Crafted from soft patent leather with an adjustable front strap, the Mary-Jane shoes feature a 6cm cylindrical heel and the Tabi split-toe. The toe shape was inspired by the traditional 15th century Japanese sock bearing the same name – launched for the Maison's debut collection in 1989. It is a symbol of the avant-garde and insubordinate spirit of the Maison and exists as a heritage classic, explored through the collections. Maison Margiela's signature white stitch appears at the back.
