji Yamamoto, adidas Y-3 continues to expand on the technical, modern day ninja inspired toolings with this forthcoming Raito Racer only testifying to that fact. Arriving armored up from its more simple predecessors, the Primeknit runner is seeing its way to battle blacked out throughout most of its many accents. Woven uppers display monochrome threads with sections underneath the darker tint poking through in a contrasting white; this shade finds place along the emblazoned tongue branding and ribbed collar detailing though not at all on the attached BOOST sole unit. Overlaid components towards the forefoot, which double up as the pair’s eye stay, show off in a plastic sheen, adding support to what has yet to see it. Grab a detailed look right here and find it hitting select retailers as well as adidas.com come July 15th.
