Maison Margiela Men's Fusion Chunky Trainers - Black

No stranger to breaking boundaries, French fashion house Maison Margiela caused an instant stir in the fashion world with the introduction of the ‘Fusion' trainers. Taking the distressed trend to the extreme, the black chunky trainers draw inspiration from the fashion house’s pioneering work of the 1990s surrounding deconstruction.

The design takes each element of the traditional trainer construction and boldly disrupts it, working with an exaggerated running shoe silhouette. The black and grey laces are knotted and interlocked, escaping onto the sides of the shoe in a rebellion from conformity. Each pair is crafted by hand, the hot glue droplets symbolic of the human craftsmanship that has gone into their inception. Showcasing the parts of a shoe that are usually hidden beneath a refined outer, the ‘fusion’ trainers are covetable precisely because of their imperfection and rawness.
