All black retro boost, recent release.Which retro
The thing I notice about Adidas is that a lot of their shoes run narrow (at least compared to the fit of my Nike's). I think Y-3 is no different, if not even slightly more narrow. All my Y-3's, my feet are hanging off slightly or just barely at the edge (even the QR Boosts that I went half size up). Doesn't help that they use minimalist/stretchy material that doesn't give as much structure. Maybe if you start wearing Adidas at an early age or for years, your foot will conform like that, but I'd say that some of these shoes are not friendly to the wide-footed or odd-boned.
I think this also can be attributed to the lack of instep support some of their sneakers have in general. Meant more for fashion than utility.I agree as well, a good portion of my foot hangs off the side of the shoe when I step. Y-3 are made with really narrow footed people in mind and I love the brand but I am not one of those people.
I would just take them back and get cash then buy my sz, or atleast a store that carries them will prolly atleast give you store creditAnyone willing to help me with a trade I'll throw a lil cash on top
I agree, more for looks verse support. I'm guessing the adidas ultra boost is more supportive because it's made for running. Gonna grab me.

Ultraboosts are definitely more supportive. The prime knit is overall just tighter and the cage does a good enough job locking the foot in place (same with the heel counter). Wish they could incorporate some more of this "tech" into the Y-3 brand since they're charging double the price, but production cost of the shoe is probably not much higher (although I'm sure the production run is smaller, which adds to the cost).I agree, more for looks verse support.

Wait for a sale. Just curiuous how do you know they will come out next year? I definitely want to pick up a pair.
I been trying to find a pair of black/white qasa high and learned another is being released for the S/S16 collection.
For those who copped qasa highs, should I just cop them for retail when they come out? or wait for some sort of sale?
let me know, this will be my first pair of y-3s
