Y-3 Transforms Tennis Wear with Performance-Driven Innovation
by Adriano Batista
Tennis style gets a fresh perspective with Y-3’s latest high-performance collection, merging athletic function with avant-garde design. Debuting at the season’s final major tournament in New York, the lineup rethinks tennis apparel through a lens of technical precision and artistic vision.
The 18-piece unisex collection takes cues from Japanese Suibokuga ink painting, translating its fluid artistry into structured garments with unexpected asymmetrical details. Crisp lines meet expressive graphics, creating a visual language that elevates traditional court wear.
Every element serves a purpose. Advanced CLIMACOOL fabrics manage moisture for optimal comfort, while smart features like concealed zippers, built-in ball pockets in skirts, and supportive inner bras address players’ practical needs without sacrificing style.
Key items include the Y-3 WOW Dress with its painterly motifs and the Y-3 Tennis FreeLift T-Shirt Pro, both showcasing the brand’s signature aesthetic. The footwear selection reworks classic adidas tennis silhouettes—including the Defiant Speed 2 and Adizero Ubersonic 5, with Y-3’s distinctive edge.
Photographer Michael Hauptman’s campaign captures adidas stars like Jessica Pegula and Stefanos Tsitsipas in atmospheric training scenes, highlighting the dedication behind elite performance. The images shift focus from match-point drama to the quiet intensity of preparation.
