German sportswear giant Adidas and travel goods company Samsonite have joined forces in which the maker of travel bags will manufacture and distribute Y-3 accessories.

Y-3 is a collaboration between Adidas and Japanese ready-to wear designer Yohji Yamamoto. The apparel is a combination of fashion and sportswear, and the new accessories lines will reflect the same mood.

According to WWD, this is the first accessories license and the Y-3 travel accessories and leather goods produced by Samsonite will start with goods retailing for next spring.

Samsonite has dabbled in the luxury and fashion sector the past several years, with collaborations with designers such as Alexander McQueen, Marc Newson and Viktor & Rolf.

Samsonite also has a signature Black Label luxury luggage line.
