Y-3 x adidas Adizero Electric+ 11 Beast Pack Releases September 16
Y-3 and adidas commemorate two decades since the original Beast Pack with a performance-focused reissue mounted on the Adizero Electric+ 11 platform. Four expressive colorways—each anchored by fauna imagery—arrive as earnest football cleats rather than lifestyle adaptations, dropping September 16 at $230.
By Ava Rodriguez
Twenty years after its initial debut, the Beast Pack emerges from the Y-3 archive not as a nostalgic reissue for casual wear, but as a functional football boot. The collaboration between Yohji Yamamoto's Y-3 line and adidas repositions the collection's signature menagerie—wolves, tigers, eagles, and dragons rendered across each shoe's upper—onto technical performance footwear. This shift marks a departure from the lifestyle trajectory the Pack previously occupied, grounding the project's theatrical design language in the demands of pitch play.
Design Details
The Adizero Electric+ 11 serves as the host silhouette, a modern construction defined by Primeknit uppers and multi-surface traction geometry. Rather than reimagine the Beast Pack's visual identity, Y-3 and adidas apply the original four colorway schemes directly to the cleats' top half, preserving the fauna's physiological proportions and placement. The approach prioritizes the beast imagery as a cohesive design system across the pack rather than isolated graphic flourishes—a distinctly Yamamoto methodology that elevates performance-driven minimalism with conceptual depth.
The Beast Pack's Evolution
The original Beast Pack's legacy sits at the intersection of fashion and sport—pieces that demanded attention both off and on the pitch. By returning to this collection two decades later and channeling it through adidas's football engineering, the collaboration acknowledges how performance footwear has become inseparable from streetwear discourse. The decision to retrofit beast iconography onto the Adizero Electric+ 11 rather than resurrect a lifestyle silhouette signals Y-3's continued willingness to interrogate the boundaries between categories.
