Originally founded in 1988 by the elusive Belgian designer Martin Margiela, the label is currently helmed by British designer John Galliano, and plays with themes of deconstructionism and reinterpretation. These low top black cotton sneakers from Maison Margiela feature a lace-up front fastening, stitching details, a logo patch at the tongue, a flat rubber sole, eyelets, branding on the side and signature number patch at the back of outsole.
