In case you aren’t aware, Y-3 is the collaboration between Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto and the athletic giant, Adidas. With that kept in mind, I finally get their sporty yet fashionable designs among their goods and accessories. I never found their bags to be too attractive. I apologize to any fans out there, but black nylon on a typical silhouette isn’t all that fun. Fortunetly, Y-3 is expanding their look from the basic nylon to fresh designs with lots of color.

Y-3 Klacks Red Shoulder Bag is a perfect example of this. It’s so different and fun. Here we have a circular shoulder bag in white and red patent leather, that’s definitely spring/ summer ready. I think this is cute, but would I give into this bag? I most definitely wouldn’t. It’s not my style and besides appearance and quality, I also seek comfort ability in a handbag. Round shoulder bags aren’t necessarily perfect for everyday wear, I can just picture sitting this down and the bag see-sawing or rolling away a short distance. Ladies, what’s your input on this piece?

Measuring 15” x 3”, you can find the Y-3’s Klacks bag for $430 over at: ssense.com
