Undersized Shoes

Maison Martin Margiela's Collectible Wedge is Unwearable

Maison Martin Margiela’s Undersized Shoes are making fashionistas go wild. Women are again craving the unattainable, as these shoes have been made in an unwearable size. Take a closer look at the shoes in the gallery; if you were to put them on, your heel would be hanging out over the back, making it extremely treacherous to walk in.

As the tag inside the shoe states, they are a special edition wedge sandal that have been created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the MMM label.
