Designer Yohji Yamamoto introduces a new set of graphic tote bags for the Fall/Winter 2020 season to join its [Y-3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contranatural) offerings -- which as referenced in the namesake, is inspired by the visuals of graphic prints. The seasonal carrying design is constructed from technical canvas materials and give the piece a vintage design language.

The front of the bag features branding accents that nod to Y-3 and iconography that is true to [adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/y3-fw25-tennis). The graphics that detail the bag are disruptive and include prints that reference waves or tears as well as glaring eyes and a pouty lip that adorn the bag in a collage-like aesthetic. The minimal look features black lining as a slight touch of contrast, two handles and a snap button as the enclosure.
