Y-3 Goes Sailing for SS ’19

Inspired by nautical influences, Y-3 has released an airy and athletic collection for Spring/Summer ’19. Designer Yohji Yamamoto referenced topics associated with sailing and parachuting — quite literally with the water-resistant satin Sailing Poncho and the Packable Jacket which features a zipped “parachute” pocket — to produce loose and dramatic pieces that experiment with shape and volume while retaining the label’s signature balance of elegance and edge. And just in case you’re not longing for spring enough already, the corresponding campaign was shot by Angelo Pennetta in Malibu.

The Y-3 SS ’19 collection will be available in stores and online on March 7. Check out some of the images below.

Paying homage to the eponymous brand’s founder, who was a member of the Geneva Yacht Club, while also enjoying today’s challenges, a new freelancer watch arrives to accompany the crew ahead.

The powerful design has a 42.5mm diameter case, echoing the dynamics of diving watches, a luminescent indicator, and unidirectional rotating bezel in black ceramic with white, green, or orange graduation, as well as a screwed-down crown. Readability is ensured by the Super-Luminova, and the folding clasp of its rubber watch strap with double push-security allows adjustment and resistance. After passing numerous tests of resistance to impact, magnetic waves, pressure, and temperature changes, the new timepiece showed values of performance, precision, and innovation.
