Sustainability meets Sportswear: Ding Yun Zhang x adidas

Dingyun Zhang, the fashion designer known for his innovative and sustainable designs, recently took to Instagram to tease a collaboration with sportswear giant adidas. The designer, who previously worked with Ye at YEEZY and helped design the YEEZY 700 Wave Runner, posted an Instagram story featuring an adidas shoebox with his eponymous label's branding alongside the adidas trefoil logo.

The collaboration with adidas is not entirely unexpected, as both Dingyun Zhang and adidas have previously collaborated with Moncler Genius. The Moncler Genius collaborations have resulted in some of the most innovative and exciting fashion designs in recent years and the collaboration between Dingyun Zhang and adidas has the potential to do just the same.

Zhang is a graduate of Central Saint Martins, one of the best fashion universities in the world. He has been making waves in the fashion industry with sustainable and functional designs prioritising long-term comfort and functionality. His manifesto is "a theoretical bond of sustainable ideas about long-term comfort, materials, and functionality."
