Luxury fashion house Maison Margiela unveils the Airbag Tabi Boot as the latest addition to its iconic lineup of the Tabi cut silhouette. The modern update of the signature ankle boots are designed with inspiration drawn from the uniforms that were worn during the French resistance.
At the upper, it is constructed from premium calf leather materials and detailed with cracking white paint accents. It is complete in the signature split-toe design with an additional side hook-and-eye opening. It is the perfect design that balances traditional elements with contemporary design all at once. Rounding out the boots is the big stacked air-bubble heel unit which is also complete in the speckling paint accent alongside the branding numbers logo in a debossed manner.
