SALOMON X MAISON MARGIELA
MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon mark a new phase in their ongoing design partnership - a celebration of a shared ethos of innovative, transitional design - with the release of their first ready-to-wear collaboration.
Split into two families – Gore-Tex and Seamless – this sophisticated, minimalist capsule collection of garments and accessories combines universal classics with fundamental codes from the brands’ respective universes, a pure-blend distillation of MM6 Maison Margiela’s iconic styles rendered with Salomon’s cutting-edge activewear technology and manufacturing process.
CROSS LOW MM6 MAISON MARGIELA
MM6 design studio delivers a progressive urban spin on the iconic Salomon ACS PRO 2 MM6 MAISON MARGIELA running shoe, revisiting it in sleek concrete gray with muted silver accents or in a rubberized matte black version with a contrasting glossy tar-black structure that recalls an exoskeleton, heightening the shoe’s dark industrial aesthetic.
A radical twist on the SALOMON Speedcross trail-running shoe, with new low proportions and a specially designed lug sole – also returns in two fresh color treatments, with striking tonal combos of bubblegum pink and bright red or an almond and army green version offset with an acid yellow detail on the heel encased with dark forest green
The shoe’s signature drawstring gaiter-style ripstop nylon closure – connected to its hi-tech molded composite sole via taped waterproof seams,
with a reflective strip for the green style – evokes both an extreme sports parka and old-school waterproof galoshes, fusing past and future in an
idiosyncratic MM6 Maison Margiela design signature.
About MM6 Maison Margiela
Launched in 1997, MM6 Maison Margiela continuously reimagines the wardrobe with wit and irreverence. We offer
collections that subtly nod to the Maison’s archive while standing entirely on their own. Sartorial conventions
are routinely bent and broken. Conceptual essentials are created using unique fabric treatments, resulting in a
distinctive wardrobe that spans All-Gender ready-to-wear, footwear, accessories and leather goods. A horizontal
line of white stitches attaching the MM6 label to the back of the garment is distinctly visible from the exterior.
