Maison Margiela and Tommy Cash teamed up to create a pair of luxury slippers inspired by bread. The ergonomic slippers offer a literal take on the word "loafers," as they not only look like bread but they're also packaged in clear plastic bags that resemble familiar food packaging.
The luxury slippers are full of details that promise to delight fashion fans and foodies alike, as there are black embroidery logos, soles that resemble slices of fluffy bread and upper portions that look like freshly baked loaves with carefully placed scoring.
The Maison Margiela x Tommy Cash Loafers have been released along with a series of products, including other food-themed art pieces like ramen. The collab also includes other wearables like striped sweaters and shirts.
