The Spring/Summer 2018 luxurious athletic wear is shot by London-based photographer Alessio Bolzoni. The cobra and leopard illustrations are featured on a lush jungle background and are designed by Taishi Hayashi -- a familiar collaborator to Yohji Yamamoto. The Y-3 2018 lookbook features jungle-inspired navy prints, as well as vibrant red hues that offer a bold nuance to the monochrome coloring of the remaining pieces in the collection.
