Okay, Yohji Yamamoto is one of my favorite designers and for several years now he has done a collaboration with Adidas with a  sportswear line and this season does not disappoint.

The clothes have the classic Yamamoto cut, flowy and elegant, and yet, somehow it’s sportswear (so Yohji!)

Since the show was in London this is yet another collection influenced by the Olympic games.  But this one has been filtered through a street aesthetic (a high-end street aesthetic, but one none-the-less) with London inspired Mod graphics, the Union Jack and durable workwear.

As Yohji’s creativity knows no bounds don’t you just love these kicks?  I’m sure the  Olympians will be fighting over this one.  Maybe that could be one of the games…
