Product description
This Y-3 A/W 2006 Blackout Full Zip Ninja Hooded Sweatshirt is a striking example of the brand’s early avant-garde approach under Yohji Yamamoto’s direction. Crafted in heavyweight cotton jersey, this piece features a distinctive full-zip closure extending over the hood, creating a futuristic “ninja” silhouette that became a hallmark of Y-3’s early collections. The design blends sportswear functionality with Yamamoto’s directional tailoring, featuring oversized circular front pockets, structured ribbed trims, and a tonal chenille “Y” logo patch on the sleeve. The ergonomic cut and architectural hood construction showcase the brand’s fusion of performance and progressive style, embodying the pioneering aesthetic of Y-3’s formative years.
