Fashion house 1017 ALYX 9SM introduces a new tonal iteration of the Mono Boot design in an all-black colorway palette. The sleek new look continues to grow the house's ongoing footwear line. The shoes are designed with leather, expanding the capabilities of the material.
The slip-on design has a molded design and is detailed with an EVA foam outer section. Additional details include the square toe shape that is further accented with futuristic paneling that starts at the toe box and continues around to the lateral side of the shoe and upwards to the ankle. To round out the silhouette, there is a custom 1017 ALYX 9SM branding that is seen detailing the open-air ankle area.
