Luxury fashion house Maison Margiela unveils two new iterations of its Replica model, highlighting a construction that focuses on futuristic textiles. The first option is adorned in Neoprene materials throughout the uppers and finished in a muted burgundy colorway detailed with light fraying materials at the seams.
The uppers boast a shiny finish and it hit with black laces to contrast and it also delivers numerical branding details at the tongue area. The toe box is shaped like a triangle and it flows over the front panels. The second colorway is spotlighted by a patent leather construction that features a red line over the inner collar for some juxtaposing designs. To round off the sneaker are white threads that adorn the heel panel and rounded off with black midsoles on both options.
