Yohji Yamamoto x adidas Tennis: The Roland Garros Collection

Looking toward the 2015 French Open, adidas Tennis and Y-3 exhibit the adidas Roland Garros Collection by Y-3 in a new video featuring tennis players Ana Ivanovic and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, as well as designer and living legend Yohji Yamamoto. The collection combines Y-3’s distinctive aesthetic with adidas’ innovative performance technology. Yamamoto discusses the concepts behind the performance wear, offering such insights as “you need some chaos which has to be swallowed by new power.” I’m not sure what that means but it sounds cool, and definitely embodies the spirit of the stylized, slow motion video.
