waiting for these whiteblack qasas to go on sale on the y3 site, does anyone know around what time they do their spring sale?
 
First triple blacks released and primeknit

Not a fan of y3 sport expected it to be much better and this is coming from someones who's a y-3 fanatic and spends so much on the clothes as well as the shoes

question: got a pair of zg's from nordstrom @ the grove. Without thinking just bought em after trying them on then got home and realized it didn't come with a dustbag. It should have come with a dustbag and extra laces correct? came with neither

Yes it should've. What price did you get if u don't mind sayin?
 
If it wasn't such a pain in the @ss to go to the grove I would say go back and get a discount, but unless you live close to there, it's probly not worth dealing with that mess
 
Got a pair of the Y3 Approach and overall a good concept but wasn't executed well.

This really could have benefited from having a primeknit upper than the leather/pleather upper, it looks real loose and just has no structure to it, it looks wide and somewhat awkward from the top view because of the material. Shape would have been better with primeknit or other more pliable material that will stretch to create a better shape and silhouette. You can kind of see on the pics that the pleather upper is creating folds and shapes because it's just too loose.

Shoe is nice to look at but for the price, definitely should have been better. Also disappointing that they used the old sole with the old rubber nubs that disintegrates if you breathe on it.

RFX45 thanks for the pics and the info. Definetly like them better on feet. I wll try on cop once they hit thesale rack.
 
They do look good, it's the small details that most probably won't notice that somewhat bugs me.

how do they feel?

Pretty comfortable, similar to UBs. I think I might actually like this more actually because I have a high instep and the UBs cage hurts the top of my foot after a few hours of wear.

While the Y3 Approach isn't perfect, it's hard to put into words but the part I boxed out below is the one I am talking about, if you have a high-instep, that could be bothersome as it pushes down but once I stretched it a bit with some force, it became more manageable, that wasn't possible possible with the UBs upper alogn with the cage because the primeknit actually is knitted tighter in that area and there isn't much give (surprisngly) and if you try to stretch it, it just goes back to it's original shape.

I know it seems contradictory when I initially said a primeknit upper is better but that is with a few tweaks where they have to make it more pliable but not too pliable that the shape becomes saggy. I am not sure if I am making nay sense at all :lol

As for the ankle socks, it's comfortable, it isn't as constricting as Nikes iterations, it's actually more like an ankle turtle neck or ankle cuff because it's pretty soft and real pliable. I guess that is one thing that could be worrisome, it might droop after a while but I don't think it's going to be an issue, shoe is probably going to be beat to a point of no return by the time that happens especially with the old nubby rubber sole.
