Is this jacket actually waterproof?

No. The nylon taffeta is water-repellent, so it shrugs off drizzle and wind, but it has no hood and no taped seams. Treat it as a light weather layer, not a rain shell.

How does it fit compared with a regular adidas bomber?

Y-3 cuts run looser and longer through the body. Most shoppers take their usual size for a relaxed fit, or size down for something closer to a standard adidas bomber.

Is it warm enough for winter?

It is unlined and uninsulated, so it works for spring, fall and mild winter days over a sweater. In freezing weather you need a proper coat underneath or instead.

Just the jacket. There is no hood, no packable pouch and no extra insulation included.

How do I care for the water-repellent finish?

Wash cold on a gentle cycle and skip fabric softener, which coats the fibers and reduces repellency. Tumble low or hang dry, and re-treat the fabric if water stops beading.

Is it worth it over a standard adidas bomber?

You are paying for the Yohji Yamamoto design and the quieter branding, not for better weatherproofing. If you want a technical shell, a dedicated outdoor brand gives more protection for less.

Our take on the adidas Y-3 Men's Jacket With Pockets

This is a Y-3 bomber jacket in water-repellent nylon taffeta, with a jersey stand collar, hem and cuffs, press-stud front, zip hand pockets and a bonded logo at the back. Y-3 is adidas's long-running collaboration with Yohji Yamamoto, so the cut is looser and more fashion-forward than a standard adidas bomber, and the branding is quieter. It suits someone who wants a light, weather-resistant layer that reads as designer rather than sportswear. Against a plain nylon bomber it adds the Yamamoto silhouette and water repellency; against technical shells it gives up taped seams and a hood.

What reviewers say
