French fashion house Maison Margiela was originally founded in 1988 by the elusive Belgian designer Martin Margiela. Currently helmed by British designer John Galliano, the label plays with themes of deconstructionism and reinterpretation. The brand fuses a grunge-twist of asymmetric detailing with an unconventional elegance to everyday essential pieces. These black and white leather classic low-top sneakers are a staple piece and feature a round toe, a flat sole, a lace fastening and a brand embossed insole.
