The Tabi Western boots are crafted from calf leather and have an almond shaped toe, a new take on the iconic design. Maison Margiela's signature white stitch appears at the rear. The Tabi split-toe is influenced by the traditional 15th century Japanese sock of the same name, first introduced in the Maison's debut collection in 1989. It embodies the rebellious and avant-garde essence of the Maison and remains a timeless piece, continuously reimagined in each collection.
