Martin Margiela remains a fashion forefather, avant-garde pioneer and symbol of the anti-fashion circuit. Swimming against the current of haute couture in the late 1980’s, Margiela reworked the seams of the fashion industry in spite of previously retained social norms. The creative worked in conjunction with his team to deconstruct each and every preconceived notion of wearable art, crafting pieces far ahead of their time. Margiela built a new understanding of clothing behind a wall of intense anonymity, letting each piece speak for both itself and the Maison. Martin Margiela questioned the industry and in turn the audience, making for enthralling collections over many decades.

This classic pair of Tabi heels is one of Margiela’s most renowned designs, integrating the split toe design that originated in Japan for a more balanced and grounded footwear option. With a black calfskin leather finish, these heeled Tabi boots are a timeless variation and have been Vibram soled to protect them from wearing down easily. Size US 8 (41) in fantastic overall condition.
